1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 1: Doug Prisner. Ukrainian President Voladimir Zelenski says he's willing to

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: meet with President Trump if invited again, to solve real problems.

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: Speaking in London, Zelensky said Ukraine is ready to accept

5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: a minerals deal that was put on hold last week,

6
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: and he said the deal is ready to be signed

7
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 1: by Ukrainian ministers. Zelenski chose his words carefully after last

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: Friday's blow up in the Oval Office. Zelensky was in

9
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: London over the weekend attending a security summit of European

10
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: leaders meant to rally support for Ukraine. British Prime Minister

11
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: Kiir Starmer, Italy's Georgia Maloney and French President Emmanuel Macran

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 1: tried to repair the clash between Trump and Zelenski at

13
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: the White House and bring the twoe back to the table.

14
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: European leaders also fast tracked efforts to improve their own

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: defense capabilities. Meantime, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted

16
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: President Trump is still committed to bringing peace in US Ukraine.

17
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: Here is Rubio speaking earlier on ABC's This Week.

18
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 2: I've asked every foreign minister I meet with, tell me

19
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: your idea of how this turns out. Most don't have

20
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: a plan. A few have said, well, let's give him

21
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: another year of fighting a year from now, a year later,

22
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: after another year of death, another year of destruction, then

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 2: maybe Putin will be ready to negotiate at that point.

24
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 2: That doesn't sound like a good plan to me, and

25
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 2: it certainly is not a plan the President's on board with.

26
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: That is Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Speaking earlier on

27
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: ABC's This Week Now, Rubio did go on to say

28
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: he hopes Ukrainian President Zelenski will see President Trump's commitment

29
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: on ending the war and come to the negotiating table.

30
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: He also said a ceasefire deal will be difficult, but

31
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: it's the best path forward. On Tuesday, the President is

32
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: planning to impose new tariffs on Canada and Mexico, and

33
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,919
Speaker 1: at the same time he will double the tariff on China.

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: In total, these tariffs would apply to roughly one point

35
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: five trillion dollars worth of annual imports to the United States.

36
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: The tariffs may be delayed. The Canada and Mexico measures

37
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: were already stalled once, but any reprieve could be temporary,

38
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 1: with a host of other Trump levies due in April. Today,

39
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik said both Canada and Mexico have

40
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: been working hard on controlling their respective borders. However, Lutnik

41
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: added fentanyl was still an issue here. He is speaking

42
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: to Fox News.

43
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 3: They have done a lot, so he's sort of thinking

44
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: about right now how exactly he wants to play it

45
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 3: with Mexico and Canada, and that is a fluid situation.

46
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 3: There are going to be tariffs on Tuesday on Mexico

47
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 3: and Canada. Exactly what they are, We're going to leave

48
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: that for the President and his team to negotiate.

49
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik, speaking earlier on Fox News Earlier today,

50
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau vowed a strong response to

51
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: any tariffs President Trump would impose. Earlier today, the president

52
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: sparked a rally in digital currencies, but it has since faded.

53
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: Trump said his executive order directed the Presidential Working Group

54
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: to move forward on a crypto strategic reserves. He said

55
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: it will include XRP, Solana, and Cardano. Then, in a

56
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: second truth social post published a little more than an

57
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 1: hour later, Trump added Obviously, Bitcoin and ethereum, as other

58
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: valuable cryptocurrencies, will be at the heart of this reserve.

59
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: We go next to the Middle East. Israel has stopped

60
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: all humanitarian aid from entering Gaza.

61
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 4: Now.

62
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: This comes after the first phase of a ceasefire deal

63
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: with Hamas expired. Prime Minister Benjamin Netnia who said Hamas

64
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: has refused to accept a US proposal to extend the

65
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: truth's agreement. Here is net Niyahu.

66
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 4: We will take further steps if Kamas continues to hold

67
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 4: our hostages. And throughout this Israel knows that America and

68
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 4: the President Trump have are back. Thank you again, President Trump.

69
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: That is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin net Niahu. The move

70
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: to stop all humanitarian aid from entering Gaza has sparked

71
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: criticism from the Palestinian authority and human rights grew hoops.

72
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: They accuse Israel of collective punishment and exploiting humanitarian aid

73
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: as a tool of blackmail. The February jobs report will

74
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: be the highlight in a busy week for economic data.
