>> reporter: luria's well-funded campaign paints her gop opponent as an extremist. >> emdrextremist? >> thanks so much for spending your sunday morning with us. fareed zakaria starts now with a brand new interview with defense secretary lloyd austin. this is "gps," the global public square. welcome to you from around the united states and the world. i'm fareed zakaria coming to you from new york. today on the program, u.s. defense secretary lloyd austin joins me exclusively. we'll talk about the war in ukraine and how it is going.
7:01 am
putin's nuclear threats and the annexation of ukraine's lands. and fears of a chinese attack on taiwan. also, just what is vladamir putin thinking? i will talk to one of russia's richest men who knew the russian president well before putin jailed him. finally, the new term of the supreme court starts tomorrow. i will give you a sneak peek of my newest documentary, "supreme power, inside the highest court in the land" airs tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern and pacific. but first, here's my take. italy and sweden are about as different as two european countries can get. one is catholic, mediterranean, sunny and chaotic. the other protestant, northern, chilly, and ordered.
7:02 am
over the decades, they've had very different political trajectories. but both are witnessing the rising parties that have connection to fascism, coinciding with collapse of support of the center left. all having to do with immigration. the likely next prime minister of italy is a charismatic 45-year-old politician. her campaign promised a familiar attack on the forces of globalization, and a comforting story she would somehow bring back the good old days before george soros ruined everything. she says he's proud of all the things that globalists want you to be ashamed of. being christian, a mother, italian, et cetera. a big part of her actual program is immigration. nations only exist if there are borders and those are defended,
7:03 am
she says. promising a thnave aid blockadef that's what it takes. the appeal of sweden democrats, the far-right party, centers also around immigration. the party talks a great deal about the rise of crime, gang violence and use of the country's generous welfare state. but the main proposal what a 30-point plan designed to turn sweden into the most restrictive immigration places in europe. it is time to put sweden first, says jimmy akison, the 43-year-old leader of swedish democrats. there is lots of demagoguery, but there is also an important truth at the heart of their appeal, immigration in many european countries is out of control. by out of control, i do not mean it's too high. it's impossible to say what the
7:04 am
right number is for any given country. i mean that migration is now largely taking place in a chaotic manner with massive surges and flows, rampant human smuggling and crime, and a total breakdown of the legal system by which countries evaluate and admit applicants. sweden now has 20% of its population foreign born, which is much higher than the united states. where that number is about 14%. america is different from europe. american identity is political, while european countries national tryhas been based on culture and ethnicity. but there are limits how much people a country can absorb. about 5% of people born in the u.s. was foreign born. since then that number has almost tripled.
7:05 am
what enrages them is the sense that people no longer become immigrants through a process, that the host country controls, but rather by crossing the border illegally, claiming asylum state status, gaining entry and simply sticking around. and that fear is justified. the american asylum system has broken down. it was designed after world war ii in the wake of the holocaust to take in people who faced immediate and dire persecution. today, many people seeking asylum face hardships but much like those that have traditionally led people to seek a better life here. poverty, crime, disease, dislocation. they are deeply deserving of dignity and decent treatment. but anyone claiming asylum for only those reasons is abusing the system in order to bypass the normal immigration process. and that process in america is
7:06 am
now utterly dysfunctional. already clogged and understaffed, donald trump deliberately jammed it up even more to the point that routine business visa applications from countries like india, can take months. students cannot enter the united states even after getting scholarships. and work visa applications now rest on the chance of applicants winning a lottery. the biden administration is going into this midterm with a strong hand. it could be undone by this one issue. it's found an intelligence way to speed up the consideration of asylum requests. there are more than 670,000 people living in america waiting for their asylum applications to be considered. biden needs to find a way to t demonstrate his administration is taking control of immigration
7:07 am
in general and the border in particular. then he can offer a better, faster path to legal immigration, and a more effective way to restrict illegal immigration. or else, the populous right wing will use this issue to keep gaining ground in america just as it has in italy and sweden. let's get started. ♪ ♪ with my exclusive interview with the secretary of defense lloyd austin. he spent 41 years in the army, finishing up as commander of centcom. when we spoke on friday, he was in hawaii, where he held meetings with indo-pacific
7:08 am
allies about security in that region. we'll get to that in a moment, but first, russia and ukraine. secretary austin, pleasure to have you on the program. >> thanks, fareed. a real pleasure to be with you. >> i was in ukraine a couple of weeks and talked to a number of people there, including your counterpart. one of the things that they do say is that they would dearly wish for more american weaponry, but particularly longer range weapons. the biden administration has been hesitant to do that, because of the fear of these weapons essentially reaching into russia, seeming to be an attack on russia. now, my question to you is, russia has just changed the game. they have annexed all this -- all the entire donbas, all those four regions. so in effect, in missile that hits russian positions in the donbas is already an attack on russia.
7:09 am
in this new circumstance, why not lean forward, give the ukrainians the longer-range weaponry they're asking for. by russian law, you're hitting russia any way when missiles hit the donbas. >> two things here, fareed. as you heard us say, this referendum is a sham, it's fiction. and we will never respect their illegal annexation of ukraine territory. and nor will most of the international community. so that's one thing. the second thing is, you know, i talked to my counterpart, the minister of defense there in ukraine, routinely. we talk about what's -- how the fight's going, what's needed, and what's upcoming. and we've been very effective in providing them those things that are very, very effective on a
7:10 am
battlefield, and they have used them in the right way. so they have the capability with the himars and other weaponry, and they can range targets in almost every piece of ukrainian territory. >> part of the annexation -- russia's annexation is the statement by president putin he's made twice, that these territories are now russian, and he will defend these russian territories with every means possible. and russian media has repeatedry interpreted that to mean very xe specifically nuclear weapons, as has medvedev. this seems to raise the stakes enormously. what do you make of the fact that vladamir putin is essentially saying at this point that if he feels there is an
7:11 am
attack from nato, i suppose, on russian territory, which now includes all of the donbas, he reserves the right to use nuclear weapons in response. >> again, it's an illegal claim. it's an irresponsible statement. these are -- this nuclear saber rattling is not the kind of thing we would expect to hear from leaders of large countries with capability. and so what we can expect to see, we can expect the ukrainians will continue to move forward and attempt to take back all of the territory within their -- within their sovereign borders here. so i don't think that's going to stop, and we will continue to support them in their efforts. >> have you conveyed to the russians privately just how
7:12 am
dangerous these threats are, or what kind of retaliation they might expect from the west were there to be a use of tactical nuclear weapons? >> well, you heard people in our -- in our leadership, among our leadership that have said we have communicated to them recently. personally, i've not talked to shoigu in recent days, but i have talked to him in the past and addressed this very issue and warned to not go down this path and conduct this type of irresponsible behavior. so yes, i have done that in the past personally, but i've not talked to him recently. >> did you get the sense that he got it? you felt like he heard your message? >> i do. i think he heard my message. but to be clear, the guy who makes that decision -- it's one
7:13 am
man. there are no checks on mr. putin. just as he made the irresponsible decision to invade ukraine, you know, he could make another decision. but i don't see anything right now that would lead me to believe he has made such a decision. >> mr. secretary, what is your analysis of how well ukraine has done? we've all seen and been stunned by this recapture of territory, the russians fleeing. but what i want to ask you is a question everyone has is, they've been able to do a lot. they'll probably be able to push forward some more. but is it likely in the next few months the ukrainians will be able to really rout the russian position in the donbas, or are we likely to get to some kind of stalemate where ukraine takes back some territory, russia defends a lot of it and they're
7:14 am
stuck in a stalemate. >> it's hard to predict what is going to happen. i think the ukrainians have amazed the world in terms of their ability to fight back, their ability to exercise initiative, their commitment to the defense of their democracy, and that willingness to fight has rallied the international community in an effort to help provide them the security assistance so that they can continue to fight. they did a magnificent job early on. they won the battle of kyiv. we saw a bit of a slowdown, a stalemate as the battle transitioned to the donbas, and it was defined by long-range fires. but as the ukrainians began to receive the technology hike himars and employed that technology the right way and began to conduct attacks on
7:15 am
things like logistical stores and command and control, that's taking away -- taken away significant capability from the russians. that's also changed the dynamics and created an opportunity for the ukrainians to maneuver. so what we're seeing now is a change in the battlefield dynamics. they've done very well in the kharkiv area, and moved to take advantage of opportunities. the fight in the kherson region is going a it will slower, but they're making progress. so they're getting the right things and employing the right way. so it's not just about the equipment that you have, fareed, but how you employ that equipment, how you synchronize thinks together that can create opportunities. and they've done very, very well. in terms of what will happen going forward, hard to predict.
7:16 am
but i would say that whatever direction that this goes in, we will continue to provide security assistance to the ukrainians for as long as it takes. we're all very hopeful that they will continue to make progress at the rite they have. but, again, i fought in enough wars and battles to know that no one can really predict a particular outcome of any battle. you just have to focus on doing the right things at the right time. and so we will continue to support the ukrainians as you have heard our president say for as long as it takes. next on "gps," from ukraine to taiwan, does the american secretary of defense think that china will attack the self-governing island? and how will the united states respond if it does? back in a moment. no allergy sp. with the speed of astepro, almost nothing can slow you down. because astepro starts working in 30 minutes,

two weeks ago, joe biden pledged on "60 minutes" to defend taiwan if the island were to be attacked. the man who would have to oversee, manage, and execute that defense is my guest, defense secretary lloyd austin. i wanted to get his take on the matter. joe biden said if china were to invade taiwan, the united states would come to its defense, and he was very categorical, american men and women would fight to defend against that attack. that has struck many people as a line further than presidents have committed to in the past. are you preparing the american military for a full-out defense
7:22 am
of taiwan using all america's means if there were to be an invasion? >> the president has been consistent in his approach to this in what he said. he's also said on a number of occasions, fareed, that our china policy, one-china policy hasn't changed. in addition to that, he said that, you know, it's -- we don't want to see a unilateral change to the status quo. and so, again, we'll continue to do what we have been doing in working with our allies and partners, to make sure that we can maintain a free and open indo pacific region. in accordance with the taiwan relations act, we're committed to helping taiwan develop the capability to defend itself. and that work has gone on over time and will continue into the
7:23 am
future. >> but as you said, mr. secretary, in a very diplomatic answer, the taiwan relations act commits the united states to help taiwan defend itself. joe biden said the united states will defend taiwan. these are two different things with enormous implications. the president has clearly said he wants the second. is the american military prepared to do that? >> the american military is always prepared to protect our interests, and live up to our commitments. now, certainly the president was clear in providing his answers as he responded to a hypothetical question. but, again, we continue to work to make sure that we have the right capabilities in the right places to ensure that we help our allies maintain a free throw and open indo pacific. >> you are in the asia pacific,
7:24 am
dealing with some of the issues that the countries there are asking you about. when i talked to leaders there regarding the central issue of taiwan, what i hear is they're all concerned about china's increasing rhetoric, and they do think the immediate crisis has passed, the period of nancy pelosi's visit, and they don't seem to fear an imminent invasion by china. would you agree with that? >> i would, fareed. i don't see an imminent invasion either. what we do see is china moving to establish what we would call a new normal, increased activity. we saw a number of center line crossings of the taiwan strait by their aircraft. and that number has increased over time.
7:25 am
we've seen more activity with their surface vessels in the waters in and around taiwan. so i think that china used that opportunity of a congressional delegation's visit to begin to create a new normal. again, this is something that bears watching. we're going to continue to work with our allies and partners in the region to make sure that we're doing what is necessary to ensure that we maintain a free and open indo pacific. we want to be able to sail the seas and fly the skies in international airways, so we'll continue to say focused on that. >> as china develops its military capacity, as it moves more aggressively forward in places like the taiwan straits, the south china sea, it seems the risk of some kind of
7:26 am
miscalculation could grow. i'm wondering, are you comfortable with the level of dialogue you have with your counterpart in china? and do you wish you could have better working relationships with the chinese military, if nothing else, to avoid some kind of miscalculation? >> i think those open channels are critical to both of us. i think that we should do everything that we can to ensure that we have the ability to engage our counterparts routinely. i've spoken with the minister on the phone and in person and emphasized how important this is. we'll do everything we can to continue to signal that we want does channels open, and i would hope that china would begin to lean forward a bit more and work with us.
7:27 am
>> but they're not open right now. what does he say to you when you tell him that? >> of course, he agreed that it is important, but you're right, they're not open. we'll keep working to ensure that we can open them. >> mr. secretary, pleasure and honor to have you on the program, sir. >> always a pleasure, fareed. next on "gps," understanding putin. i talk to former russian oligarch for his insight on what putin may be thinking with his explosive rhetoric and erratic moves.
7:28 am
the lows of bipolar depression can leave you down and in the dark. but what if you could begin to see the signs of hope all around you? what if you could let in the lyte? discover caplyta. caplyta is a once-daily pill, proven to deliver significant relief from bipolar depression. unlike some medicines that only treat bipolar i, caplyta treats both bipolar i and bipolar ii depression. and, in clinical trials, feelings of inner restlessness and weight gain were not common. caplyta can cause serious side effects. call your doctor about sudden mood changes, behaviors, or suicidal thoughts right away. antidepressants may increase these risks in young adults. elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke. report fever, stiff muscles, or confusion, which may be life-threatening, or uncontrollable muscle movements, which may be permanent.
7:29 am
these aren't all the serious side effects. in the darkness of bipolar i and ii depression, caplyta can help you let in the lyte. ask your doctor about caplyta, from intra-cellular therapies. okay everyone, our mission is to provide complete balanced nutrition for strength and energy. woo hoo! ensure, complete balanced nutrition with 27 vitamins and minerals. and ensure complete with 30 grams of protein. ♪ ♪ (vo) get the new iphone 14 pro on us. right now t-mobile is including apple business essentials

it's the big question in global affairs today. what in the world is vladamir putin thinking? it may not be answerable by anybody except the russian president himself. but i find it helpful to talk to people who know putin, who worked with him. my next guest fits that bill. mikhail was a russian oligarch, owner of a russian oil and gas company, and at one time, the richest man in russia. but then he got on putin's bad side by promoting reforms in russia and spent a decade in prison for fraud and tax evasion. charges he says were politically motivated. he's now one of putin's biggest critics and lives in excite in the uk. his new book is "the russian conundrum." mikhail, welcome. so let me ask you first the question i think that is the most urgent and important, which is putin's threat to use nuclear
7:33 am
weapons. he said this is not a bluff. what do you think, is putin bluffing? >> translator: putin is in a difficult situation now. if he loses in ukraine, he's going to lose power and also possibly his life. and in this context, he's ready to use any method at his disposal. it's not a bluff. with you at the same time, the mere fact that he's declared mobilization, this means that in the nearest future, he's not planning to use nuclear weapons. and it is unlikely this is going to be proposed before the beginning of next year. >> but, but let me just be clear, you're saying that he's now going to try, as it were, to
7:34 am
use mobilization, and to use these new 300,000 russian forces to attack the ukrainians. but you do believe that if that doesn't work, and if he is cornered, he could, in fact, use nuclear weapons? >> translator: i think that if mobilization does not yield the desired victory, the question of using tactical nuclear weapons is going to be on the agenda. >> and when you think about this question, how are you thinking about what putin's mindset is right now? you said he's worried about losing, because if he loses in ukraine, he would -- he would lose in russia, and he might even lose his life. explain to me how that would work. >> translator: when he declared mobilization, he made a very dangerous step.
7:35 am
he has handed weapons into the arms of common people, ordinary people. who are these ordinary people? when they arrive on the battlefield and find out what's happening there, they can easily turn their arms against the kremlin itself. and this has already happened in russian history before. 100 years ago it happened. >> the last time you talked to him, you said he told you it's all right for you to keep doing what you're doing, but make sure your company does not in any way fund the mpolitical opposition, and you said the company won't, but i'm not going to promise that any individual will not. what i'm wondering, tell us what his -- what was he like at that time? was he threatening? was it like a mafia boss? give us a sense of how putin
7:36 am
wields power. >> translator: in the kremlin during our conversation, it became clear that he decided to rule the country as one would rule, but at the time he was am bloody dictator. this happened in front of our eyes. in front of our eyes, step by step, from somebody who violated a sovereignty of a neighboring country in 2014, when he annexed crimea. from that person, through the person who decided to attack a neighboring country, this evolution has happened from an autocrat via a dictator into a bloody murderer. a bloody assassin. >> do you think people like president macron and chancellor sholz should be talking to
7:37 am
vladamir putin at all? >> translator: i think that dialogue is necessary with anyone. even if it's against them after they have taken hostages. nevertheless, we have to realize for any gangster a dialogue with this gangster in a situation where the gangster feels he has the upper hand is demonstrating your weakness. and if you demonstrate your weakness over and over again trying to negotiate something with this gangster, this provokes this gangster to further attack, to further steps. because they think that they're strong when they're, in fact, weak. i think this is the problem of some western leaders trying to negotiate with putin and don't take it into account. >> stay with us. we'll be back with more of my interview with mikhail.

7:42 am
and we are back with the man who was once russia's most successful businessmen. he now lives in exile in london. you say in your book that as long as putin and his regime is ruling russia, russia should be treated like north korea. but the question i have is, like north korea in a way, many people have been waiting to see fissures or cracks in the ruling elite in russia or some sense that putin is under pressure. and so far, it's been difficult to find. do you think there are cracks in putin's structure of power? >> translator: these cracks undoubtedly have appeared after the mobilization was declared.
7:43 am
and these cracks are between those people who think that they should be no doubt about the war. and those people who understand that what is happening now is kicking them out. not just from a civilized community of people, politicians, but from life itself. expelling them, not just them, but their families, as well. and this split, these cracks have already appeared. >> so one way, of course, to deal with this issue is more assistance to ukraine, help ukraine do better and better on the battle front. is there any -- are there other things that western countries can do to help put the pressure on vladamir putin?
7:44 am
>> translator: i think that the moment, the most effective lever of pressure on putin is victory on the battlefield. if the supplies of modern weapons allowed ukraine to quickly move to the internationally recognized borders, this would remove the risks. but when we're talking about longer term, here the west has a serious lever of pressure of influence. these are sanctions. and i think that sanctions linked to curbing prices on energy are quite odd. the decision that has been offered now on having a cap on russian energy, is something
7:45 am
that doesn't work in the market economy. if our objective is to reduce the income that russia is getting from selling energy, from supplying energy, one could introduce tariffs for russian energy supplies that would actually remove the premium that russia is getting today, because the european market for russian energy supplies is a premium market. of course, this would not impact short term. but in the medium term, it would have a really serious blow to the finals that putin has at his disposal. >> when i look at russia and putin, what strikes me is how personalized the power structure is. you know, when you think about the rules of succession, for
7:46 am
example. we know what happens in a monarchy. when the king dies, the crown prince becomes the king. if the polit bureau this china, if the leader dies, they elect a new leader. what happen it is putin dies? it feels like nobody knows. russia is not run by a set of institutions but by this one man. >> translator: over the past 20 years of his rule, putin has formed a totally criminal government. it is a regime he's holding under his control, because he's pitching people against each other in his entourage. this already happened in the soviet union under stalin. after stalin's death, his closest circle fell into
7:47 am
conflicts, which lasted for two years. and then they crowned khr khrushchev. so if nothing is being done, a similar scenario would emerge after the death of vladamir putin. anyone who aspires to become the next putin would either have to face -- put his faith in the power structures, including the security -- various security services or guarantee their entourage a better relationship with the best. this is important, because russian society is tired of a strong hand. and i think it is quite likely the second type of leader is going to be integrated demand. if they work together, russian opposition, the regions, and the west, there is a great chance that we will get a normal,
7:48 am
acceptable, peacefully minded country. with quite a sufficient democratic political leadership. at least at the federal level. >> mikhail, pleasure to have you on. >> translator: thank you. thank you. next on "gps," i will give you a sneak preview of my latest documentary on the huge controversies broiling in the supreme court of the united states. i get into the leaks, the overturning of precedent, politics, the personalities, the history. that preview in just a moment. >> tech: don't wait. schedule today. ♪ pop rock music ♪ >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪
