  Leaders on Ukraine and Russia, Serbia’s President on Political Flux, Bill Gates on AI Risks

  Sep 27, 202643 min

  Today on a special UNGA edition of the show, Fareed speaks with the leaders of two nations that have been ardent supporters of Ukraine since the war: Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, of Norway, and President Alexander Stubb, of Finland, about the prospects for peace. Then, Fareed sits down with France’s Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot to discuss France’s leadership in pushing for a more integrated and independent Europe, and the surge in French right-wing populism. Later, Remember the "Butcher of Bosnia"? AKA Ratko Mladić, the Bosnian-Serb commander convicted of war crimes for his role in the Balkans war of the 1990s? He received a hero's funeral in Serbia with military honors after his death last month. This comes amid a worrying surge in Serbian nationalism. Fareed asks the Serbian president Aleksandar Vučić about it. Finally, Bill Gates joins Fareed to discuss how to mitigate the risks posed by AI and whether there are certain jobs that should always remain in the hands of human beings. Guests: Jonas Gahr Støre (@jonasgahrstore), Alexander Stubb (@alexstubb), Jean-Noël Barrot (@jnbarrot), Aleksandar Vučić (@avucic), Bill Gates (@BillGates) Learn more about your ad choices.

  The Post-9/11 Wars, Trends of ’26, State of Democracy

  Sep 6, 202643 min

  Today on the show, twenty-five years after 9/11, America is still living with the consequences of the war on terror. It produced major tactical successes, at enormous human and financial cost. Fareed speaks with CNN national security analyst Peter Bergen, author of "All the Presidents’ Wars," about the legacy of America’s war on terror. Then, Fareed talks to Derek Thompson, host of the podcast “Plain English” and author on Substack, about his deep dive into the “megatrends” that he sees defining the news cycle in 2026 including AI’s impact on jobs and media, social isolation, and global violence. Finally, there are many signs that liberal democracy itself may be in retreat — from the rise of authoritarianism around the globe to deepening political polarization and declining public trust. At the Aspen Ideas Festival, Fareed sits down for a wide-ranging conversation on the topic with three terrific guests: political scientist Francis Fukuyama, former Deputy Prime Minister of Canada Chrystia Freeland and New York Times columnist David French. GUESTS: Peter Bergen (@peterbergencnn), Derek Thompson (@DKThomp), Francis Fukuyama (@FukuyamaFrancis) Chrystia Freeland (@cafreeland), David French (@DavidAFrench) Learn more about your ad choices.
