Incident at Mar-a-Lago and New Security Threats to Trump

US President Donald Trump faces growing security threats. The US Secret Service shot an armed man who illegally breached the security perimeter of Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida. The man was from North Carolina. At the time of the incident, Trump was at the White House in Washington. Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi clarified the circumstances of the intervention at a press conference. The incident fits into a broader trend of rising threats and attacks against American politicians.

At the same time, relations between the USA and China are deteriorating. The US Supreme Court's decision to strike down most of Trump's tariffs strengthened Beijing's position and complicated the already tense trade relations between the two powers. The German Chamber of Commerce is warning of growing risks to doing business in China, which, thanks to Trump's tariff policy, has once again become Germany's most important trading partner.

Analysts say Trump's tariff policy continues to harm both the world and the United States. American exporters had no financial reason to raise prices, so Americans are paying for the tariffs out of their own pockets. Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has repeatedly spoken out against Trump's tariff measures and called on him to treat all countries equally. Lula also warned against a new cold war.

US special envoy Steve Witkoff announced that a meeting between Ukrainian President Zelensky and Putin could take place within three weeks, with talk also of possible participation by Trump himself in such negotiations.
