International Trade Negotiations and Assertive Diplomacy

Former US President Donald Trump said his policies would inspire growth despite adding to the debt as he sought to assuage business leaders who worry his economic plans will fuel inflation. Trump defended his proposals to dramatically increase tariffs on foreign goods, saying the proposals were for the “protection of the companies that we have here and the new companies that will move in.” 

He spoke in a special conversation from the Economic Club of Chicago with Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait.
