Summary
<p>Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: <a href="http://bit.ly/3vTiACF">http://bit.ly/3vTiACF</a>.<br /><br />US President Donald Trump warned he would impose “very severe consequences” if Vladimir Putin didn’t agree to a ceasefire agreement later this week, following a call with European leaders ahead of his meeting with the Russian president.<br /><br />Trump also said he hoped to use the Friday meeting to set up a “quick second meeting” with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskiy after allies pressed him to push for such a summit.<br />“There’s a very good chance that we’re going to have a second meeting which will be more productive than the first,” Trump told reporters Wednesday at the Kennedy Center, adding that he was “setting the table for the second meeting."<br /><br />The president’s remarks signaled both that he was looking to downplay expectations for the delivery of a full peace deal from his Anchorage, Alaska summit with Putin, and responding to concerns from his European partners who urged him to prioritize direct Putin-Zelenskiy talks. Skeptics of Trump’s effort have expressed concern that the US president — who has said an eventual deal would include territorial exchanges — could agree to peace terms proposed by Putin that would disadvantage Ukraine.<br /><br />Today's show features:</p> <ul> <li>Bloomberg News National Security Team Leader Nick Wadhams on expectations for Friday’s Alaska Summit between President Trump and Russia’s Vladimir Putin</li> <li>Bloomberg Economics Chief Geoeconomics Analyst Jennifer Welch on how China has been preparing for a trade war with the US for decades</li> <li>Bloomberg Intelligence Global Equity Strategist Gillian Wolff on the Wednesday trade</li> <li>Gary Evans, Chairman and CEO of United States Antimony Corp., and Bloomberg News Economic Statecraft Reporter Joe Deaux, on the company's latest earnings and the critical minerals market</li> </ul><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
