CIA Election Speculation, Iranian Nuclear Navy, New Dalai Lama Dispute

The first topic that we address this week are the results of the Macedonian elections and how they might herald the coming of yet another political crisis in the Balkan nation.

After that we look at the post-election crisis in The Gambia after outgoing President Yahya Jammeh changed his mind and refused to step down. Once that’s done, we move along to discussing the dispute between Mongolia and China over the Dalai Lama and how India is poised to take advantage of this. Drawing near the end, we shift to speaking about Iran’s announcement that it will move ahead with the construction of nuclear engines for its navy. Finally, our main story of the week is how the CIA released a speculative and unsubstantiated report alleging that Russia interfered with the American elections, scandalously releasing it right before the electors officially vote for president.
