Putin is Running Down the Clock for a Peace Deal
from Fareed Zakaria GPS · host CNN Podcasts
Today on the show, Russian President Vladimir Putin has just 37 days to meet Trump's deadline for a peace deal - but Moscow seems unphased as Russian forces continues to pummel Ukraine. Fareed talks to Alina Polyakova, the president of the Center for European Policy Analysis about prospects for peace. Then, a violent power struggle is emerging in post-Assad Syria. Robert Worth, a contributing writer at The Atlantic, joins the show to discuss Israel’s recent strike on Syria’s defense ministry, and the growing rift between the US and Israel over Syria. Next, this week the White House announced its plan to make America the world leader in artificial intelligence - largely by scaling back regulations. Fareed sits down with Microsoft cofounder and philanthropist Bill Gates to talk about how he sees the present and future of AI. Finally, economist David Autor warns a second ‘China shock’ is on the horizon -- and says it may be worse than the first.
