This week Unbound is pleased to welcome out first guest: Kaveh Shahrooz. Kaveh, Geoff, and James discuss the recent events in Syria relating to Biden's strikes on Iranian proxy forces, how Canadian governments approach foreign policies, and how we should adjust that approach given the current global climate.

He is also a former Senior Policy Advisor on human rights to Global Affairs Canada.
