Trump prepares for 'productive' talks with Xi on trade war

23 Sept 05:24 Key points summarised by AI

U.S. President Donald Trump expressed hope for "productive talks" with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the trade war but explicitly stated he made no promises about delaying new tariffs.
The ongoing trade feud between the U.S. and China is a major concern at the G20 summit, casting a shadow on global growth and prompting calls from other leaders to address rising protectionism.
Beyond tariffs, the discussions are expected to delve into issues like intellectual property rights and the U.S.'s concerns over Chinese telecoms giant Huawei.
Trump also engaged in bilateral trade discussions with other nations, while G20 leaders emphasized the importance of reforming the World Trade Organization.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
