This week on The New Arab Voice podcast, we look at the potential for a normalisation deal between Syria and Turkey. 

In recent years, Syria has been welcomed back into the regional fold, and yet Damascus has still not normalised with Ankara, and Turkish troops remain on Syrian soil. 

We look at the possibility of Turkish forces leaving Syria, what it means for the Syrian opposition supported by Turkey, what it means for Kurdish areas in Syria's north east, and what a possible deal for the millions of refugees living in Turkey. 

Joining us, we have Joseph Daher (@JosephDaher19), a professor at Lausanne University, Switzerland, and the author of Hezbollah: The Political Economy of the Party of God. Also, Pinar Dost (@pdosting) nonresident fellow and the former deputy director of the Atlantic Council’s Turkey Program, and author of The Good Dictator – The Image of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in France (1919-1938).

This podcast is written and produced by Hugo Goodridge (@hugogoodridge). 

Theme music by Omar al-Fil.
