00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio news.

2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 2: Good morning.

3
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 3: I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the

4
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 3: stories we're following today.

5
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:18,319
Speaker 2: Karen, we begin with the latest on the Global Trade Board.

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 2: President Donald Trump has unveiled a wave of letters again

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 2: threatening to impose higher tariff rates on key trading partners.

8
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 2: They include twenty five percent levies on goods from Japan

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 2: and South Korea, as well as tariff plans for more

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 2: than a dozen other nations, including South Africa, Indonesia, Thailand,

11
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,639
Speaker 2: and Cambodia. But in a move reminiscent of previous delays,

12
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: the President also teased the possibility of further talks.

13
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 4: I would say firm, but not one hundred percent firm.

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 4: If they call up and they say would like to

15
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 4: do something a different way, we're going to be open

16
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 4: to that. But essentially that's the way it is right now.

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 2: President Trump spoke shortly after signing an executive order delaying

18
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 2: the new rates from July ninth tomorrow to August first, first.

19
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: That effectively buys countries an extra three weeks to cut

20
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: a deal with the White House.

21
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Nathan, a day after President Trump sent out those letters.

22
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 3: Marco Rubio is making his first trip to Asia as

23
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 3: the top US diplomat. The Secretary of State is heading

24
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 3: to a summit in Malaysia for a gathering at the

25
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 3: Association of Southeast Asian Nations. Malaysia's one of the countries

26
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 3: that received a tariff letter yesterday.

27
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 2: I meanwhile in Europe car and the EU is trying

28
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: to lock in a preliminary trade deal with the US

29
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: this week. Let's go to London get the latest of

30
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 2: Bloomberg's un potts you and what is the latest?

31
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 5: Nathan and Karen. Trump's tariff deadline may have been delayed,

32
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 5: but Brussels isn't taking any chances. Bloomberg has learned the

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 5: EU is seeking a preliminary trade settlement with the US

34
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 5: this week that would allow it to lock in a

35
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 5: ten percent tariff rate beyond August first. This is a negotiate,

36
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 5: a more permanent agreement. We understand. The EU is also

37
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 5: seeking an exemption for certain key products, including aircraft and

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 5: aircraft parts, as well as wines and spirits. In London,

39
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 5: I'm ewing pots and yet all.

40
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 3: Right you and thanks now to the latest in the

41
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 3: war in Ukraine. Just days after speaking with President Vladimir Zelenski.

42
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 3: President Trump says he will send more weapons to the country.

43
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 4: We're going to send some more weapons. They have to

44
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 4: be able to defend themselves. They're getting hit very hard.

45
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 4: Now they're getting hit very hard. We're going to have

46
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 4: to send more weapons. You hat, defensive weapons primarily, but

47
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 4: they're getting hit very, very hard.

48
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 3: President Trump's decision comes after the Pentagon halted flows of

49
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 3: some air defense missiles and artillery shells to Ukraine and Karen.

50
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 2: It comes as President Trump hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin

51
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 2: Natan Yahoo at the White House last night. The Israeli

52
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 2: leader keeped praise on the President as he pushes for

53
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 2: a ceasefire in Gaza.

54
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 6: He's forging peace as we speak, in one country and

55
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 6: one region after the other. So I want to present

56
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 6: to you President the letter I sent to the Normal

57
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 6: Prize Committee. It's momenting you for the Peace Prize, which

58
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 6: is well deserved and you should get it. Thank you

59
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 6: very much.

60
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 2: This I didn't know a Prime Minister Natanya who presented

61
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 2: President Trump with that Nobel Peace Prize nomination in the

62
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: Oval Office. The President has long sought the Nobel, He's

63
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 2: expressed irritation that former President Barack Obama got it before

64
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: surging troops into Afghanistan Natanya, whose visit comes weeks after

65
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: the US dropped bombs on Iran's nuclear sites. President Trump

66
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 2: says the US and Iran will meet soon and he's

67
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 2: open till lifting sanctions now.

68
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 3: Nathan, Let's get you an update on the disaster in

69
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 3: Texas Hill Country. They confirmed death toll now up to

70
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 3: one hundred and four from the flash floods that tour

71
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: through the region over the weekend. That includes twenty seven

72
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: children and counselors from the Mystic Girls summer camp along

73
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 3: the Guadalupe River. Kervell, Texas Mayor Joe Hering Junior, says

74
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 3: there may be more heartache to come.

75
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 2: Primary search continues and we remain hopeful every foot, every mile,

76
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: every bend of the river.

77
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: And as the search effort continues, authorities are facing questions

78
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 3: about why the area lacked warning sirens and whether the

79
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 3: forecasts warned enough about the risk of catastrophic flooding. Texas

80
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,839
Speaker 3: Senator Ted Crue says the focus should be on recovery.

81
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 7: We will have a reasonable conversation about a are there

82
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 7: any ways to have earlier detection, and some of that

83
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 7: the limits of a flash flood. They're very difficult because

84
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 7: they could arise so quickly.

85
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 3: Senator Ted cru says President Trump has promised to provide

86
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 3: any resource as the state needs for its response. The

87
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,799
Speaker 3: President says he'll visit Texas on Friday.

88
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 2: Well, Kron, A big change maybe coming soon to airports security.

89
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: Bloomberg News has learned the Transportation Security Administrations planning to

90
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: update its policies so travelers no longer have to remove

91
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 2: their shoes at standard screening checkpoints. The move would extend

92
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 2: a benefit that's already available for those who pay for

93
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 2: TSA pre check. The US would join other global aviation

94
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 2: hubs like the European Union, Dubai, and Singapore that do

95
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 2: not require travelers to remove their shoes.

96
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 3: Nathan, let's turn to company news now, and Apple may

97
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 3: be facing an exodus of top talent. Let's get the

98
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: details a Bloomberg's John Tucker and John, where are they going?

99
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 8: Well, Karen, A lot of them are going to meta platforms.

100
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 8: One of the first out the door, Rubing Pang, a

101
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 8: distinguished engineer and a manager in charge of the Apple

102
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 8: Foundation Models Team AFM Meta dangled tens of millions of

103
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 8: dollars a year in front of this engineer. He's going

104
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 8: to work for Meta's new superintelligence group. A Pang's departure

105
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 8: could be the start of a string of exits from AFM,

106
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 8: with several engineers telling colleagues they're planning to leave in

107
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 8: the near future. Tom Gunter, a top deputy to Pang,

108
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 8: left Apple last month. A Pang's departure the most significant

109
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 8: in Apple's AI ranks since the company started working on

110
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 8: Apple Intelligence a few years ago. Now it's not going

111
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 8: to help Apples push into AI, which has been described

112
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 8: as flailing. A Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has on a

113
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 8: hiring spree, bringing on major AI leaders who are going

114
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 8: to work directly with him. You knoww York, John Tucker,

115
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 8: Bloomberg Radio.

116
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 2: All right, John, thank you.

117
00:05:59,120 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 3: No.

118
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: Vardes has on regulatory approval for the first medicine specifically

119
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: designed to treat malaria in babies. The drugmaker says until now,

120
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 2: infants with malaria were typically treated with tablets meant for

121
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 2: older children, but adjusted for weight. In twenty twenty three,

122
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 2: the World Health Organization said there were nearly six hundred

123
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 2: thousand malaria related deaths children under five accounted for three

124
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 2: and four of them.

125
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 3: It's time now for a look at some of the

126
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 3: other stories making news in New York and around the world,

127
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,559
Speaker 3: and for that we're joined by Bloomberg's Michael Barr Michael,

128
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 3: Good Morning.

129
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 9: Good Morning Karen. A federal judge is ordering a Homeland

130
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,119
Speaker 9: Security official to appear in court on Thursday and map

131
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 9: out the government's plans for Kilmar Abrego Garcia. It comes

132
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 9: after federal prosecutors said they would initiate deportation proceedings against

133
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 9: him if he is released from jail before trial on

134
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 9: human smuggling charges. Attorneys for Abrego Garcia requested he'd be

135
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 9: returned to Maryland from Tennessee, where he's being detained. Attorney

136
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 9: Simon Sandebald Motionenberg says Thursday's hearing is a sign the

137
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 9: judge is notably tired of hearing from prosecutors who claim

138
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 9: to not have information.

139
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 7: If they want to deport him to a third country,

140
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 7: they need to name that country, and they need to

141
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 7: describe the process by which they're going to give him

142
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 7: due process.

143
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 9: Attorney Motionenberg says Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported to El Salvador.

144
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 9: He was living in Maryland with his wife and child,

145
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 9: both of whom are American citizens. The Mayor of Los

146
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 9: Angeles denies there was a hostile crowd threatening federal immigration

147
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 9: agents at MacArthur Park in LA. Approximately ninety armed National

148
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 9: Guard troops were deployed to protect ICE agents. Mayor Karen

149
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 9: Vass it.

150
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 10: Is outrageous and Unamerican that we have federal armed vehicles

151
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 10: in our parks when nothing is going on in the parks.

152
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 9: Meanwhile, in eighteen state court filing led by Californa YEAH

153
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 9: alleges that federal immigration agents are impeding on the Fourth

154
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 9: Amendment protection against Unreasonable search and seizure. Boston University is

155
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 9: cutting one hundred and twenty staff positions and one hundred

156
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 9: twenty vacancies to reduce spending by five percent for fiscal

157
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 9: twenty twenty six due to the Trump Administration's changes to

158
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 9: higher education funding. Boston University President Melissa gilliam says the

159
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,800

172
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: lost them both, but won the match because Grigor Dimitrov

173
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: suffered an injury to his pectoral muscle and I had

174
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 1: to retire. Incredibly, It's the fifth consecutive Grand Slam tournament

175
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: where for various reasons that has happened to Demitrov. He

176
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: did not speak afterwards. Sinner on Center COURTD.

177
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 11: It's been sun lucky in the past in a couple

178
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,679

180
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 11: off the court too, and you know seeing him in

181
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 11: this position, it's honestly, you know, if there would be

182
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 11: a chance, you know that he could play, you know,

183
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 11: the next round, you know he would he would deserve center.

184
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: Also dealing with an elbow injuries having MRI today, Nick

185
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 1: made official naming Mike Brown their new coach. Saint in

186
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: the stated that Brown brings a championship pedigree. He has

187
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: won four NBA titles as an assistant. The next season

188
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: ended with that loss at Indiana Tyres. Halliburton then tore's

189
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: achilles in Game seven of the finals, and the Pacers

190
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: made official that Halliburton will not play at all next season.

191
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: The Celtics have not yet said that about their star

192
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum had the same injury. In the playoffs against

193
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: the Knicks at Fenway. Red Sox beeat Colorado nine to three,

194
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 1: Toronto one again eight to four over the White Sox.

195
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: That's nine wins in a row. The Red Hot Blue

196
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: Jays leave the Yankees by three and a half games.

197
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: The Yanks are home tonight to play Seattle. The Mariners

198
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: are led by catcher Cal Rawley thirty five home runs,

199
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: so two more than Aaron Judge. They both have seventy

200
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: four RBIs Metts start a series in Baltimore. The Nationals

201

Speaker 1: are in Saint Louis. The that's just fired their manager

202
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,040

204
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 9: Karen Nathan.

205
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: Coast to Coast on Bloomberg Radio One on Serious Exam

206
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: and around the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the

207
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business app.

208
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 5: This is Bloomberg Daybreak.

209
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 6: Good morning.

210
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 2: I'm Nathan Hager. President Donald Trump is putting a handful

211
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 2: of countries on notice that they've got about three more

212
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: weeks to reach deals or face higher teriff rates around

213
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 2: the level of the April second announcement. But the President

214
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,319
Speaker 2: is suggesting he may still be open to negotiation around

215
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 2: the new August first deadline.

216
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 4: I would say firm, but not one hundred percent firm.

217
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 4: If they call up and they say would like to

218
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 4: do something a different way, We're going to be open

219
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 4: to that.

220
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 2: And that was the President speaking at a White House

221
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 2: dinner last night. For more were joined by Bloomberg's Jill

222
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: Deesis in Hong Kong. So, Jill, we've gotten a chance

223
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: to digest these tariff letters more than a dozen sent

224
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 2: out yesterday, a lot of focus on Japan and South

225
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 2: Korea in particular. How are those nations taking this sort

226
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 2: of reprieve when it comes to the April second tariffs?

227
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 12: Good morning, Yes, good morning, Nathan. I think that's the

228
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 12: right way to think about it, honestly, is that it's

229
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 12: a bit of a reprieve. I mean, this is essentially

230
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 12: a delay and all. But name we were, you know,

231
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 12: the ninety day deadline coming up this week. Now you

232
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 12: not only have August first positioned as the deadline when

233
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 12: tariffs are going to effect, but then you've also got,

234
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 12: as we just heard from Trump himself there saying, you know,

235
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 12: that's not even necessarily one hundred percent. It does seem

236
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 12: like there's room to negotiate when it comes to Japan

237
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 12: in South Korea in particular. I think these have been

238
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 12: really really interesting countries to watch over the last several weeks,

239
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 12: Japan especially because there have been a lot of pretty

240
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 12: major sticking points with that country. A lot of this

241
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 12: does come down to automotive tariffs, so those tariffs on

242
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 12: cars and car parts. That's one thing that Trump has

243
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 12: kind of indicated that he's not willing to really compromise on.

244
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,119
Speaker 12: We did hear from the Japanese Prime Minister sugar Ushiba

245
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 12: earlier today, you know, talking about the fact that you

246
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 12: know that Japan is still really interested in trying to

247
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 12: reach a deal, although you know it has previously avoided

248
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 12: making what he called easy compromises. So you do get

249
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 12: the sense that while Tokyo is very interested in trying

250
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 12: to move something further, it's not necessarily clear what exactly

251
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 12: that is going to look like, although obviously yes, they

252
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 12: do have some time bought. I think, you know, South Korea,

253
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 12: you know, we have seen some optimism there. Certainly it

254
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 12: does seem like Soul is interested in moving forward with something.

255
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 12: But again, I think really the big takeaway here is

256
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 12: that it doesn't really feel like we're under this extreme

257
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 12: immediate time pressure here. Maybe there is some time for

258
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 12: these nations to hash out for their talks with Washington, But.

259
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 2: I guess the question is whether three more weeks is

260
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: enough time, given the fact that we've had more than

261
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 2: three months up to now.

262
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 12: Well, I mean, I would also argue, first of all,

263
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 12: that ninety days is certainly an incredibly ambitious timescale by

264
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 12: which to negotiate any trade deal. Let alone you know,

265
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 12: up to you know, dozens upon dozens of trade deals

266
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 12: with countries all over the world. I think that one

267
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 12: way to think about this, quite frankly, is when you've

268
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 12: got Trump saying that not, you know, not even that

269
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 12: three weeks out that August first deadline is necessarily a

270
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 12: one hundred percent done firm commitment. That does indicate that,

271
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 12: you know, maybe maybe the White House is sitting here

272
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 12: thinking like, yeah, I mean, you know, some of these

273
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 12: things actually do take time. And it would also point

274
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 12: out that even if you do get something that's in

275
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 12: the vein of like a preliminary deal, I look at,

276
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 12: you know, for example, what happened with the United Kingdom

277
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 12: a few weeks ago, that doesn't necessarily mean that that

278
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 12: resolves all of the trade issues. I mean, first of all,

279
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 12: remember that this is a really complicated system that the

280
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 12: washing the White House is really drawn up here, right.

281
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 12: I Mean, you've got what it calls these reciprocal tariffs,

282
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 12: the Liberation Day tariffs. That was the deadline that's now

283
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 12: been pushed off to August first. But then you've also

284
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 12: got all of these sectoral tariffs. In the case of

285
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 12: the United Kingdom, you know, maybe they reached a deal

286
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 12: with the Trump administration on some things, but there's still

287
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 12: this big overhang in the form of those sectoral steel tariffs,

288
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 12: for example, that is still something that needs to be

289
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 12: hashed out. So I would argue that even if you

290
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 12: do have something that they're able to work out over

291
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 12: the next few weeks, you know, as you mentioned, that's

292
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 12: still kind of a tall task. You've still got some

293
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 12: many things in the way of you know, potential additional

294
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 12: sectoral tariffs. Remember, the US Commerce Department is investigating whether

295
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 12: there's more that they I want to implement in those

296
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 12: types of tariffs. I will remind you, are I think

297
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 12: going to be quite a bit harder to challenge in

298
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 12: the United States than say, you know, Trump's executive order

299
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 12: tariffs would be. So, you know, I realized I'm talking

300
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 12: very quickly and I'm saying a lot, but I think

301
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 12: this is all just to say, this is still a

302
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 12: very wonky, you know, very very big process that needs

303
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 12: to unfold here. I wouldn't necessarily count on all of

304
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 12: this being wrapped up within the next three weeks.

305
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 2: In just thirty seconds. What about the issue of the

306
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 2: president wanting to open markets to US goods is that

307
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 2: something that Japan and South Korea are open to.

308
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 12: I mean, I think that again, really, when it comes

309
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 12: to Japan and South Korea, their biggest you know concerns

310
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 12: right now, I would argue, are really about the automotive

311
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 12: side of this. I mean, You've got some of the

312
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 12: world's biggest you know, automotive companies that are based in

313
