‘Caught up in the Policy’

from Boston Calling Hosted by BBC World Service

“People are absolutely losing it. Some they go to their work. Some they pluck them right out of bed from their families." Why Iraqis in the US are getting sent back to Iraq; what it means for one immigrant to get to stay; the fight for paid leave for victims of domestic violence in Canada; a Ukrainian physicist who always tries to keep politics and science separate fails yet again; and the two comedians who started ArmComedy, their country’s first satirical news programme, explain what Armenians find funny.
