Watch: Ex-VP Mike Pence says he has 'great concerns' over Trump's tariffs

Former Vice-President Mike Pence has expressed concerns over the tariffs imposed by former President Donald Trump. In an interview with BBC Newsnight, Pence stated that he would like to see negotiations to lower the levies. Pence acknowledged that the tariffs were aimed at addressing unfair trade practices, but he believes that they have had unintended consequences, particularly for American consumers and businesses. He emphasized the importance of finding a balanced approach that protects American interests while also maintaining strong relationships with international partners. The former vice-president's comments come at a time when the Biden administration is reviewing the Trump-era trade policies and considering potential adjustments. Pence's stance on the tariffs, which were a significant part of Trump's economic agenda, suggests a potential division within the Republican party on this issue.
