Trump Threatens UK Drugmakers With 60-Day Deadline to Cut US Prices, 'We'll Use Every Tool We Have'
Taarek Refaat President Donald Trump has issued a stark ultimatum to British pharmaceutical giants, warning they have 60 days to slash the prices of their medicines in the U.S. market or face aggressive action from his administration. 'We will use every tool in our arsenal,' Trump vowed on Saturday, targeting 17 drug companies in an escalating campaign to force them to match the reduced prices they offer in developing nations for the U.S. healthcare system. The move comes as the administration rolls out a wave of new tariffs on dozens of countries, including punitive duties on neighboring Canada, intensifying an already heated global trade climate. British drugmakers AstraZeneca and GSK saw their shares tumble amid investor fears over White House pressure, as Trump seeks to deliver on his pledge to bring down prescription costs for Americans. Analysts warn the policy could have ripple effects across the UK's National Health Service (NHS), which benefits from strong bargaining power with suppliers due to its massive purchasing scale, an advantage that could erode if companies are forced to harmonize prices globally. Trump is pushing for drugmakers to apply a 'most-favored nation' pricing model to Medicaid, the program serving low-income Americans, effectively demanding that the U.S. pay no more than the lowest price offered internationally. 'Cooperation toward global price parity in medicines would be the most effective path for companies, governments, and American patients alike,' Trump said in a statement. But his letter to pharmaceutical executives carried a blunt warning, 'If you refuse, we will use every tool in our arsenal to protect American families from unfair and excessive pricing practices. Americans need lower drug prices today, not tomorrow.' The president's remarks rattled markets, wiping an estimated £16 billion off the European pharmaceutical sector's market value amid concerns that lower U.S. prices could be offset by higher costs elsewhere in the world. Skeptics question whether Trump has the legal authority to impose direct drug price cuts, noting a similar effort during his first term was struck down in court. Back then, Trump accused current pricing models of 'subsidizing socialism abroad' by selling identical medicines, made in the same factories, at cheaper rates overseas, fueling inflated prices at home. Saturday's warning coincided with Trump signing an executive order imposing new tariffs on 68 countries plus the European Union. Canada was hit particularly hard, with duties raised from 25% to 35%, over what the White House called Ottawa's 'failure to cooperate' in halting the flow of illicit drugs, especially fentanyl, into the U.S. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney defended his country's efforts, citing 'historic investments in border security to apprehend drug traffickers and end migrant smuggling.' Switzerland, stunned by tariffs of 39%, far higher than anticipated, said it would continue negotiations with Washington to defuse the trade escalation. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Federal Reserve Governor Kugler Resigns amid Sharp Split over Interest Rates
Taarek Refaat Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler announced her resignation on Friday, creating a key vacancy just as President Donald Trump intensifies his push for steep interest rate cuts, in a rare and highly publicized rift within the U.S. central bank. In a letter addressed to President Trump, Kugler did not specify her reasons for stepping down, noting only that she would return to Georgetown University as a professor this fall. 'It has been a tremendous honor to serve on the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve,' Kugler wrote. 'I am especially proud to have served during a critical time in fulfilling our dual mandate of bringing down inflation while maintaining a strong and resilient labor market.' Kugler's term was originally set to expire in January 2026. Her departure paves the way for Trump to nominate his own candidate to the seven-member Board of Governors. According to CNBC, two of Trump's previous appointees, Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, voted against the Fed's decision on Wednesday to keep its benchmark interest rate unchanged, signaling instead their preference for an immediate rate cut. The Federal Reserve held rates steady in its latest policy meeting, but remarks from Chair Jerome Powell afterward dampened expectations that borrowing costs would begin to fall in September. This triggered frustration from Trump, who has called for swift and deep rate reductions to stimulate the economy. The policy decision passed by a narrow 9–2 vote, an unusually divided outcome for a consensus-driven institution. It marked the first time in more than three decades that two Fed governors dissented from the majority on a key interest rate decision. The President nominates all members of the Fed's Board of Governors, subject to confirmation by the U.S. Senate. Kugler's resignation now gives Trump a critical opportunity to further reshape the central bank at a pivotal moment for U.S. monetary policy. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Formula One: Hamilton calls himself 'useless,' suggests driver change at Ferrari - Omni sports
Lewis Hamilton called himself 'absolutely useless' and suggested Ferrari should change drivers after he qualified 12th for the Hungarian Grand Prix and teammate Charles Leclerc took pole position. It was a new low in a difficult first season with Ferrari for seven-time Formula 1 champion Hamilton, who qualified outside the top 10 for the second race in a row. "I'm useless, absolutely useless," Hamilton told British broadcaster Sky Sports. 'The team have no problem. You've seen the car's on pole. So, they probably need to change driver.' Hamilton had said 'every time, every time' over the radio after he was eliminated in the second part of qualifying. That signified that 'it's me every time,' he clarified to Sky later. Qualifying problems continue Hamilton had earlier seemed set to qualify 13th, and he was only promoted to 12th after the second part of qualifying had finished. That was because Kimi Antonelli's time was struck out after it was noticed the Mercedes rookie had gone outside the track limits. It was the second week running that Hamilton had been frustrated with his qualifying performance. He qualified 18th for the sprint race in Belgium last week after a spin, and 16th for the Grand Prix when one of his times was struck out. Still, Hamilton delivered one of his best drives of the year, cutting through the field on a wet track, and eventually finished seventh. A long first year at Ferrari After a move from Mercedes which stunned F1 last year, Hamilton has yet to finish on the podium in a Grand Prix race with Ferrari, with a best finish of fourth. He did win a sprint race in China in March, but a double disqualification for technical infringements on Hamilton and Leclerc's cars in the Chinese Grand Prix the next day required a time-consuming rethink of Ferrari's race setups. Leclerc is fifth in the standings, only one position ahead of Hamilton, but has five podium finishes in 2005. In Sunday's race, he'll aim to give Ferrari its first F1 win since October. Last week, Hamilton said it was 'crunch time' and revealed he's been holding a series of meetings with Ferrari executives to discuss improvements and ensure he has more of a say in how the team develops its car for the sweeping regulation changes coming in 2026.
