Hello and welcome to Trump's Tariffs Explained with me, Ben Brown here in London.
And me, Sumi Somaskanda here in Washington.
We're going to be asking and hopefully answering some of the key questions about the Trump tariff roller coaster of the last few days.
Yeah, why, for example, did he impose them with such flourish last week,
only to then put them on pause just a few hours after they actually came into effect?
Was it a retreat forced on President Trump by the turmoil that we've seen, especially in the crucial bond markets,
or was it his strategy all along as the White House has been suggesting,
successfully driving dozens of countries to the negotiating table?
And there may have been a rollback on American tariffs for the rest of the world.
But why has Donald Trump doubled down on China with even steeper tariffs?
