President Trump announced new trade agreements with the Philippines and Indonesia, imposing a 19% tariff on goods imported from both countries while eliminating tariffs on US exports. The Philippines deal follows a White House meeting with President Marcos Jr., and is Trump's fifth such agreement in three months.
