On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN:
Fareed's exclusive interview with French President Emmanuel Macron on the resurgence of populism, on his relationship with President Donald Trump — Does he think a clash between himself and Trump is inevitable? And what does he think of Trump's cancellation of Saturday's planned trip to an American World War I cemetery in France?
Watch Macron on what he and Trump share – and where they disagree.
Fareed and Macron also discuss the dangerous trends that could jeopardize a fragile peace upon the centenary of the First World War—and the steps the French President is taking to build international cooperation and keep totalitarianism at bay in a world in which the United States is no longer a predictable player.
Also, Fareed gives his Take on the legacy of World War I, and why we may still be suffering under the "Great Illusion" that progress is inevitable.
"If you compare the world today, it feels less like the 1930s than the 1920s. Economic growth and technological progress were accelerating then, as now. We are also seeing a surge in nationalism and the breakdown of cooperation, which were the hallmarks of the 1920s. New great powers were ascending, as they are now," Fareed says. "Things are not simply going to work themselves out while we watch. History is not a Hollywood movie."
