About this episode
One month into America and Israel’s war on Iran, the global economic fallout is deepening with civilians killed, displaced, and caught in the crossfire. Christiane speaks with U.N. relief chief Tom Fletcher about the human toll of the conflict and what help is reaching those most in need. Then, transatlantic fractures emerge as Europe pushes back against President Trump’s war. What are the consequences for the alliance? Christiane asks Norway’s Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide. And Asia bearing the brunt, as the energy crisis hits poorer countries hardest. Christiane speaks with Philippine Foreign Secretary Ma. Theresa P. Lazaro about declaring an energy emergency and how the country is managing soaring prices and dwindling supply. Plus, is this the moment to accelerate the shift to renewable energy? Renowned environmentalist Bill McKibben makes his case. And from the archives, how Iran’s Islamic Revolution used education as a tool of indoctrination from the very start.
