00:00In a significant development in global trade, U.S. President Donald Trump has reaffirmed that

00:05no nation is getting off the hook amid escalating tensions with China. Despite temporarily exempting

00:12certain high-tech products like smartphones and laptops from new tariffs, the administration

00:17plans to impose separate levies on these items within the next two months, citing national

00:22security concerns. This move follows China's call for the U.S. to completely cancel the 145%

00:29tariffs on Chinese goods, labeling the exemptions as a small step in correcting what it describes

00:35as the wrong practice of imposing such tariffs. In response, Chinese President Xi Jinping, during

00:42his Southeast Asia tour, emphasized that trade wars yield no winners, advocating for stable

00:49global supply, chains, and multilateral cooperation. Meanwhile, President Trump is set to host

00:55El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele at the White House. The meeting is expected to address

01:01immigration policies, including the deportation of immigrants to El Salvador, where concerns

01:08have been raised about the conditions in maximum security prisons. These developments underscore

01:13the complexities of international trade and diplomacy, with significant implications for

01:19global markets and geopolitical relations.
