Episode overview
Anne-Claire Legendre, former Middle East and North Africa advisor to French President Emmanuel Macron and now President of the Institut du Monde Arabe, takes listeners behind the scenes of some of France’s most consequential diplomatic efforts in the Middle East. From the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah to Syria’s post-Assad transition and France’s recognition of Palestinian statehood, she shares her experience from the negotiating table at moments of profound uncertainty.
Legendre reveals how diplomacy depends on perseverance, personal relationships and the search for openings even in deeply divided societies. She reflects on the human encounters that shape her work, and the challenge of finding space for dialogue when conflict appears to leave little room for compromise.
