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 first address to the U.N. General Assembly earlier this week:
 
"President Trump's speech to the United Nations was well delivered," Fareed says. "But it was a strange mishmash of topics and tones. There was one overriding theme -- the embrace of nationalism. And in striking that chord, Donald Trump did something unusual, perhaps unique for a U.S. president: He encouraged, even embraced the rise of a post-American world."
 
Then, Fareed speaks exclusively with Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif. What does he make of President Trump's criticism of the nuclear deal? How might Tehran react if President Trump decides to decertify Iran over the agreement? What does Zarif make of criticism from Arab nations about Iran's regional policy? Fareed discusses all this and more.

Also on the show, Fareed speaks with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani about U.S. policy toward his country. Is President Trump's strategy much different from his predecessor's? What should we make of reports about Taliban advances in Afghanistan? And how is he tackling corruption in the country?
