Owen Bennett Jones introduces the pick of this week's insights and analysis from correspondents around the world. This programme includes observations from: Jonathan Marcus on how Syria's crisis is testing the world's new diplomatic model; Kevin Connolly on the perennially ambivalent relationship between Turkey and the EU; Reggie Nadelson on the cultural romance of far-flung Vladivostok; Natalia Antelava on bribery and brutality in Kyrgyzstan; Peter Day on property and business moves in Cuba; Christine Finn in northern France and Ed Stourton on a road across the Pyrenees, both reflecting on ways to commemmorate the war dead; Ed Butler on the whistleblowers risking their lives to denounce corruption in India ... and Rahul Tandon on India's new generation of rather spoiled children.
