US-China Trade Talks; India, Pakistan Trade Military Strikes

On today's podcast: 1) US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will travel later this week to Switzerland for trade talks with China led by Vice Premier He Lifeng, seeking to de-escalate a tariff standoff that has threatened to hammer both economies. 2) India conducted targeted military strikes against Pakistan, which said it retaliated in expected tit-for-tat blows after a militant attack last month in Kashmir that killed 26 people. 3) Former US President Joe Biden said the Donald Trump administration is appeasing Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin by pressuring Ukraine to give up territory as part of a potential peace deal to end Russia’s invasion.
