America, he adds, is ready to help other nations follow that path.

One thing that can facilitate the transition to clean energy is new technology. The problem is scale, but Kerry says to watch out for some breakthroughs on carbon capture and fusion.

Ian Bremmer's Quick Take: The assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah saw "virtually no response," demonstrating Israel's ability to "strike their enemies with virtual impunity and with virtually no capacity for them to strike back effectively," says Ian Bremmer.
