1. Plan to lift AI chip restrictions -The Trump administration plans to lift the Biden-era AI chip restrictions, which were originally scheduled to take effect on May 15, but have not yet been finalized.

Will consider requests for tariff exemptions for specific industries -US President Trump said he would consider requests for tariff exemptions for specific industries, but he expressed a preference for maintaining a broader, less complex tariff policy. Trump said he was unaware of the issue of tariff exemptions for baby products. 3. Reach an agreement with "a certain big country" -"Tomorrow at 10 a.m., we will hold a large press conference in the Oval Office to discuss a major trade agreement with representatives of a well-respected big country. This will be the first of many agreements!" Trump wrote. Media reports said that Trump is expected to announce a trade agreement with the UK on the 8th local time. 4. Willing to help resolve the India-Pakistan conflict -After India and Pakistan fought a big fight, Trump offered to help resolve the India-Pakistan conflict and hoped that India and Pakistan would stop fighting. Trump said: "It's terrible. My position is that I get along well with both countries and I want to see them solve the problem. I want to see them stop, and I hope they stop now." 5.

Criticized by Biden -Former US President Biden accepted an exclusive interview with the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and fired at his successor Trump, criticizing Trump's "cheap" treatment of US allies and "appeasement" of Russia on the Russia-Ukraine issue, while expressing concerns about the future of the transatlantic alliance. 7. Refuted by Powell -At a press conference, when asked about Trump's request, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell refuted the president, saying that such pressure "really won't affect our work or what we're going to do."
