Planet Daily News: U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent stated that the Trump administration is open to reaching an agreement on lowering tariffs and denied that market sell-offs led to a change in their approach. Reports suggested that Besent visited Trump in Florida over the weekend and urged him to change his message about tariffs, which Besent denied. He said, "I want to say that negotiations are the result of numerous incoming calls for negotiations." "This has nothing to do with the market." Besent added, "I think you will see some countries with huge trade deficits stepping forward soon." "If they come to the negotiating table with reliable proposals, I believe we can ultimately reach some good agreements." Besent further noted that even if an agreement is reached, some tariffs may remain unchanged. (Jin Shi)
