Exclusive Interview with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky; What’s Next on the War in Iran
3/15/202643 min
Today on the program, Fareed’s exclusive interview with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on his country’s important, albeit unlikely, role in the Iran War: as Iranian-designed drones are fired across the Middle East - the very same drones used by Russia against Ukraine for years - Kyiv has sent military experts to the Gulf to help bring the drones down. Then, how can we expect the war in Iran to unfold from here? Carnegie Senior Fellow Karim Sadjadpour and Lisa Anderson, international affairs professor at Columbia, join Fareed to discuss. Finally, the war has triggered one of the worst oil shocks in decades, as Tehran continues to attack commercial ships and oil infrastructure across the region. Fareed speaks to Jason Bordoff, founding director of the Center on Global Energy Policy, about which countries are most exposed, and which ones are set to benefit.
