Ahead of Monday's UN conference on aid to Afghanistan, UN Secretary-General António Guterres knows he can't turn Taliban-run Afghanistan into Sweden — but still hopes to ensure basic rights for all Afghans, including women and ethnic minorities, as well as prevent civil war and terrorism. For Guterres, it's time for "all the elements of the international community to come together and to engage with the Taliban positively." If we show them we can keep humanitarian aid flowing, Guterres says, perhaps we'll gain leverage and sell the Taliban on "the idea that they can become part of a normal world." Watch this clip from Ian Bremmer's exclusive interview with Guterres on GZERO World, which will air on US public television during the week of the 76th UN General Assembly.

Powering what's next

Energy used to be a predictable cost. Now it's a constraint on growth, and businesses are rethinking how they plan and build.

GZERO Media’s Tony Maciulis sat down with Susan Uthayakumar, Chief Energy and Sustainability Officer at Prologis, to discuss how rising power demand from automation, AI and fleet electrification is changing where and how companies build. Together, they examine the role real estate plays in energy infrastructure, what effective public-private partnerships look like, and how on-site power generation can support communities in crisis.
