New Zealand is bracing for a high stakes poker game, preparing for Donald Trump’s tariffs to be introduced. 

The US Business Summit is taking place in Auckland, and Trump is set to be a significant talking point. 

NZ Inc Managing Director Fran O’Sullivan told Ryan Bridge that there’s likely to be an element of negotiation when it comes to the implementation of tariffs.
