French President Emmanuel Macron and IBM Vice Chairman Gary Cohn
Description
This week on Face the Nation, as world leaders gather in New York for the annual United Nations General Assembly, we look ahead to the biggest issues the world will tackle. With Russia and Israel intensifying their offensive efforts in both the war in Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict, we'll preview a crucial week ahead as President Trump heads to his first U.N. meeting of his second term.
We sit down with French President Emmanuel Macron to discuss why France and other U.S. allies are moving ahead with recognizing Palestinian statehood, despite strong opposition from the U.S. and Israel.
Plus, we traveled to Syria for an upcoming 60 Minutes piece and spoke to the country's new president, Ahmed al-Sharaa. He'll be the first Syrian President to address the UN in nearly 60 years. We'll tell you why he's such a controversial figure.
Finally, the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates by a quarter point. What does that signal for the economy? Former White House economic adviser Gary Cohn joins us to discuss the latest on the rate cut, the cooling labor market, tariffs and more.
It's all just ahead on Face the Nation
