From the transcript
Welcome back to the briefing room, the weekly conflict runs down where we ask the age-old question, what will we be talking about if the Iran war wasn't happening?
This week we're going to visit the nation of India, where after more than half a century of continuous conflict, the ideological descendants of Chinese, Chairman Mao Zedong have finally been vanquished.
From there we'll travel to Nepal to cover what's quickly becoming, a political takedown for the ages, and finally we'll turn to Haiti, where the news, as usual, is also very bad.
