The Twin Threats to Indonesia's Fragile Democracy


Listen Later

In this week’s Trend Lines podcast, WPR’s editor-in-chief, Judah Grunstein, senior editor, Frederick Deknatel, and associate editor, Omar H. Rahman, discuss the Trump administration’s move to decertify the Iran nuclear deal and what it means for U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East.

For the Report, Emirza Adi Syailendra talks with Peter Dörrie about the two major threats facing Indonesia’s democracy and explains why 19 years after the fall of Suharto, Indonesia’s democracy remains tenuous and its institutions weak.
