An exclusive interview with a Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado

Today on the show, Fareed is joined by a Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado for an exclusive interview to discuss the fallout from her country’s contested election, and why she is still hopeful for Venezuela’s future despite the threats she says she and her allies are facing from Maduro’s regime. Then, the Middle East is on edge as the region braces for a possible retaliation from Iran and Hezbollah following the recent assassinations of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. Staff writer for the New York Times Magazine Ronen Bergman tells Fareed about the mood within Israel, and the increasing desire for a ceasefire among the Israeli defense establishment. Next, Maha Yahya, director at the Carnegie Middle East Center, speaks with Fareed about fears of a wider war in the Middle East. She discusses the view from Lebanon, and the hopes for a deal that she says could deescalate the entire region. Then, the Atlantic’s Derek Thompson joins the show to tell Fareed about the role that gender is likely to play in the US presidential election. He argues it will be a central factor, but not in the way that you might expect. Finally, Charles Duhigg speaks with Fareed about his book “Supercommunicators,” and gives some practical tips for building relationships and having healthier conversations.
