>>194189TV News Now @TVNewsNow - Video: 🚨 NEW: Fox News’ @BritHume hails progress on trade talks with China as Scott Bessent gives an upbeat assessment on this week’s visit to the U.S. during interview with @BretBaier
BRET BAIER: “The Treasury Secretary made some news there, first on China, this two-month tariff kind of pause that continues as they continue to negotiate.”
BRIT HUME: “Yes, I think they’ve got a way to go, as he suggested, and there might be some agreement on further lowering of tariffs and thus cooling off the trade conflict that has been underway between the two countries, and I’m sure most people would think that is progress.”
“It looks, it sounds like that’s what’s been worked out. Normally at these things, Bret, as you well know, the agreements are maybe signed or hands shaken on at a summit, but they’re worked out ahead of time, and I think Scott Bessent gave us a pretty good preview of what we might be able to expect from some of that stuff.”
BRET BAIER: “One more thing on the Chinese. I interviewed President Trump in Beijing. I want to play a soundbite from that, and then I want to go back to our late colleague, Charles Krauthammer, and he’s talking about the Chinese back in 2016. Take a listen.”
BAIER (clip, May 15): “As you get ready to head back to Washington, what’s the most significant specific thing you walk away from here for the U.S.?”
TRUMP (clip): “I think the most important thing is relationship. It’s all about relationship. I have a very good relationship with President Xi and with China, and it sounds like something that doesn’t mean anything, but it’s everything.”
Charles Krauthammer (clip, December 2, 2016): “The Chinese are extremely sensitive about these nuances in diplomacy. They’ve been at it for 4,000 years. The Chinese, when they get upset, can do things like take over an island here or there or tear up an agreement or start threatening or do other things that could cause a crisis.”
BRET BAIER: “You know, Charles could always cut through the noise, and he’s right. The Chinese do get upset about the littlest things, but the president says his relationship with President Xi goes a long way ahead of this summit.”
BRIT HUME: “I’m not sure I would set quite as much store by the relationship as the president does, but I think Charles is right. The Chinese are sensitive to these things, and I think the one thing about this summit we can predict with almost certainty is that the pageantry and the outward appearance of it will be quite striking. It will look like two good old friends getting together, and that the relationship with the Chinese and the United States is close. I don’t think it’s very close, but I think it will look that way.”
BRET BAIER: “And the other thing Treasury Secretary Bessent made some news that was kind of blunt was his prediction about Iran.”
BRIT HUME: “Yes, he said two things that really struck me. One was, ‘Iran will say uncle’. He used that phrase, say uncle, and he also said that if there is an agreement with Iran, Iran will stick to it. He didn’t say those things with a lot of qualification. He didn’t put a timestamp on them, but he said those things outright and flatly. I thought that was notable, Bret, and it was a good interview, and I thought that was one of the high watermarks of it.”
