Stock markets around the world have declined following Donald Trump's threat to increase tariffs on Chinese goods.

In a tweet, Trump accused China of attempting to renegotiate a deal, and threatened a 25% increase on $200 billion of Chinese goods that have already been hit with a 10% tariff.

He also stated that he would hit a further $325 billion of goods with a 25% tariff.

Cal Thomas and Marion McKeone discussed this and more in our US slot.
