Transcripts For CNNW Fareed 20240706

Welcome to you in the United States and around the worl. Im Fareed Zakaria coming to you live from new york. Today a today on the program, the coronation of charles iii. How different will his reign be from that of his mother . We will explore. Also, the curious case of the alleged attack on the kremlin. Chinas power play in the asiapacific and the the american economy. Ill talk about all of that and hor with an allstar panel. Finally, Bernard Henri levi started filming in ukraine just days after the war began. Ill talk to him about his new documentary Slava Ukraine and how he thinks this tragic war will end. But first, here is my take. We now have a Biden Doctrine. The Biden Administration has set it out in a striking recent address by the National Security adviser jake sullivan. Sullivan outlines the administrations International Economic policy but it is really the Overarching Framework Por president bidens approach to the word defining in lucid terms the idea behind the slogan of Foreign Policy for the middle class. Sullivan is a fiercely intelligence thinker and come to done inate policy in the administration. He showcases hes talents and many of the initiatives are are smart and worth pursuing. But it left me worried among threw broad dimensions. First it is a pessimistic view of americas recent history. Sullivan recalls the florry days of American Economic power after 1945 but then notes that in the last few decades, that strength has waned. He talked about the hollowing out of the countrys Industrial Base and athe export of jobs and the at trophying of businesses. We stopped focusing on bans and investments that are the heart of bidens new approach. Only a couple of weeks before the smi speech, the economists had a cover story on americas astonishing economic record. It begins with 1990. Often used as the narrative of decline and points out that despite the rise of new huge economies like china and india, the u. S. Share of global gdp has stayed the same as 1990. About 25 then and now. A share of the economic input increased from 40 to 58 . Today the vast majority of the world Top Ten Companies are american. In 1989, four were american. Six were japanese. As for building, during these decades, america created and built the information economy. Surely one of the greatest transformations and advances in human history. In 1990, the Great Fear In America was of being overtaken by japan. Then seen as the predatory economic power that was eating our lunch. But as the economist notes in the same edition, in 1990, americas income per person was 17 higher than japan. Today it is a staggering 54 higher. Look at demographics or energy or leading technology companies. And everywhere you see america in a dominant position. Perhaps we got something right. The other worry i have is off the efficacy of large scale Government Intervention in the economy. Sullivan outlines the need for federal subsidies in key areas either to maintain the technological lead or for National Security reasons. Brilliant people like sullivan may think they are well positioned to identify the key Strategic Industries that need support. But historically these kind of interventions have not gone so well. Companies focus on lobbying the government rather than responding to the market. Subsidies once in place become eternal. And innovation slows down. In the 1980s and 90s, japan Techno Crates pushed the country into the lead. In the word of a Harvard Review essay, the Strategic Investments in Artificial Intelligence and trains and Micro Machines and hdtv all proved to be multimillion dollars debacles. Finally sullivan insisted these policies wither not designed to be America First or alone. But the facts are clear. Almost every element of joe bidens Economic Policy has a buy america component to it. Its green subsidies are building new plants in america. This sounds great but thought to the europeans who must now offer their own bribes to invest at home instead. It conjures up a vision of the world that is quite far removed from reality. The iphone is made with products from dozens of countries across six continents. Though the vast majority of the profits accrue in the United States. And as the u. S. Preaches the need for a rulesbased international order, it is worth noting that it is violating the core of that order. Every one of these policies is in violation of the letter or spirit of the with wto and its framework of open trade. This hypocrisy is rarely discussed in the u. S. But frequently and angrily pointed out abroad. The greatest challenge for americans over the last few decades has been that middle class wages have not kept up with rising costs of living. That problem will surely get exacerbated by raising costs of goods throughout the economy through tariffs and Industrial Policy. As larry somers points out, protecting the American Steel industry sounds smart but when you do it by raising the price of steel, the 6 million workers who use steel as an input in their goods all suffer. A Foreign Policy that produces persistent, systemic inflation will fail to deliver for the middle class who are, as joe biden often said, its intended beneficiaries. Go to cnn. Com fareed for a link to my Washington Post column this week. And lets get started. The freshly crowned king being kissed on the cheek by the next in line for the throne. That seems like a perfect clip for the future of the British Monarchy and i asked joanna koels to come in and talk to me about that. Shes a journalist and author and you have too many titles. Ard mar eclair and cosmo. How do you this is the longest gap between coronations. It is been 70 years and it is extraordinary to think how the world has changed. When princess elizabeth was crowned in 1952, britain was still a huge dominant global power. And she actually was officially, when she became queen, the Head Of State of 32 different countries. The empires obviously slimmed down countries, seceding faster than you could say their names. And she was in kenya when she learned that her father george vi died and she would become queen and then kenya ten years later declared independent. So britains own role in the world is very different. The coronation at the time, they had 7,000 people in the cathedral, or the abbey, westminster abbey, and they people, you know, who, within the class system in britain, felt utterly entitled to attend and what you saw in king charles is a very different britain. Much more inclusive, a lot of Health Workers turning up after the covid crisis instead of sort of, you know, bearons and others. Hes trying to slim down monarchy and modernize it. If you look at statistics on what part of britain supports the monarchy, what is striking, i think we have a chart there. As you get older, your support grows. Young people, it is at 32 . Old people it is at 78 . Will he succeed in making the monarchy relevant . Well he said he wants to slim it down. What did we see yesterday . An enormous global event. What has happened to britain, not only has it lost its empire and but it has the decision to leave europe. So it is the Little Island on the edge of europe and what it could do is this sort of brilliant creative eventmaking process. You know, you think of morgan and the crown, some of the top shows on the netflix, british written, british directors and actors, you saw Emma Thompson at the coronation yesterday. And they say theyre clislimmint down but theyre promoting brand britain. It is the luxury brand. It is the Creative Industry that britain is really good at and this is the shop window to see them. Charles, as prince of wales, was very outspoken as many much as a royal can be about environment and architecture and sustainable farming. He had views on islam. I thought he was right about what he mostly talked about but you cant do that as king, can you . Well well find out. What is interesting, he was often ahead of his time. A big convener of Climate Change and thinkers. I think youll see a think tank monarchy. Tina brown who has written about the royal family talking about his being a transitional mark and you think about william, what must he be thinking in that moving moment that you shows where he bends to kiss him. But i think charles will be a think tank monarchy. He was told by liz truss who lasted less than a head of lettuce that he couldnt go to court. But what he did do was convene his own Version Of Corp at the weekend which everybody said was much more interesting and thoughtful. So i think he will be able to do this in a thoughtful and entertaining way which keeps the keeps the monarchy relevant but doesnt make it too provocative. We have a minute left, harry. Any thoughts on that. I felt sad for him coming in like that and i wonder what he thought as he came in and slipped away in a black car. An an and he wanted to be back for his sons birthday but what could be more important your father being crowned king. So i hope they resolve it. I was glad he came. I t i think i felt people were happy that he came. And every parent sees that and has an inkling of what is going on. But im glad he came. Always a pleasure. Next, massive shootings and bitterly divided washington. How is the u. S. Perceived by the the west of the world . Well be back in a moment with a global panel.

Zanny Minton Beddoes joins us from london and Michael Fullilove is on set with me today in new york. Hes the Executive Director of the institute, an internet think tank based in sydney, australia. 14 time zones away, what does Joe Bidens America look like to you . Look, i think he deserves more credit than he gets. I think hes shaping up as a Foreign Policy president of the first rank. If you think he responded to the russian invasion of ukraine with a matter class in state craft and alliance management, russia looks much weaker now. Nato is larger and stronger. In asia, i would say that he has managed the relationship with china as well as could be imagined. You see u. S. Allies moving toward the United States. You also see around the world connections between democracies quickening, you see democracies reaching out towards each other. And this comes off the back of the trauma of the trump years. So i would say from an ally perspective, biden looks good. Zanny, you did that cover story that i mentioned in my opening take. Do you feel like that sense of americas economic strength is felt around the world and in europe in particular . I think it is. The sense of the strength is felt. But so too is what you brought our in your commentary which is a sense that america has now kind of changed the rules and that the upholder of the rulesbased order is now going along on its own Industrial Policy that is not rulebased. And im listen to the upbeat asesment. I share what he said and after the debacle about afghanistan, there is an enormous success in building alliance. But there are two areas with the Biden Administration and the first is what you spoke about at the beginning of the show. The Industrial Policy that is America First Industrial Policy. It is not focused primarily on the rest of the world. Although increasingly there is an aemt it to bring in alliances, this is a america not open for Market Open Trade deals and that is not lost on the the rest of the world. And one other big thing that i think the u. S. Is falling short on is bringing what people like to bring the global south but bringing the rest of the world with it. It has clearly the Biden Administration has continued a tough on policy, in many ways tougher than president trump. And it has united the Transatlantic Alliance over ukraine. But a lot of the rest does not support ukraine and is very skeptical of what the u. S. Is doing. So be sustainable in the medium and longterm, those two things have to be addressed. What do you think about that . Particularly this issue of the global south. If you saw a article by ashley talis, one of the smartest strategic analysts on asia and he said india is clearly going its own way. It is not becoming a dutiful american ally. It will not side with america in the kind of the the race with regard to china. It needs china for trade just as much as it needs america for some security assurances. Well, there is no question that chinas economy is so large it exerts a tremendous magnetic effect in every country in our region. There is no doubt that india has its own concerns and will chart its own course. But i would say to you that notwithstanding that, everybody inash wants their own place in the sun. No one wants to live in the shadow of china. So most countries want a leading role for the United States. And yes, they have some concerns about american policy from time to time. But i think in general, they see steadiness from the administration, they see the resilience of america and his economy. So that is why i feel positive actually. Zanny, what will all of this look like if there is a kind of serious game of chicken played with the debt crisis. Well, it is a game of chicken that ends badly, it could be catastrophic. But i lived in washington for almost two deckiades and ive b there this several games with chicken and each time something is resolved at the last minute. This is an utterly crazy way to run philosophy. This imposed deadline that causes this fake sense of a debt crisis in a default. But not witwithstanding that, t u. S. Has a problem. We have a piece in this weeks issue that shows for the last half century u. S. Budgets arthed about 3. 5. of gdp. What the likely cost of this any Industrial Policy going to be if you add on the probability there will be a recession at some po point, youre looking at 7 of gdp. So there has to be some kind of agreement to cut spending and also to raise revenue. But both sides have put oven titlement. No one will touch that. No one will do broad based tax increases. So this very weird situation where you have a Pantomime Display of brinkmanship right now that could end in disaster. I think it gets sorted out. But who knows. Janet yellen said default could come june 1st, the end of the ability to do extraordinary measures. Even if they get through that, there is a fiscal problem that at some point needs to be dealt with. I think youre right about the longterm the longterm problem is that for a while it has been clear that americans are very comfortable with the level of spending that the democrats propose and the level of taxes that republicans propose. That leaves a very large gap which we make up by borrowing. Well talk about everything. There are only six countries that have Nuclear Powered submarines and there will soon be a 7th, australia. The sub are meant to send a ma major message to china. Will they hear it and what will the consequences be, when we come back. Okay everyone, our mission is complete balanced nutrition. Together we provide nutrients to support immune, muscle, bone, and heart health. Yaaay woo hoo ensure with 25 vitamins and minerals and ensure complete with 30 grams of protein. wheezing asthma isnt pretty. Its the moment when you realize that a good day. Is about to become a bad one. But then, i remembered that the world is so much bigger than that, with trelegy. Because one dose a day helps keep my Asthma Symptoms under control. And with 3 medicines in 1 inhaler, trelegy helps improve Lung Function so i can breathe easier for a full 24 hours. Trelegy wont replace a Rescue Inhaler for sudden breathing problems. Trelegy contains a medicine that increases risk of hospitalizations and death from asthma problems when used alone. When this medicine is used with an inhaled corticosteroid, like in trelegy, there is not a significant increased risk of these events. Do not take trelegy more than prescribed. Trelegy may increase risk of thrush and infections. Get Emergency Care for serious allergic reactions. See your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. What a wonderful world. Ask your doctor about oncedaily trelegy for asthma because breathing should be beautiful. What will you do . Will you make Something Better . Create something new . Our Dell Technologies advisors can provide you with the tools and expertise you need to bring out the innovator in you. And this is ready to go online. Any questions . Yeah, i got one. How about the best Network Imaginable . Lets invent that. Thats what we do here. Quick survey. Who wants the internet to work, pretty much everywhere. And it needs to smooth, like super, super, super, super smooth. Hey, should you be drinking that . Its decaf. Because were busy women. We dont have time for lag or buffering. Who doesnt want internet that helps a. I. Do your homework even faster. Come again. Sorry, what was that . Introducing the next generation 10g network only from xfinity. The future starts now. And we are back here on gps with zanny Minton Beddoes and Michael Fullilove. Michael, so you have these new Nuclear Powered subs, the chinese im sure are not happy. But australia and china have gone through some pretty rough times. The chinese had the 14 demands and then they blocked trade with pretty wild. With australia. Where do things stand now . Australia relationship has changed with china because china has changed. China has become much harder edged and they didnt like australian policy and they aemt itted a campaign of economic coercion against australia. It petered out because of the high price of oil. There is a change of government. In australia. In australia. Certainly not in china. So what you have now is from australia, a dual track policy, on the diplomacy side, ending the sielt treatment and talked between leaders and Foreign Ministers and also investing in new capabilities including the Nuclear Powered submarines that will give us more detarrant punch. And trade is back to normal . Trade continues at the macro level because of the high price of iron ore. There are still trade blockages on individual sectors and firms. But in general trade didnt slow down much to the consternation of the chinese. How does this look in europe . Because i keep hearing from european statesman and businessmen, that europe has to do business with china they will not be able to join in an american blockade. But yet the u. S. Is pushing pretty hard. Where does all of this end for europe . So i think there is a lot of questioning going on in europe and a Soul Searching about where exactly the europeans should be. And you will remember the very, very angry reaction in europe to those comments of president Emmanuel Macron when he came back saying taiwan was not a european issue. And i think theyre trying to work this out. And in the last few weeks, ive noticed a change of a rhetoric from washington which i think is designed to make it easier to the europeans. In that speech from jake sullivan, the National Security adviser that you described at the beginning of the show where he laid out the Biden Doctrine if you will, he mentioned that the focus was not decoupling, but the Europe Commission president said it was derisking. And when i was in washington, everyone is very keen to tell me this is about derisking and the u. S. Did not want decoupling and janet yellen said the same thing. All of the elements the u. S. Strategy, they like to use this analogy, that the u. S. Needs a small yard with a high wall. And that is been widely in interpreted to push china and keep china back in foundational technologies. And in europe, there is a lot of concern about that. Because on the wone hand there s growing worry about china, but as you say, particularly in countries like germany, there is an incredible economic relationship with china. Like the asf and the german Car Companies essentially wouldnt be at all where they were without china. Zanny, briefly tell me what was what was your sense of what is happening in china . Because you were in china for the annual development forum. How do the chinese perceive what is going on . There is real anger. I was shocked, fareed. I went back as you say a few weeks ago. I hadnt been there since 2019. Four years. A real hardening and the sense that the United States is a Bullying Power determined to keep china down. They want us one scholar said to be a fat cat, no the tiger that the chinese consider themselves to want to be. And i came back really very gloomy having been both in washington and in beijing, that both sides see the other as, you know, a Mortal Threat in some ways and that is a dangerous position to be in. Subs subsequently, there has been attempt, but this is a relationship in terrible, terrible shape. Michael, i have to ask you, before we go, you are australian, which means that king charles is technically your Head Of State. Mmhmm. What is that issue looking like in australia . There had been a push for republicanism and taking the british monarch off the european currency. Where do things stand and what do you think . Do you think charles will be the last royal Head Of State of australia . Well let me say, look, i thought the images from london were incredible. They showed us again that no one does ceremony like the brits. I like charles. I like his sense of humor. I think he was ahead of his time on the environment. But im an australian and i think that australias Head Of State should be an australian and i think most americans could be sympathetic to that. So i wish charles well, long live the king. But if the longterm i think our Head Of State should be one of us. And that is what what is the politics look like and the polls look like in australia . Do most australians share your views . If you express it that way, yes. But if you get into the model and how we change the government, it becomes complicated. But i think when we look ahead, we have to be confident enough to have affection and fondness for britain and for the monarchy. But ultimately know that our future depends on ourselves and that means all in the position should be held by australians. Always a pleasure to have you guys on. We will try to reconvene this global panel soon. Next on gps, Bernard Henri levy has been in the front line areas of ukraine. Based on those trips he has strongly held beliefs on how this war will end. Back with him to explain all of that in a moment. I got the desert airir, sunkissed pools, and shady hideaways.

We dont often equate philosophers with bravery, but Bernard Henri levy breaks the mold. Hes traveled to many of the front line lokes weve heard about tht news. Places like kherson, odesa and bakhmut. He went to bear witness and brought a film crew to document what he saw. The result is an impressive new documentary called Slava Ukraine, meaning glory to ukraine. It is out now in select theaters benard henri levy, thank you. Thank you. I want to ask you about the issue of bravery. It is struck me as sometimes underrated when you think about we think about smarts and intelligence and but if you think of great leadership, like with zelenskyy, bravery, courage is one of the most important things. Do you think that is trained . Do you think it is inborn . It is one of the most important and one of the most forgotten. We were so surprised when zelenskyy decided to stay. We were so surprised when the whole ukrainian people stood at his side. It was absolutely unexpected. None of us thought that. But they have thel but nevertheless, it happened. We have brave citizenship like In The Beginning of america, like in athens in the ancient greece, like in the french revolution. This is what happened many ukraine. And this is one of the great events which we saw. When you went on the front lines and you talked to these soldiers, theyre up against are very formidable foe and the russias are hammering and theyre doing things that are are really we havent seen since world war ii, destroying whole cities, bombing the Sewage Plants and the water facilities an the hospitals. Are they losing their nerve . Are they losing their courage . I never saw that. Maybe it happens. But i never saw that. I was in a lot of hot places and what i saw is quiet bravery. Not stupid bravery, which is a fake one, going to the enemy. But the master of bravery everywhere. Protecting the weak, putting all of the people under shelter, going to fetch them under fire. This i saw many times and this is what i report in the commentary in many scenes. You know that people look at the strategic situation from afar and they say, look, the ukrainians will do will make some gains in these in this coming counter offensive, but at the end of the day, the russians are have dug in, in crimea and the donbas they took in 2014. So there will have to be some negotiation, there will have to be in settlement. What do you see . I dont believe that. Number one, if there is a compromise, it would be a disaster for all of us. When you do compromise with someone who decided that we are his enemy, and that he declared total war against the whole civilized world, it is a very bad thing. A compromise with putin is for all of us a bad thing, number one. Number two, i dont think it would be necessary. What i observed on the ground during these six months of shooting, each time the ukrainians decided with their wise bravery to launch an offensive, they won. And sometimes, very often, the russians did not even try to resist in kherson, for example. So when they will decide that they are strong enough, equipped enough to go to donetsk, to go to crimea, they will. And you will be surprised how little the russians will resist. Number three, the only thing that is missing and which we have to do is to give the equipment and to give it strongly, quickly, and not in the incremental way which is the moto and doctrine from us. If we give what they need, things could go quick and the war can stop and we could spare some human lives. You are a big supporter of Emmanuel Macron in france. On this issue, do you think macron is searching for a compromise, a solution . He still talks to putin. Do you think he agreed with what youre saying . I think so. I i think that macron never searched for a compromise with putin. He spoke with him at the beginning, not to such a compromise, to appeal to what he believed could remain in his mad brain, of putin. He tried to explain that he was making a necessary mistake but not to make a compromise. There is one poin on which macron never changed. Putin and russia has to be defeated. Ukraine has to get the victory. And the victory means what they will say, they always said that and i had the privilege, by the way, to be asked by macron to be there in his last mantoman meeting with zelenskyy in paris. They had a meeting two or three months ago. I was if the room with andre and president macron and i heard and i saw the position of macron was very clear. The victory has to be yours, president zelenskyy. And what victory means is for you to decide, not us. Not diplomats, thought americans, france, not europe. It is your country and it is your combat and it is your position and this is the position of france. Bernard henri levy, always a pleasure talking to you. Thank you, fareed. So go to Movie Theaters and watch the movie Slava Ukraine. Next may say not much changed, he woke up as king charles and went to sleep as king charles but he represents a monarchy that has changed enormously over the past century.

King charles iii has had to plan his coronation with careful diplomacy, navigating what to do with his son, harry, and his brother andrew. But that is nothing compared to one of his predecessors, george iv, who insisted that his own wife be denied entry to his coronation in 1821. Amongst his wife, Caroline Of Brunswick offenses with were eating raw onions, flirting and swearing like a sailor. King george pressed an Adultery Case against her, hoping their marriage would be dissolved by the time he became king. Caroline was loved by the choppers who were growing Discon Tenned to the British Monarchy and added was an unlikable king and a press that took carolines side. She was britains first Tabloid Princess or queen actually. But she doesnt enjoy it for long. Show died of an illness a few weeks george iv was crowned. So coronations have been much crazier and messier in the aft than these days. In fact it was tamed and transformed by a coronation. That of Queen Elizabeth in 1953.
