麻豆社 correspondents look ahead

Lyse Doucet is joined by Jon Sopel, Gabriel Gatehouse, Katya Adler, Rebecca Morelle and Faisal Islam to discuss what global issues are likely to dominate in 2020.

The end of the decade draws to a close and what a year it鈥檚 been. A US president impeached, people taking to the streets everywhere from Bolivia to Beirut, from Khartoum to Hong Kong. Young people everywhere found their voice - especially on our climate crisis, many inspired by teenage activist Greta Thunberg whose lonely protest grew to a millions strong cry.

As this year ends, some will breathe a sigh of relief that the world avoided another war in the Persian Gulf. But will North Korea鈥檚 unpredictable leader launch more long range missiles next year? Will ferocious fires and monster floods get worse and commitments get better at next year鈥檚 climate talks? And when we meet next year will it be President Trump 2.0 or a new man or woman in the White House?

So many big questions. But we have some of our big hitters here to provide plenty of answers.
