Quick Glance: Joe Biden Calls for Significant Increase in Tariffs on Chinese Steel

US President Joe Biden is pushing for an increase in tariffs on Chinese steel and aluminium to strengthen union support in the swing state of Pennsylvania.

During a meeting with United Steelworkers union members in Pittsburgh, Biden calls on trade representative Katherine Tai to raise the tariffs from the current average of 7.5 percent.

The main focus of the measures is to combat China's new export surge and the ongoing price pressure that makes it difficult for American steel companies to compete.

The Biden administration's decision to increase tariffs is expected to impact recent efforts by Washington and Beijing to stabilize relations.

Quick Glance: Studio Ghibli Receives First-Ever Honorary Palme d’Or in Cannes

The acclaimed Japanese animation house Studio Ghibli, known for films like Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, and Oscar-winner The Boy and the Beast, is set to be honored with an honorary Palme d’Or at Cannes as the first group to receive this prestigious award.

Typically awarded to individuals, past recipients include Tom Cruise, Michael Douglas, and Harrison Ford, with Star Wars creator George Lucas also being recognized at the 77th edition of the festival.

Studio Ghibli is synonymous with veteran directors Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, who have created iconic animated features under the studio's banner over the past four decades.

Filmmaker Miyazaki has garnered multiple Oscars, and the studio has produced over 20 films, including masterpieces like Princess Mononoke and Howl's Moving Castle. The group acknowledgment highlights Studio Ghibli's significant impact in the film industry.
