Amanpour: Tony Blinken, Roberto Azevedo, Maya Soetoro, Yo-Yo Ma and Andy Slavitt

America takes another step away from its international commitments as President Trump approves the removal of nearly 12,000 troops from Germany. With U.S. global leadership under the spotlight, Christiane Amanpour speaks to Tony Blinken, senior foreign policy advisor to Joe Biden, about the upcoming U.S. election and America’s international responsibilities. Director General of the World Trade Organization Roberto Azevedo reflects on the "grim" prospects for the world economy post-Covid, his "challenging" relationship with President Trump and his decision to step down from WTO leadership. Cellist Yo-Yo Ma and co-founder of The Peace Studio Maya Soetoro discuss the link between music and peace and explain how sound gives physical comfort in times of trouble. And our Hari Sreenivasan speaks to Andy Slavitt, former acting administrator of the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services, about his new podcast "In the Bubble with Andy Slavitt" and why he thinks that trust is key to turn the tide on America’s battle with Covid-19.
