Description

The Assad family ruled Syria for more than half a century, and that dynasty has come to an end. The rebel group Hayat Tahrir al Sham, or HTS, is consolidating control and will inherit an economy devastated by a decade of brutal civil war that cost 500,000 lives. What could economic recovery look like? Then, China preps for a U.S. trade war under Trump, and global criminals utilize cryptocurrency to launder money.
