- Colombia Votes No: Back to civil war or prelude to a better bargain? (part 2)Is it back to civil war for Colombia? Or was Sunday's shock rejection of the deal to end 60 years of fighting with FARC rebels the prelude to a better bargain? We'll ask why voters failed by a narrow margin to approve the agreement. Where does it leave a Marxist guerrilla movement that for now insists it's still sticking by the deal? And what next for President Santos? Does he resign à la David Cameron after Brexit or can he forge a consensus with the no camp? Click here for PART ONE.Produced by Michele BARBERO, François WIBAUX and Van MEGUERDITCHIAN.26 min
- What's the deal with oil? Saudi Arabia's about-face on OPEC (part 2)Will OPEC really tighten production? Is Saudi Arabia, the world's largest oil producer, really feeling the pinch? The kingdom has just announced austerity measures but it still sits on a massive sovereign wealth fund. What does that money buy when you see the US Congress overriding a presidential veto on suing the Saudis over links to 9/11? Finally, it's not just our dependence on Saudi oil... but oil in general. Even in France, one in four cars sold is now a gas-guzzling SUV. Click here for PART ONE.Produced by Daniel Barney, François Wibaux, Yena Lee and Van Meguerditchian.26 min

- The Legacy of Shimon Peres: The last of Israel's founding generation (part 1)Shimon Peres has passed away at 93. He signed the Oslo Accords, was a three-time prime minister and president, and a statesman who was truly the last of his generation. In today’s Debate we retrace Peres' many political lives. Sometimes a hawk, sometimes a dove, his name will forever be associated with the 1993 Oslo Accords, a breaking of the ice with the Palestinians that's yet to result in peace.
