Rising tensions in the Middle East

Rising tensions in the Middle East

Today on the show, Fareed is joined by the New Yorker’s Robin Wright and Johns Hopkins professor Vali Nasr to break down the latest escalations in the Middle East following the killings of three Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. Will tensions between Israel and Iran lead to a full-scale regional war? Can the US do anything to de-escalate the situation? Then, last week saw the largest prisoner swap between Russia and the West since the Cold War. Bill Browder, formerly the largest foreign investor in Russia, speaks with Fareed about the negotiations that freed US journalist Evan Gershkovich and 23 other prisoners. Finally, co-founder of the Venezuelan opposition party Voluntad Popular Leopoldo López joins Fareed to discuss the fallout from his country’s presidential elections, and why the US and counties around the world are calling the results into question.
