1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: Mitch mccanna is in the States for US this morning.

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: Which the deal, well, I say deal, but it hasn't

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 1: been signed by the Chinese yet, but Trump's pretty warm

4
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: on it, the trade deal with China.

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Good morning to you, Ryan. It's interesting

6
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: though Donald Trump has called this a deal, but really

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,920
Speaker 2: it's a bit of a framework to continue working on

8
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 2: a deal down the road. So they've had talks in

9
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: London in the last couple of days, China and the

10
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 2: United States, and they've come up with this framework to

11
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 2: work together in the coming months. While they sought all

12
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: these trade issues out. Now, there are a couple of

13
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 2: things each side wants. The United States wants these rare

14
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 2: earth minerals from China. They're used for all different types

15
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: of things. They're used in cars for windshields and magnets.

16
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 2: They're also used in defense equipment. So Donald Trump says, yes,

17
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 2: they will get some of that. And what China wanted

18
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 2: was the United States to ease up on the way

19
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 2: it's treating Chinese international students. Donald Trump says that will

20
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 2: happen as well, but we don't have a lot of

21
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 2: detail around this. So there's one other thing China wants,

22
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: and that is the US to continue exporting semiconductor chips

23
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 2: to China, which is really important to China. But we

24
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,479
Speaker 2: don't know if that's going to happen. So a lot

25
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 2: of unclear sort of detail around US. But Donald trump'sys

26
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 2: a deal of some sort has done.

27
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I suppose the most important thing is the

28
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: talking and Trump's saying, you know, our relationship is on

29
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: the men. Now, the protests, what's going on? What's the latest?

30
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: Anything kicking off while we were sleeping?

31
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 3: Not yet.

32
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: We are expecting large protests again across a number of

33
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: US cities in the coming hours. It's only mid afternoon

34
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 2: here in the United States at the moment, but since Friday,

35
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: three hundred and thirty people have been arrested in Los Angeles,

36
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 2: more than two hundred and forty in San fran a

37
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 2: dozen in Austin, and there was about thirty people arrested

38
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: in New York last night. But this isn't just playing

39
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: out on the streets. It's also playing out online and

40
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: on TV. Between Donald Trump and the Governor of California,

41
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom, who held us sort of national speech last

42
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 2: night that all the TV networks took live and some

43
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: people are suggesting he might be using this as an

44
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 2: opportunity to position himself as the leader of the opposition

45
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 2: here in the US. Of course, the Democrats are in disarray.

46
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: They don't have a clear leader. Some are seeing this

47
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 2: as Gavin Newsom's chance to do that ahead of the

48
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight election.

49
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: Good luck, what having last time they elected a liberal

50
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: Californian governor as their party leader. Hey, thanks so much

51
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: much good to have you on the show. Mitch McCann
