With the inauguration of Donald Trump as US President taking place tomorrow (20 January), BICOM held a podcast analysing the key issues in the Middle East and the likely effect of the Trump Presidency on them.

BICOM CEO James Sorene, Senior Research Fellow Professor Alan Johnson and Research Fellow Lauren Mellinger evaluate the current state of the Middle East, Trump’s likely policy decisions, and their possible implications on the Syrian War, Iran nuclear deal and Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

This podcast is an accompaniment to BICOM Forecast: The Middle East in 2017, a comprehensive assessment of the Middle East in the year ahead.
