Retired US Army Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling assesses Ukraine's counteroffensive strategy against Russia. David Rennie, The Economist's Bejing Bureau Chief, discusses China's slow growing economy and whether it poses any risk to Xi Jinping. Then, will Iran accept a revived nuclear deal? Dina Esfandiary of the International Crisis Group and Karim Sadjadpour of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace offer their opinions. Plus, as some Americans ask whether its constitution needs a refresh, a look at a country that is trying to rewrite its own central document. Fareed talks to Andres Velasco, former Chilean finance minister and current London School of Economics public policy dean. And, space as you’ve never seen it before, a conversation with Mike Menzel, NASA’s lead mission systems engineer for the James Webb Space Telescope.
