Allies brace for the potential of a second Trump term

Fareed Zakaria GPS

Today on the show, Fareed is joined by former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt to discuss how Europe is bracing for a potential Trump-Vance White House. Would NATO survive? Ukraine?

Next, Atlantic staff writer David Frum tells Fareed about the JD Vance that he knew more than a decade ago, and how the Republican vice-presidential candidate has gone from never-Trumper to full-on MAGA.

Then, Iran’s acting foreign minister Ali Bagheri Kani speaks with Fareed about his country’s alleged plot to assassinate former president Donald Trump and the prospects for a renewed nuclear deal.

Next, Audrey Tang, Taiwan’s former minister of digital affairs, discusses her work countering disinformation and cyber-attacks that threaten to undermine democracy in Taiwan.

Finally, Jane Gilbert, Miami-Dade County’s chief heat officer tells Fareed about her work combatting the effects of record high temperatures in one of the epicenters of the climate crisis in the United States.
