47:56Now PlayingThe Trump administration is weighing a dramatic tariff reduction during weekend talks with China to de-escalate tensions and temper the economic pain both are already starting to feel. People familiar with preparations for the talks, which are due to begin in Geneva on Saturday led by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, say the US side has set a target of reducing tariffs below 60% as a first step that they feel China may be prepared to match. Progress in two days of scheduled discussions could see those cuts being implemented as soon as next week, they said. Meanwhile Pope Leo XIV, the first ever pope from the US, celebrated his first Mass as pontiff on Friday. Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost is seen as a possible bridge between the moderate and hardline sides of a divided Church.
