Description:

Last Friday, the Trump Administration announced tariffs on $50 billion worth of Chinese goods, which China returned in kind shortly after, targeting U.S. beef, poultry, tobacco and cars. This follows the Trump Administration’s decision to levy global tariffs on metal imports, a contentious G7 conference and ongoing threats by President Trump to dismantle the North American Free Trade Agreement. We’ll discuss how these tariffs might impact the U.S. economy and U.S.-China relations.

Guests:
