Hearings have begun in the first case of its kind at the International Court of Justice. West African country The Gambia has brought a case against Myanmar for alleged acts of genocide against the Rohingya people. When legal proceedings were launched in 2019, it was the first time an alleged genocide had been submitted to the ICJ by a country not directly affected by the genocide. The verdict of this unprecedented case could influence future cases, like the pending trial against Israel, brought by South Africa, for alleged acts of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Today, we’re going to explain everything you know about the ICJ case against Myanmar.

Hosts: Emily Donohoe and Billi FitzSimons
Producer: Orla Maher

This week, President Donald Trump renewed calls for America to take control of the Arctic territory of Greenland. On Wednesday, Denmark's foreign minister held talks in Washington with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, but the meeting failed to resolve what Denmark described as a "fundamental disagreement." 

Now, NATO allies including Sweden, Norway and Germany have begun deploying military personnel to Greenland in a show of support for Denmark. On today’s podcast, we're breaking down what's happened this week, why Trump actually wants Greenland, and what the international response tells us about tensions within NATO.

Hosts: Sam Koslowski and Emma Gillespie
