On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN:
First, Fareed gives his take on President Trump's pressure campaign against Iran—an economic assault that has led to a "humanitarian crisis in Iran and a geopolitical crisis in the Middle East, with no strategy to resolve either."
"The path to stability in the Middle East does not lie in strangling Iran," Fareed says. "That will only sow the seeds of resentment and revanchism, creating a more unstable region and one in which the United States will find itself mired for decades. Alas, this is the path on which we find ourselves moving."
Next, Fareed discusses US-Iran tensions in further detail with former US energy secretary Ernest Moniz, a top negotiator of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal; he'll share his thoughts on whether US pressure can produce a different agreement.
We'll then hear from former UK foreign secretary David Miliband, who will offer his take on the resignation of Britain's ambassador to the US, what it says about Trump, and what it reveals about the UK's global standing.
The New York Times' Thomas Friedman will argue that when Israelis vote this fall, Israel's future as a Jewish democracy will be on the line—the topic of his most recent column; our What in the World segment will explore the case for a "World Carbon Bank" to help emerging economies develop with clean energy; and two lawyers, Menaka Guruswamy and Arundhati Katju, will share the story of how they overturned India's colonial-era law banning gay sex in 2018. | |
