Episode 32

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.

The UAE becomes the 3rd Arab nation to normalize relations with Israel, Lebanon teeters on the brink, Hong Kong's crisis deepens, and protestors contest Belarus' election results - Fareed talks to former top State Department officials Richard Haass and Anne-Marie Slaughter about all that and Joe Biden's pick of Kamala Harris as his running mate. Then, as the U.S. struggles to get students back to class, what can it learn from Denmark - the first European country to reopen schools (way back on April 15th)? Danish Education Minister Pernille Rosenkrantz-Theil offers lessons. And Russia claims another Sputnik-like victory, but the world isn't convinced. So, the question is: who WILL win the race for a Covid-19 vaccine? Fareed looks at the front-runners. Bruce Feiler, the author of Life Is in the Transitions, discusses how to navigate pandemics and other "Lifequakes."
