About this episode

As Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi departs for her trip to Asia, Fareed asks Adm. Mike Mullen (Ret.), former Joint Chiefs Chairman, if she will visit Taiwan and how China might react. Pivoting to the war in Ukraine, Fareed asks Mullen if Kyiv can be successful in its attempts to take back territory from Russia. Plus, an inside look at one of the most influential companies you've probably never heard of: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. Fareed sits down with its chairman, Mark Liu, to talk technology, politics in the region and why war with China would be a lose-lose-lose situation.

GUESTS: Mike Mullen, Mark Liu
