Hey, it's Ben Rhodes, and today I'm dropping in to share the first episode of my special

Pod Save the World Election Series.

The 2024 presidential election is likely to redefine our foreign policy, perhaps for decades to come.

That's why I'm taking you inside the key differences between Kamla Harris and Donald Trump

on the biggest global issues that we're facing today.

The wars in Ukraine in the Middle East. The rise of far-right parties in democratic backsliding around the world,

China's growing influence in competition with America,

and the fight against global climate change.

All of these issues will be hugely impacted by what

happens in our election in November. So if you enjoy this episode and want to

hear more, make sure you're subscribed to the Pod Save the world feed because what happens next shapes the future not just for America but for the entire globe.

New episodes will be released every Saturday between now and the election wherever you get your

podcast and on YouTube. Welcome to Patsy of the world, I'm Ben Rhodes and this is the first in a series of special episodes we're doing in the lead

up to November's election. We will be asking what the stakes are and Harris and

we look at some of the biggest issues we face globally across the course of five

episodes. So in the coming weeks we'll be looking at the issues that we've been

results of the election are gonna mean for the rest of the world.
