U.S. 00:01 President Donald Trump says he will reach out to Kim Jong Un again, calls the North Korean leader a smart guy. 00:07 Trump has met Kim thrice so far during his first term. 00:10 Trump had a rare diplomatic relationship with Kim, but it did not yield any agreements to end North Korea's nuclear program. 00:19 Storm airwind wreaks havoc across Ireland and the UK. 00:24 Ireland records records its strongest ever wind gusts. 00:28 Rare red weather warnings issued for Scotland and Northern Ireland. 00:31 More than half a million homes have no power, schools have been closed and trains and flights have been cancelled. 00:38 Saudi Arabia's top diplomat is in Syria to meet its new leader. 00:41 It's his first visit to Damascus since Bashar al-Assad was ousted last month. 00:46 Syria wants investments from the Gulf states to rebuild the war-torn country. 00:50 The Saudi foreign minister last visited Damascus in 2023, which ended more than a decade of strained ties between the two countries. 00:58 Israel to miss the Lebanon cease-fire deadline. 01:01 It wants to keep troops in southern Lebanon past this Sunday, which was the withdrawal deadline. 01:07 In November, Israel and the Hezbollah had accepted the ceasefire agreement. 01:11 It was brokered by Joe Biden's administration. 01:14 Israel invaded southern Lebanon in October last year. 01:18 Is Novak Djokovic close to retiring? 01:21 The tennis great hints at the possibility after he was knocked out of the Australian Open. 01:25 Djokovic had to retire from his semi final match due to an injury. 01:29 The 37 year old did not rule out that this could have been his final appearance in Melbourne. 01:36 arrested 538 illegal migrants yesterday. 01:39 Hundreds of them were also deported. 01:42 They were flown back to their home countries in military aircraft. 01:46 Now that number may look impressive to you. 01:48 More than 500 arrests in just one day. 01:51 Yet it's just a drop in the ocean because the US is home to more than 11,000,000 illegal migrants, 11,000,000 at this rate, more than 500 per day. 02:03 It would take 22,000 days to arrest all of them, which is around 60 years. 02:10 And Donald Trump knows this. 02:12 That's why his immigration policy is multi pronged. 02:14 He's attacking this problem from three different sides. 02:17 The 1st is obviously deportations, finding, arresting and sending back illegal migrants. 02:24 But as we mentioned, this is costly and time consuming. 02:27 Plus you can run into trouble. 02:29 Look at what happened in Iraq, which is a city in New Jersey. 02:33 It was run. 02:34 It is run rather by a Democratic mayor. 02:36 It is also a sanctuary city, meaning this is a city that protects illegal migrants from deportation. 02:43 On Thursday, US agents raided a business there, that too without a warrant. 02:49 Even U.S. 02:50 citizens were rounded up in the raid. 02:52 One of them was a military veteran. 02:55 And this will be a problem for Donald Trump. 02:57 He may get cooperation in Republican cities, but Democrats are going to push back, which brings us to his second angle of attack. 03:06 Targeting birthright citizenship. 03:08 That's a big incentive for migrants to enter the US. 03:12 Let me explain this one. 03:13 the US Constitution guarantees citizenship for anyone born in America. 03:19 Anyone. 03:19 The status of their parents does not matter. 03:21 Even if they're illegal migrants, their child born in the United States will be AUS citizen. 03:27 That is the law. 03:29 Donald Trump tried to ban that on Monday, but AUS court has blocked his decision. 03:36 It has called the move blatantly unconstitutional. 03:40 Trump says he will appeal it. 03:42 Mr. 03:42 President, a U.S. 03:43 judge temporarily blocks the birthright citizenship order. 03:47 Do you have any reaction? 03:48 No, obviously we'll appeal it. 03:50 They put it before a certain judge in Seattle, I guess, right? 03:55 And there's no surprises with that judge. 03:59 amending the Constitution here, so the process is quite difficult. 04:04 Trump needs a 2/3 majority in the US Congress. 04:07 After that, he needs 2/3 of all state legislatures to back it. 04:12 As things stand, that's impossible. 04:14 It's not going to happen. 04:15 Which brings us to Trump's third angle of attack, tightening the border. 04:19 Hundreds of U.S. 04:20 soldiers have been deployed to the Mexico border. 04:23 More barriers are also being constructed. 04:25 The idea is to plug any holes to ensure that illegal migrants do not crossover. 04:31 Trump has also tweaked the asylum policy under Joe Biden. 04:35 It was catch and release. 04:37 A migrant could stay in the United States while awaiting court hearings. 04:42 They were not put in immigration centers. 04:45 But under Donald Trump, the policy is remain in Mexico. 04:49 The migrants can still apply for asylum, but they must stay in Mexico during the proceedings. 04:54 And this policy has some critics. 04:56 They say families and kids are forced to live in unsafe conditions. 05:01 Well, that sums up five days of Trump's immigration policy. 05:04 He hit the ground running, but the system is slowing him down. 05:08 The question is, is he on the right track? 05:11 their sovereign decision. 05:13 So Donald Trump is right about the first part. 05:15 the US border and the US immigration system is broken. 05:20 Now we come to the second part. 05:22 How should it be fixed? 05:24 Trump is shutting off legal avenues to seek asylum. 05:27 He's making it long and difficult to enter the US legally. 05:30 So what do migrants do? 05:32 They will try to crossover illegally, which sort of defeats what Trump is trying to do. 05:38 There are huge smuggling and trafficking, trafficking rings near the Mexico border, and they are expecting a bump in business now. 05:45 A better option is to take out the incentives. 05:50 Ask yourself. 05:51 Why do migrants take the the risk? 05:54 Why do they chase US residency? 05:57 Because there are no jobs in their home countries. 05:59 Because there is no safety or future for them. 06:02 Trump is not helping that by threatening tariffs on Mexico or Central America. 06:07 If he imposes tariffs, it is going to be counterproductive. 06:12 So Donald Trump's goal is right, but his approach is flawed. 06:17 pass the Trump Reciprocal Trade Act, meaning if China or any other country is charging us 100% or 200% tariff or tax, then we will charge them 100% or 200% tariff or tax in return. 06:32 In other words, it's an eye for an eye. 06:34 We have one very big power over China, and that's tariffs. 06:40 And they don't want them, and I'd rather not have to use it. 06:45 It is a complete U-turn from 200% tariffs to a trade deal. 06:50 A few weeks ago, a trade war seemed inevitable. 06:53 Trump picked A-Team packed with China Hawks. 06:56 He himself announced plans to raise taxes on Chinese imports. 07:00 But as he completes one week in office, Trump is yet to act on these threats. 07:05 Instead, he's talking about cutting a deal, and he's said to be keen on visiting China soon. 07:11 The US president is making clear overtures and Beijing is responding. 07:19 In terms of foreign trade, we do not pursue a trade surplus. 07:23 We are willing to import more competitive and high quality products and services from abroad to promote balanced trade development. 07:33 That was addressed to Donald Trump. 07:35 The Chinese vice premier spoke about balancing the trade relationship. 07:39 He addressed Trump's biggest concern. 07:41 Trump often says that China is stealing from America, that the current trade relationship benefits China alone. 07:48 So Beijing is now talking about balancing trade ties and by the looks of it, averting a trade war. 07:55 But with Donald Trump, you'd never really know for sure. 07:59 It's like his policy depends on his mood. 08:01 So no fight today, but there's no telling what tomorrow will bring. 08:04 And Beijing understands this. 08:06 Trump is impulsive and sometimes incoherent. 08:11 Even as he talks about a trade deal, he hasn't dialed down his rhetoric. 08:17 We're thinking about that too. 08:18 We're talking about a a tariff of 10% on China based on the fact that they're sending fentanyl to Mexico and Canada. 08:27 How soon on those tariffs? 08:30 Probably February 1st is the date we're looking at for for Mexico and China, we're talking about approximately. 08:39 Approximately 25%. 08:40 It is hard to predict what Donald Trump is going to do next. 08:45 So China only has a narrow window to strike a deal with Washington. 08:48 Because, let's face it, China needs this deal more than the United States. 08:53 the US bought Chinese goods worth over $500 billion. 09:01 Donald Trump S tariffs are meant to target these very exports. 09:05 And China S struggling economy cannot afford additional taxes. 09:09 It cannot lose the US market. 09:12 American companies are already rethinking their presence in China. 09:15 A record number of them want to leave. 09:18 That's the finding of a new survey. 09:20 It was published by the American Chamber of Commerce in China. 09:23 This survey establishes a growing trend of foreign companies wanting to leave China. 09:30 30% of American companies in China are said to be unhappy. 09:33 They're exploring alternatives for the supply of their goods and for their manufacturing facilities. 09:39 Some companies have already moved out. 09:41 Others are working on an exit plan. 09:44 In 2020, just 15% of the companies wanted to shift from China. 09:48 Five years later, those numbers have doubled. 09:52 So what is driving this trend? 09:53 Why do American companies in China want to leave? 09:57 One big reason is the trade tension, the unpredictability around US China ties, especially on the trade front. 10:03 So companies want an exit. 10:05 They don't want the risk. 10:08 But where will they go? 10:10 They're exploring other Asian nations and de risking from China is back in focus. 10:16 This is a term that was mainstream during the pandemic when the world's over dependence on China left many countries without essential supplies. 10:24 So governments and businesses started rethinking their supply chains. 10:29 Instead of leaving China entirely, they moved some of their facilities out, and emerging markets benefited from the shift in the first round. 10:38 Countries like Vietnam and Malaysia, they benefited. 10:42 India, too, was part of this conversation, but New Delhi was slow to capitalize on these opportunities. 10:48 Now India has another chance with another exodus from China underway. 10:53 Indian businesses are looking to make gains, specifically Indian exporters. 10:57 They want to expand their presence in the US. 10:59 They're holding talks with trade organizations in America. 11:02 And which sectors stand to gain from this? 11:05 Textiles, leather, chemicals, electronics, auto parts and toys. 11:10 These sectors have significant potential to grow. 11:14 They can generate more business in the United States, and India must take the 11:18 It invokes various executive powers relating to the ongoing invasion at the southern border. 11:28 Prosecution and possible application of work.
