U.S. President Donald Trump's approval rating has reached the lowest for any newly elected president at 100 days mainly due to the rollout of his aggressive tariff plan.
Why is he taking the risk, and what does that mean for South Korea?
Let's turn to Professor Breg Buchak.
Welcome back.
1. It's been less than 100 days since Trump returned to the Oval Office, and his 41% approval rating is the lowest for any newly elected U.S. leader. Why is he rushing through his tariff policies this time?
2. There's this 90-day tariff pause for now.
3. Seoul and Washington are looking to draw up a July package, but to realize a package that works in favor of South Korea, what would be crucial for South Korea to appeal to the U.S. in negotiations in the coming weeks and months?
4. Based on consultations held last week will South Korea's LNG imports be enough leverage for South Korea to find a breakthrough in Trump's tariff policies?
5. South Korea made a counterproposal to establish a consultative body with other Asian countries. How feasible is this idea, realistically speaking?
Thanks so much for sharing your insight with us this morning.
