The Helsinki Summit and Future of Syria: Is Trump a Peacemaker?

Daraa, a city along the Lebanese border, was the scene of the first violent confrontations between armed groups and police in March 17 2011.

This year’s conference focused on the recent US embassy move …

Sri Lanka’s religious violence and the US pivot to Asia
Image source Recent inter-communal riots in Sri Lanka have highlighted the problem of religious extremism, particularly among Asia’s Buddhist population. But the Buddhist nationalist point of view has been largely ignored in favour of a discourse which demonises Buddhists as aggressors and portrays Muslims as innocent victims. The reality is far more complex. Part I A state of emergency has been introduced in Sri Lanka after an outbreak of violence between Buddhists and Muslims. According to reports, the violence erupted after a Buddhist truck driver was killed on the 4th of March by three inebriated Muslims, which was followed by …
