Geo-World: Conflict & Social Unrest October Update
Summary
Russia expanded its military intervention in Syria during the month, confusing US and NATO allies and promoting peace talks that would include a transition Government with Assad. ISIS lost ground in Iraq, but made some advances in Syria and North Africa. The refugee crisis continued posing risks on Europe and could worsen if Aleppo falls.
