U.S. President Donald Trump hails the impact of his tariff regime, saying that their effectiveness has made even Europe consider imposing tariffs. This after French President Emmanuel Macron has revealed that he warned Chinese leaders of potential tariffs during his recent state visit, pressing Beijing to address the EU's sharply expanding trade deficit with China. In an interview with Les Echos published Sunday, Macron said he conveyed a blunt message: China's swelling trade surplus was ‘unsustainable' and was effectively weakening its own markets by sharply reducing imports from Europe. He said he told Chinese officials that, without corrective action from Beijing, the EU may have to adopt tougher steps in the coming months, including tariff measures similar to those implemented by the United States. Watch.

Trump hosts Central Asian leaders at White House for rare earths push—aims to bypass China's 90% control! C5+1 summit with Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan seeks mining deals for EV, AI, defense minerals. Kazakhstan: $3B to China vs. $544M to U.S. Watch the resource race!

Donald Trump hosted leaders of five Central Asian countries at the White House on Thursday as he intensifies his hunt for rare earth metals needed for high-tech devices, including smartphones, electric vehicles and fighter jets. Early last month, Beijing expanded export restrictions over vital rare earth elements and magnets before announcing, after Trump-Xi talks in South Korea last week, that China would delay its new restrictions by one year. Washington is now looking for new ways to circumvent China on critical minerals. China accounts for nearly 70% of the world's rare earth mining and controls roughly 90% of global rare earths processing. Central Asia holds deep reserves of rare earth minerals and produces roughly half the world's uranium, which is critical to nuclear power production. But the region badly needs investment to further develop the resources. Enter, the United States. Watch.
