Earlier, President Trump said 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: he was not intentionally fueling a market selloff. However, he 10 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: did say he will not claw back those US tariffs 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: unless deals were to eliminate the US trade deficit. Here 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: is Trump speaking to reporters aboard Air Force one. 13 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: We have massive surplus countries that we're dealing with.

It was just earlier today the Treasury 24 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 1: Secretary Scott Besson struck a defiant tone in the face 25 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: of sharp declines in global markets. Besson said the new 26 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: US tariffs were necessary, and he rejected the idea they 27 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: would cause a US recession.

And it's not 49 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 4: going to give She puts a signal he is going 50 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 4: to start to negotiate until Trump is early serious about 51 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 4: the escalating. It looks like Trump doesn't want to de 52 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 4: escalate with China because he wants to corner China and 53 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 4: to ridical reduction on the trade imbalance between US and China. 54 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: That is Uriel Rabini of Rabini Macro Associates, speaking earlier 55 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: to Bloomberg.
