| 0:00.0 | This is GPS, the Global Public Square. |
| 0:04.0 | Welcome to all of you in the United States and around the world. |
| 0:08.0 | I'm Farid Zakaria, coming to you live from New York. |
| 0:11.0 | Today on the program, stalemate over the Strait of Hormuz. |
| 0:16.0 | The world waits to see who will blink first, Iran or America. |
| 0:20.0 | I'll talk about that and more with |
| 0:22.6 | Anne-Marie Slaughter and Admiral James Stavridis. Then, despite the standoff in the |
