As U.S. inflation rises at the fastest pace in over 30 years, Fareed asks former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers why it is happening and how it can be stopped. 

Then, as supply chain problems persist, Fareed asks New York Times correspondent Ana Swanson about America's puzzling shortage of truckers. 

And earlier this week the U.S. warned Russia not to make a “serious mistake” by rehashing its 2014 invasion of Ukraine. Fareed asks former National Security Council official Fiona Hill if another invasion is possible.

Finally, has Belarus manufactured a heartbreaking migration crisis for political revenge? Fareed explains.
