We head to the Caucasus region to explore the tense relationship between Turkey and Armenia, stemming from the Armenian genocide in 1915 but also involving other factors such as border disputes. We also discuss the 2018 Armenian Revolution and President Erdoğan of Turkey's increasingly authoritarian turn. We interview William Hale, emeritus professor with special reference to Turkey at SOAS, and ask Thomas de Waal, senior fellow at Carnegie Europe specialising in the Caucasus region, about Armenia's political future and relationships with its neighbours.
