The Canadian Premier Mark Carney is in Washington trying to strike a deal with the US President. Carney says Donald Trump is "willing to negotiate" a new trade deal and drop the tariffs following "wide-ranging discussions" at the White House. The presenter Rahul Tandon will look at the other trade deal between the UK and India. Countries have agreed for export whisky, cars and other products to India, and cut taxes on India's clothing and footwear exports.
