This is the Global News podcast from the BBC World Service.
I'm Andrew Peach and in the early hours of Monday 9th December, these are our main stories.
Russian state news agencies have announced
that Syria's deposed president Bashar Al Assad is in Moscow and has been granted political asylum.
The victorious Islamist rebel leader in Syria told supporters at a historic mosque in Damascus
that all Syrians could now breathe freely.
In other news,
Donald Trump has threatened to take the United States out of NATO
if the other allies don't pay their bills and treat America fairly.
Also in this podcast, I'm very hopeful.
