While leaders of the Middle East are caught between solving new and old economic and political problems, and while the peoples of the region are losing hope due to a lack of direction or solutions, one country is quietly forging ahead with plans to become a regional superpower. Ahmet Davutoglu believes that Turkey has the makings of a regional superpower and that its deep historical and geographical connections with Arabs, Kurds, Persians, Central Asians and Caucasians are an advantage.

Thirty years after becoming a nation, and 30 years after Robert Mugabe and ZANU PF came to power, Zimbabwe does not appear to have fulfilled the hopes that so many had at independence. Both ZANU PF and the MDC appear to be in a state of denial about the true condition of Zimbabwe at 30, and this cannot be the best way for the country to start its fourth decade as a nation.

In June 2010, the eyes of the world were on South Africa as it hosted the FIFA World Cup. For ordinary South Africans, it was also a month-long reprieve from the usual bad news about crime, corruption, and poverty that has plagued the nation in recent years. But it is only now, months after the World Cup has been over, that South Africa can finally assess how it moves forward and how it overcomes the huge number of challenges it faces. The Rageh Omaar...

Unwanted, marginalised, defiant - the Roma people have become the target of governments across Europe. In France and Italy they have been thrown out in their thousands - accused of illegally overstaying their welcome and blamed for increases in crime. They say that in their countries of origin they are victims of discrimination - a minority with few opportunities. They are now taking advantage of European Union laws that allow freedom of travel to all European citizens - looking West to find a better life, yet reluctant to adapt to Western ways. The Roma issue has now been forced on EU policy makers - they have to find a balance between the growing hostility and the rights of the Roma. The Rageh Omaar...

There is a spectre haunting europe - the spectre of austerity. Across the continent this summer people have been protesting against cuts in their salaries and rising unemployment. Nowhere has this anger been expressed more deeply or more freely than in the birth-place of Western democracy - Greece. Strikes and demonstrations are not unusual in Greece - almost every week there is industrial action by one sector or another. But the country has not seen anything on this scale since the toppling of the dictatorship 35 years ago. Athens' regular demonstrations have taken on a ritualised nature - part theatre, part comedy. The workers march and make their voices heard in front of the national parliament. There is a face-off. If rocks are thrown by the protestors, tear-gas is used by the police and then everyone goes home. But not on May 5. As Greece's MPs debated how deep to cut, workers stormed the parliament. Buildings were set on fire and three people were burned to death. The Rageh Omaar Report investigates a Greek tragedy. The Rageh Omaar...
