Description

As campaigning begins to become the governor of Tokyo, we hear from Tomohiko Taniguchi, a former special adviser to the cabinet of Shinzo Abe, on who’s in the lead to run the world’s most populous city. Then: Canada lists Iran’s Revolutionary Guards as a terrorist group; and we hear from the United Nations deputy high commissioner for refugees, Kelly Clements, on the agency’s work with the likes of Ikea and Uniqlo to employ refugees. Plus: our weekly global countdown takes us to Sri Lanka.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
