Smart talk about issues and ideas that matter.
On the Line is a lively forum, hosted by Ayesha Tanzeem, where newsmakers, policy experts, diplomats, activists, academics and journalists discuss world events. It focuses on the critical issues shaping the future, and gives those issues the vigorous, serious debate they deserve. The program broadcasts worldwide three times each week on VOA Television, and is also heard on VOA radio. Condensed versions of the program can be heard in translation in over 40 languages via VOA radio's language services.
"MIDEAST PEACE: TIME FOR A FRESH START?" US Secretary of State John Kerry is trying to rekindle the Middle East peace process that has been largely dormant for several years. China is taking a more active role in resolving the issues between Israel and the Palestinians offering a four point peace proposal to bring peace and stability to the region. On this week's edition of "On the Line", we talk about the efforts to revive the peace process and prospects for peace between Israel and the Palestinians.
