Ahead of DNC, Contrasting Harris and Trump's Foreign Policies

First up, we're diving into next week's Democratic National Convention, where President Biden will endorse Kamala Harris as the next Commander-in-Chief. Rahm Emanuel, Biden's ambassador to Japan, joins Christiane to discuss the successes of Biden’s diplomacy and what a Harris foreign policy might look like. Then, we'll explore what a second Trump term could mean for American diplomacy abroad. Former Pentagon official Elbridge Colby shares why he believes the Trump-Vance agenda could help the U.S. avoid World War Three and why it's imperative to have Europe take the lead in supporting Ukraine. Next, Anna Ardin, the Swedish woman who accused Julian Assange of sexual assault discusses Wikileaks legacy, and recounts her trauma, and how her life has changed since the assault in her new book, ‘No Heroes, No Monsters.' We also hear from Darren Walker, President of the Ford Foundation, as he reflects on his transformative work in philanthropy and how his personal life story has shaped the foundation’s mission to fight inequality. Marking three years since the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan, Christian revisits the severe rollback of women’s rights with a focus on the restrictions faced by women anchors, who are now banned from showing their face on camera. Finally, Christiane speaks with Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado about the recent crackdown by Nicolás Maduro on dissidents following a contested election, as she shares her story from a secret location.
