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.
Fareed sits down with retired US Army Gen. Wesley Clark, a former NATO Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, to discuss Ukraine's recent successes in the war and whether Putin might respond with nuclear weapons. And, as protests for revolution in Iran continue, Fareed speaks to Iranian-American writer Roya Hakakian about how she says it feels like Iran's 1979 revolution all over again and could have the same effect – the toppling of a government. Then, after OPEC+ announced it was slashing oil production, Fareed talks to Amrita Sen, founder and director of research at Energy Aspects, about the decision – one that was a present to Putin and a rebuff to Biden. Plus, when Fareed was in Ukraine he sat down with Andriy Yermak, the head of Ukraine's presidential office and Zelensky's right hand man, to ask what it's like to govern a country at war.
