On Today's Show

On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN:

First, Fareed gives his Take on President Trump's call for better US-Russia ties, and discusses whether Russia may have been "lost" from the start.
 
"Yes, the West and America might have missed an opportunity to transform Russia in the early 1990's. We don't know if it would have worked. But what we do know is that there were darker forces growing in Russia from the beginning, that those forces took over the country almost two decades ago, and that since then it is Russia that has chosen to become the principal foe of America and the American-created world order," Fareed says.
 
Next, Fareed hosts a live panel to discuss President Trump's meeting with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, the criticism of that meeting, and what we might be able to expect moving forward. Joining Fareed to discuss this and more will be Katrina vanden Heuvel, editor and publisher of The Nation magazine, David Remnick, editor of The New Yorker, Stephen Sestanovich, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Andrei Kozyrev, a former foreign minister of the Russian Federation.

Plus: How was Russia able to meddle in the 2016 election? What might it do in the midterms? Fareed is joined by David Sanger, a CNN contributor, national security correspondent for The New York Times and the author of "The Perfect Weapon: War, Sabotage, and Fear in the Cyber Age," to discuss the country's cyber capabilities and more.

Also: Fareed speaks with CNN Global Affairs Analyst Antony Blinken, a former deputy secretary of state and deputy national security adviser, about his New York Times article this week on the lessons of France's soccer World Cup success. Can France can do for its recent immigrants and their neighborhoods what a melting pot team has just done for its country?
