Episode description
Afghanistan is now in the midst of the world's worst humanitarian crisis. Why? The US froze billions of pounds worth of its assets, and is now moving to steal half of it and give it to 9/11 victims' families. The country is languishing under punitive Western sanctions. The result: Afghanistan faces mass starvation.
We are joined by Afghan lecturer Obaidullah Baheer and Iyad el-Baghdadi to talk through exactly what is happening - and what can be done.
