Fareed Zakaria GPS S2021E17 - May 2, 2021

Journalist and author Fareed Zakaria hosts this in-depth look at the major global developments of the week (the title's "GPS" stands for "Global Public Square"), with an emphasis on new ideas and innovative solutions to the world's toughest problems. Each episode also features Zakaria leading a panel discussion and interviewing a major world figure.

Ten years after the death of Osama bin Laden, Fareed examines how political and militant Islam may have lost its allure. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton grades Biden's first 100 days in office, outlines the most effective way to proceed with politics in DC, examines the complex relationship between the U.S. and Russia, and discusses the possible outcomes after the American withdrawal from Afghanistan. Then, with India ever deeper in crisis, John Hopkins professor Yascha Mounk and Institute for Global Change research fellow Brett Meyer debate whether populist politics affects pandemic response. Plus, Saudi Crown Prince MBS's stunning admission regarding his nation's relations with Iran.
