JD Vance says Trump seeks to 'rebalance global trade' while announcing progress on US-India trade talks

JD Vance, the US vice-president, has said in India that the Donald Trump administration is seeking “to rebalance global trade”, and announced that in talks with India’s prime minister Narendra Modi the pair had “officially finalised the terms of reference for the trade negotiation.”

Vance said “we want to partner with people and countries who recognize the historic nature of the moment we’re in, of the need to come together and build something truly new, a system of global trade that is balanced, one that is open, and one that is stable and fair”.

He continued: “America’s partners need not look exactly like America, nor must our governments do everything exactly the same way, but we should have some common goals.”

He said: “Critics have attacked my president, president Trump, for starting a trade war in an effort to bring back the jobs in the past, but nothing could be further from the truth. He seeks to rebalance global trade so that America, with friends like India, can build a future worth having for all of our people together.”

US supreme court to weigh objections to elementary school LGBT storybooks

The supreme court will hear arguments today from parents in Maryland who want to keep their elementary school children out of certain classes when storybooks with LGBT characters are read in the latest case involving the intersection of religion and LGBT rights.

The justices are due to consider an appeal by parents with children in public schools in Montgomery County after lower courts declined to order the local school district to let children opt out when these books are read.

The parents contend that the school board’s policy of prohibiting opt-outs violates the constitution’s first amendment protections for free exercise of religion.

The supreme court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, has steadily expanded the rights of religious people in recent years, sometimes at the expense of other values like LGBT rights. For instance, the court in 2023 ruled that certain businesses have a right under the first amendment’s free speech protections to refuse to provide services for same-sex weddings.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation secularism advocacy group in a filing to the supreme court supporting the school board said:

Parents should not have the constitutional right to micromanage their children’s education to ensure that all secular education materials conform with their personal religious beliefs.

Such a rule would be boundless because “almost any book or idea - however commonplace or innocent - likely contradicts some religious ideals”, the group said.

The supreme court is expected to rule by the end of June. For more on this story, see the New York Times (paywall).
