The Art of the Trump-Xi Trade Deal

Today, President Trump has arrived in South Korea ahead of his meeting with President Xi Jinping at APEC.

The two are set to discuss a possible trade deal which could bring the US and China back from the brink of a global trade war.

Adam is joined by China correspondent Laura Bicker and Americast host Anthony Zurcher, both in South Korea, to discuss TikTok, tariffs and soybeans, as they analyse how the two countries might finalise a deal. Plus, climate editor Justin Rowlatt joins Adam to explore the role climate change is playing in making extreme weather events worse as Hurricane Melissa continues it’s path through the Caribbean.
