Iran agrees to a framework for an historic nuclear deal, but questions over details remain. Al-Shabaab militants gun down 147 people at a university in Kenya. Rebels in Yemen advance on the port city of Aden despite airstrikes from a Saudi-led coalition. New evidence suggests the pilot of the Germanwings plane accelerated during descent. The Iraqi government declares victory over ISIS in its battle to take back Tikrit. And in Nigeria, a former general is elected president in the country’s first peaceful transfer of power. Moisés Naím joins Diane Rehm for analysis of the week’s top international news stories.

    After Ilia II: What Will a New Patriarch Mean for Georgia?

    The front-runner to succeed Ilia II, Metropolitan Shio, is prone to harsh anti-Western rhetoric and frequent criticism of “liberal ideologies” that he claims threaten the Georgian state. This raises fears that under his leadership the Georgian Orthodox Church will lose its unifying role and become an instrument of ultraconservative ideology.

    Lukashenko’s Bromance With Trump Has a Sell-By Date

    Lukashenko is willing to make big sacrifices for an invitation to Mar-a-Lago or the White House. He also knows that the clock is ticking: he must squeeze as much out of the Trump administration as he can before congressional elections in November leave Trump hamstrung or distracted.
