This week’s agenda with Marcus Mabry and Adam Mynott

The World

Marcus Mabry, international business editor for The New York Times, and Adam Mynott, from the BBC, join us to take a look at the consequences of Abdullah Abdullah pulling out of the just-cancelled run-off elections in Afghanistan. Also on the agenda: the upcoming 30th anniversary of the Iran hostage crisis, and October’s employment numbers, due out later this week from the Labor Department.
