Midlle East Specialist - Gilles Kepel
Stephen Sackur speaks to renowned academic Gilles Kepel, an expert on Islamist terrorism. In the wake of Manchester is the West any closer to an effective counter terror strategy?
Stephen Sackur speaks to renowned academic Gilles Kepel, an expert on Islamist terrorism in France and beyond. His work is influential - it was cited by newly elected French president Emmanuel Macron during the recent campaign - and to some, controversial. In the wake of the terrible suicide bombing in Manchester, a familiar question is being asked again - is the West any closer to an effective counter terror strategy?
