This week on Face the Nation, climate change, the global economy, and war in eastern Europe all come to a head as President Biden prepares for an overseas summit with NATO allies. Record breaking heat is driving Americans to seek cooler temperatures, even President Biden hit the beach over the weekend to recharge before he leaves for Europe. We spoke exclusively with Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen from Beijing about her efforts to lower tension between the world’s two largest economies, even as trade disputes ramp up. The war in Ukraine reached the 500 day mark as President Biden made what he called a "difficult" decision to send controversial cluster bombs to help defeat the Russians. Democratic Senator Chris Coons, and Ukrainian Ambassador to the US Oksana Markarova joined us. Plus, we'll take a look at a new push by the nation's governors to help children's mental health with Utah's Republican Governor Spencer Cox.
