特朗普拒绝伊朗停火提议，中美延长贸易休战两月

DAVID: UP ON THIS WEEKEND, CHINA'S PRESIDENT IS BACK IN BEIJING WITH TWO MORE MEETINGS WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP ON THE BOOKS, WHAT IT MEANS FOR TRADE AND AI. PRES. TRUMP: WE ARE LEADING OVER CHINA BY A LOT. I'M NOT GOING TO STIFLE GROWTH FOR SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE BIGGER THAN THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION. CHRISTINA: BREAKING CONTAINMENT AGAIN. OPENAI SAYS ANOTHER AGENTIC SYSTEM ESCAPE FROM WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN INTERNET-PRE-SANDBOX.

WE HAVE TO GET PEOPLE IN GOVERNMENT THAT CAN UNDERSTAND AND REGULATE THIS TECHNOLOGY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT OTHER OPTION THERE IS. DAVID: PRESIDENT TRUMP REJECTS IRAN'S A SEVEN-DAY CEASE-FIRE PROPOSAL. [INTRO MUSIC] DAVID: BLOOMBERG THIS WEEKEND COMING TO YOU FROM BLOOMBERG'S WORLD HEADQUARTERS IN A RAINY, WINDY NEW YORK CITY. CHRISTINA: QUITE COLD THIS MORNING. I AM CHRISTINA RUFFINI, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26. WELCOME TO OUR VIEWERS AND LISTENERS ACROSS OUR PLATFORMS ON RADIO, TV, STREAMING, BLOOMBERG.COM, THE BLOOMBERG BUSINESS APP.

ALL OF OUR TEAMS MADE IT HERE TODAY. THE NOR'EASTER. I DON’'T KNOW IF IT CAME TO FRUITION. DAVID: EARLY DAYS, EARLY HOURS. I'M SURE WE WILL GET UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE SHOW ON THAT. TO HAVE IT NOT WITH SNOW AND ICE BUT WITH RAIN. WE WILL TALK ABOUT THIS. PRESIDENT XI MADE IT TO THE UNITED STATES AND IS AMAZINGLY BACK IN BEIJING ALREADY. THE AGREEMENT WAS TO HAVE ANOTHER CONVERSATION IT SOUNDS LIKE. CHRISTINA: WE SURVIVED THE DIPLOMATIC STORM IN NEW YORK THIS WEEK.

A SHORT TRIP IN D.C. TO MAKE THE BILATERAL VISIT. WE WILL DIG INTO THAT. LET'S GO TO ALEXIS IN FOR LISA MATEO. ALEXIS: GOOD MORNING. THOUSANDS ARE WITHOUT POWER THIS MORNING AS A POWERFUL NOR'EASTER MAKES ITS WAY UP THE EAST COAST. A STATE OF EMERGENCY HAS BEEN DECLARED FOR NEW YORK CITY, NEW JERSEY, AND LONG ISLAND WHERE WIND GUSTS COULD REACH 70 MILES PER HOUR. HIGH WAVES OF ALREADY FLOODED STREETS INTO INUNDATED SOME HOMES IN SURF CITY, NEW JERSEY.

THE FIRST MAJOR STORM OF THE SEASON HAS ALSO CANCELED DOZENS OF LIGHTS AT AIRPORTS IN NEW YORK, NEW JERSEY, BOSTON, AND SEVERAL MAJOR EVENTS HAVE BEEN CANCELED, INCLUDING THE GLOBAL CITIZEN FESTIVAL IN CENTRAL PARK AND THE OCEAN'S CALLING MUSIC FESTIVAL IN OCEAN CITY, MARYLAND. PRESIDENT TRUMP REPORTEDLY DECLINED IRAN'S PROPOSAL FOR A CEASE-FIRE AND EXPECTS TO RESUME BOMBING IRAN AFTER THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS. THE WALL STREET JOURNAL REPORTS PRESIDENT TRUMP IS SKEPTICAL ABOUT IRAN'S WILLINGNESS TO MEET HIS DEMANDS.

THE TWO COUNTRIES ARE NEGOTIATING MATTERS, INCLUDING IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM, WITH WASHINGTON TELLING TEHRAN THAT TRUMP DOESN'T INTEND TO LIFT THE MARITIME EMBARGO. PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYS THE U.S. AND CHINA MADE "TREMENDOUS STRIDES" THIS WEEK AT THEIR SUMMIT IN WASHINGTON WHILE XI JINPING DESCRIBED THE RELATIONSHIP AS ONE OF "STRATEGIC STABILITY." THE TWO SIDES AGREED TO EXTEND THE TRADE TRUCE BY TWO MONTHS PUSHING THE CURRENT DEAL INTO NEXT YEAR.

PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID HE WOULD MEET WITH PRESIDENT XI AFTER THE MIDTERMS AND AGAIN AT THE G20 IN DECEMBER. THE WHITE HOUSE HAS BLOCKED CNN FROM PORTING AIR FORCE ONE TODAY FOR A TRIP TO TENNESSEE WHERE THE PRESIDENT WILL ATTEND AT THE MARQUEE COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME BETWEEN NUMBER ONE TEXAS AND NUMBER 14 TENNESSEE. CNN WILL BE REPLACED BY THE CONSERVATIVE RAILAMERICA'S VOICE NEWS FOLLOWING A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER THAT TEMPORARILY RESTORED MEDIA CREDENTIALS FOR CNN, MS NOW, AND POLITICO AFTER PRESIDENT TRUMP-VANCE AT THOSE OUTLETS LAST WEEK.

THE WHITE HOUSE OFFERING ASSURANCES THAT THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION WILL NOT BAN U.S. DIESEL EXPORTS, AN IDEA THAT FACED FIERCE OPPOSITION SINCE PRESIDENT TRUMP FIRST SUGGESTED IT THIS WEEK. THE ADMINISTRATION SAYS IT IS LOOKING FOR WAYS TO CUT DIESEL PRICES BECAUSE THEY ARE HITTING RECORD HIGHS. POSSIBLE OPTIONS INCLUDE SUSPENDING TAXES ON THE FUEL AND REMOVING RESTRICTIONS ON SALES. THIS IS BIG NEWS FOR FARMERS AND TRUCKERS IN THIS COUNTRY.

DAVID: LOOKING FOR SHORT-TERM SOLUTIONS APPROACHING THE ELECTIONS WITH PEOPLE FEELING THE PAIN ACUTELY. CHRISTINA: IN A FEW HOURS CHINA'S VICE PRESIDENT IS EXPECTED TO SPEAK AT THE UNITED NATIONS. WE MENTIONED CHINESE PRESIDENT XI JINPING DIDN'T ATTEND THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. HE WENT TO WASHINGTON INSTEAD. DAVID: IT IS GREAT TO SPEAK WITH YOU. THE PRESIDENT GIVING XI JINPING THE STATUE OF AN EAGLE AND A PHOTO ALBUM SUMMARIZING THE TRIP THEY HAD IN WASHINGTON, D.C..

THERE IS THE PROSPECT OF PANDAS AT THE ZOO IN ATLANTA. CHRISTINA: DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I HAD TO COVER THE PANDAS IN WASHINGTON, D.C.? DAVID: WE ALL OF THE PANDAS. WHAT DON'T WE KNOW RIGHT NOW?

WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE ABOUT PANDAS? NO DOUBT. GOING INTO THIS WE HAVE NO EXPECTATIONS FOR THE SO-CALLED STATE DEPARTMENT PARLANCE OF DELIVERABLES. XI JINPING WAS COMING TO WASHINGTON. HE WASN'T BRINGING A BUSINESS DELEGATION. I NEVER THOUGHT HE WOULD BRING A BIG BUSINESS DELEGATION, ESPECIALLY THE CHAIRMAN OF BYD, THE EV MAKER, OR OTHERS. XI JINPING WAS DIPPING HIS TOES INTO THE WATER TO GAUGE THE TEMPERATURE IN WASHINGTON AHEAD OF THOSE MIDTERMS THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

WHAT WILL BE THE INVESTMENT CLIMATE FOR CHINESE INVESTMENT IN THE UNITED STATES NOW AND ALLUDING TO THE FACT THAT THEY BOTH AGREED THEY WOULD PROBABLY NEED A COUPLE MORE TIMES. WE GOT THE NEWS ALREADY THAT THEY WOULD MEET IN TWO MONTHS AT AIPAC IN SOUTHERN CHINA ACROSS THE BORDER FROM HONG KONG AND THEY WILL MEET AT THE G20 IN FLORIDA. THEY HAVE MORE RUNWAY TO TEST THE TEMPERATURE AND THAT'S WHY THERE WASN'T A LOT OF BUSINESS DEALS DONE EVEN THOUGH THE GALA DINNER AT THE WHITE HOUSE A COUPLE OF NIGHTS AGO ESSENTIALLY WAS JUST A BIG COLLECTION OF AMERICA' IS BIG TECH COMPANIES, WHETHER IT WAS ELON MUSK AND MARK ZUCKERBERG AND JENSEN HUANG BUT NO CHINESE BUSINESS LEADERS.

THE READOUTS ARE STARTING TO COME OUT NOW. IT IS SAYING THE RIGHT THINGS ABOUT A NEW ERA OF U.S.-CHINA RELATIONS, ETC., ETC., BUT THEY'RE STARTING TO FLESH OUT IS THERE MEET ON THE BONES OF THIS BOARD OF TRADE? THERE IS A DEAL ANNOUNCED ABOUT CHINA BUYING 10 MILLION METRIC TONS OF COAL FROM THE UNITED STATES NEXT YEAR, AND AGAIN THE FOLLOWING YEAR. THERE ARE AGREEMENTS ON CONTINUING TALK ABOUT AGRICULTURE PRODUCTS, AND AS FAR AS THE LIKE FOR LIKE $30 BILLION WORTH OF NON-SENSITIVE GOODS THAT CAN BE RECEIVING EITHER MOST FAVORED NATION STATUS OR REDUCED TARIFFS ON THINGS LIKE CAR SEATS, TOYS, AND NON-SENSITIVE GOODS FROM CHINA AND FROM THE UNITED STATES GOING TO CHINA, SEAFOOD, TIMBER, AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS.

COMING OUT OF IT THERE WASN'T A LOT FOR MIDWEST FARMERS OR THE LIKE TO REALLY HANG THEIR HAT ON AND SAY THIS WAS A SUCCESSFUL SUMMIT. CHRISTINA: THE PRESIDENT SAID THERE WOULD BE GOOD NEWS FOR FARMERS BUT WE HAVEN'T SEEN THAT COME TO FRUITION YET. YOU MENTIONED THE MIDTERMS WHICH IS INTERESTING TO ME BECAUSE THIS WEEK WITH EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT IRAN PEOPLE WERE OPENLY SAYING THE PRESIDENT AND THE MIDTERMS WERE PLAYING INTO HOW IRAN THINKS THEY CAN PRESSURE THE ADMINISTRATION, THE TIMELINE FOR THE NEGOTIATIONS, HOW THEY'RE TRYING TO USE THAT TO THEIR ADVANTAGE.

IT'S INTERESTING THAT PRESIDENT XI IS WATCHING THAT AS WELL. THOSE TWO CONFLICTS ARE RELATED. WE HAD THE U.S. AMBASSADOR TO CHINA TALKING ABOUT WHAT TRUMP REPORTEDLY ASKED PRESIDENT XI TO HELP WITH IN IRAN.

WE MADE IT CLEAR THAT ANY HELP THEY WOULD GIVE IRAN, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, INTELLIGENCE OR PARTS OR MILITARY EQUIPMENT WAS UNACCEPTABLE. PRESIDENT TRUMP MADE THAT CLEAR AGAIN YESTERDAY. CHRISTINA: WHAT HAS THE LEVEL OF SUPPORT BEEN FOR IRAN? ARE THEY LIKELY TO AGREE TO THIS? WHAT WOULD THEY WANT IN RETURN IF THEY AGREED TO HELP WITH THIS CONFLICT? STEPHEN: THE CHINESE KEEP THEIR CARDS CLOSE TO THEIR CHEST ON THESE KINDS OF DIPLOMATIC OBJECTIVES.

NO DOUBT BEIJING IS OFFERING AT LEAST MORAL SUPPORT. MILITARY SUPPORT IS QUESTIONABLE, BUT YOU MENTIONED THE SATELLITE IMAGERY THAT WERE POSSIBLE USED BY THE IRANIANS ON ATTACKS THAT KILLED AMERICAN SOLDIERS. THAT IS A CONTENTIOUS POINT, NO DOUBT. BEFORE THE WAR THE CHINESE WERE BUYING, YOU KNOW, THE BULK -- I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT FIGURE -- BUT THE BUL
