StChris Posted February 5, 2015 at 09:57 AM Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 at 09:57 AM 关键洞察力_20150128: 反恐 安倍如何抉择? http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XODgxODMwMjU2.html?from=y1.2-1-91.3.1-2.1-1-1-0 This one is mainly about the taking of two Japanese hostages (人质 )by ISIS (伊斯兰国极端组织) (unfortunately things have moved on since the programme was broadcast, and the Jordanian pilot and the other Japanese hostage have both been executed). After giving the usual historical and background info and analysing Abe's performance, the show moves on to other countries' reactions to hostage taking (including one particularly 牛逼 story of how the KGB (克格勃) dealt with a hostage crisis in Lebanon in the 80's. After that it broadens it's scope to cover Japan's diplomatic policy in Middle East in general, and then looks at Japan's relations with it's near neighbours (especally China), and wonders whether or not this might be a more important area for Japan to focus it energy on (当务之急). I ran out of time again this week, so could only create questions for the first half of the programme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
