Iran: From Theocracy to Regional Superpower?
Tehran is now engaging in dialogue and has agreed to curb its nuclear program. But it is also involved in wars in Syria and Yemen - running the risk of upsetting the sensibilities of old enemies such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and the US. Donald Trump has now ditched the Iran nuclear deal. The consequences for the Iranian economy, international trade relations and the balance of power in the Middle East remains as yet unclear.
Does Iran have expansionist ambitions - not just military, but also political and economic? Or is it merely seeking to secure its borders and autonomy, and ward off the crises that are destabilizing the Middle East?

Why Is It So Hot? | Inside Story
Hot air from Africa's baking Spain and Portugal in the Iberian peninsula. Record-breaking temperatures have been recorded in eight Portuguese towns - and there's a widespread red alert for wildfires.
In Spain, heatstroke killed at least three men. Heatwave warnings have been issued in 41 of the 50 Spanish provinces where temperatures are expected to soar to 44 degrees.
The scorching temperatures show no sign of falling. So, apart from climate change, what's the cause?

Is There Any Way to Stop Guns Printed in 3D? | Inside Story
That information is already out there on the internet. But if publication had gone ahead it would have immediately become a lot easier to download the plans for the weapons. And with the quality of 3D-printers rapidly rising - and their cost falling equally as fast - that worries a lot of people. Not just gun control activists.
Despite this week's court order, it's a problem that isn't going away. Is public safety more important than freedom of information?
