Trump 2nd term updates: Trump excludes low-value shipments from looming tariffs

Trump was asked if his policy was to make sure "China will never take Taiwan by force," but the president refused to answer.

He then talked highly about his relationship with China President Xi Jinping and China, but did not mention Taiwan.

"We want them to come in and invest. I see so many things saying that we don't want China in this country, this right. We want them to invest in the United States. That's good," he said.

Trump said his first goal when it comes to the Russia-Ukraine war is to stop the fighting. The second goal, he said, is to not spend any more money and falsely claimed former President Joe Biden spent $350 billion to support Ukraine.

Government resources place the amount of aid appropriated by Congress for Ukraine since the war began in 2022 at $174 billion. The Kiel Institute for the World Economy estimates the U.S. has allocated about $119 billion in direct aid to Ukraine, slightly less than the $138 billion allocated by European nations.

When asked what security guarantees Trump would be willing to provide Ukraine, the president responded, "well, I'm not going to make security guarantees beyond, very much."

"We're going to have Europe do that," he said, arguing that "Europe is the next door neighbor."

Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick talked more about his "gold card" proposal that would give legalization status to applicants who pay $5 million.

Lutnick said he is working on redesigning the EB-5 agreement and that the money would be used to pay off the debt.

"With the 5 million [dollars], you know, that's a path to citizenship," Trump said.
