Monocle 24: The Globalist

As the French election’s surprise results throw the country into new political turmoil, we give you the view from Brussels. Also in the programme: a new defence alliance in Asia to counter an increasingly assertive China, a look ahead to this week’s Nato summit with our correspondents in Washington and why Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is considering restoring ties with Syria. Plus, a flick through the papers and an exhibition of one of the UK’s largest private collections of space artefacts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
