Where does Trump’s trade war go next?

Front Burner

About this episode

Top economic officials from the U.S. and China met in Geneva, Switzerland over the weekend. This was the first time that they’ve had face-to-face since the start of their enormous trade war.


The U.S. has currently placed 145 per cent tariffs on China. China has responded with 125 per cent. These levies have essentially stopped business between the world’s two largest economies.


Daniel Desrochers is Politico’s international trade reporter. He’s here for a catch-up on the latest developments of the global trade war.
