Walmart is preparing to raise prices in the US as soon as this month, as its own costs increase as a result of the new tariffs on imports imposed by President Donald Trump.

And we will look at President Trump saying that India offered to drop all tariffs on US goods, something India swiftly denied.

Total airline revenue is expected to top 1 trillion US dollars for the first time ever this year, according to the International Air Transport Association.

We will be joined throughout the programme by two guests on opposite sides of the world: Shoeb Kagda, an Indonesian journalist and businessman, and Alison Van Diggelen, host of Fresh Dialogues based in Silicon Valley, the US.
