Here’s what happened during Trump’s 13th week in office

President Donald Trump met with foreign leaders from El Salvador and Italy this week, providing negotiations on both trade and immigration issues in the White House.

Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni visited Washington during a period of interruption in the sharp tariffs against the European Union and other countries that could enter into force in June. But both Trump and Meloni expressed optimism that the two countries will secure a deal before that.

“There will be a 100 % commercial deal,” Trump told reporters at the White House on Thursday. “Of course, there will be a commercial deal, and they want to make one, and we will be a commercial deal. I expect it completely, but it will be a fair deal.”

When I was asked if the United States still considered a reliable commercial partner due to the changes related to the customs tariff policy, Meloni said it would not make trips to the White House unless it was. Meloni said her goal in the trip was to invite Trump to meetings on behalf of Italy and Europe to enhance trade negotiation between the two countries.

“I think the best way is that we are simply talking, frankly, about the needs each of us and find ourselves in the middle because this is useful for everyone,” Meloni told reporters on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance met with Meloni on Friday in Rome to continue to discuss economic policies between the two countries.

Here’s what happened this week:

Visit with Bukele

Trump started meeting the week with the President of El Salvador Nayeb Polobled on Monday, as he launched a discussion whether Salvador should restore Kilmar Austro Garcia, residing in Maryland, after being deported there.

On Monday, Trump and Bouquelly administration officials agreed that they had no power to return the Garcia to the United States, although the Trump administration admitted in the court files that he had been deported in a “administrative error”. However, the Trump administration accused Aberigo Garcia of being a member of the MS-13 gang, a dedicated terrorist group.

Meanwhile, in April, the Supreme Court endorsed the minimum court order “The government requires” to facilitate “the release of Abu Garcia from the nursery in El Salvador and to ensure the treatment of his case as if it was not incorrectly sent to El Salvador.”

While Public Prosecutor Bam Bondi told the correspondents on Monday that El Salvador would contact the final shots on whether Aberigo Garcia will return, Boucley said he was “not worth” that El Salvador would do so.

“How can I smuggle a terrorist to the United States? I don’t have the ability to return him to the United States,” Boukley said.

In addition, the Ministry of Justice revealed documents on Wednesday that separated the allegations of domestic violence that the wife of Parisia, Jennifer Vaskuiz, was listed at the front of the court in 2021. Vasquez claimed to deposit that Garcia was overcome and that she had documented from the boredom he left.

Municipality with Harvard

The Trump administration also continued to practice federal funding in higher education institutions.

After Harvard University refused to comply with a series of requests from the Trump administration to reform various practices on the campus, the administration revealed on Monday that it would freeze more than two billion dollars of federal funding for the institution.

The President of Harvard University, Alan M. said. In a statement on Monday, Garber said that the Trump administration included additional requests that have nothing to do with tackling anti -Semitism on the campus. As a result, Garbar said that the Foundation will not bow to these requests, claiming that it is unconstitutional.

The new requests “the direct government organization of” intellectual conditions “at Harvard University, including the views of students, faculty and employees on the campus, eliminating all diversity, shares and integration programs (Dei), offices and initiatives at Harvard University.

“It is clear that the intention is not to work with us to address anti -Semitism in a cooperative and constructive way.” “We have informed the administration through our legal advisor that we will not accept their proposed agreement.”

A drug prescription

Trump also signed an executive on Tuesday seeking to combat the prices of prescribed medicines.

The guidance guides the Ministry of Health and Humanitarian Services to Robert F. Kennedy Junior (HHS) to unify the medical care payments for prescribed medicines, including those used for cancer patients, regardless of where the patient receives treatment. This can reduce prices for patients by up to 60 %, according to the White House Facts newspaper.

It also includes a Medicare payment clause for some of the prescribed price drugs for hospitals against these drugs. The White House said this reaches 35 % less than what the government pays to gain these medications.

Medicines prices have increased dramatically in recent years. Between January 2022 and January 2023, the prices of the prescribed medicines increased by more than 15 % and reached 590 dollars per drug product, according to the Ministry of Health and Humanitarian Services. Of the 4,200 prescription drugs listed on that list, 46 % of the price increases exceeded the inflation rate.
