Human Rights Watch urged the EU to review its sanctions on Syria, arguing they hinder humanitarian efforts and worsen economic hardship for Syrians.

Today Radio Schuman talks all things Syria with Adam Coogle, Deputy Director of the Middle East and North Africa Division at Human Rights Watch. What should the EU's approach be to the new regime in Syria? Should the EU lift sanctions in the country and start a dialogue with the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) group, which is defined as a terrorist organisation by the EU?

Radio Schuman also examines the next steps in the European Commission's investigation into TikTok, and a European Court of Auditors report on the Commission's performance in enforcing EU law.

We also look at how Europe is performing on the gender pay gap in the workplace.

Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Maïa de la Baume, with journalist and production assistant Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by  David Brodheim and Georgios Leivaditis. Music by Alexandre Jas.
