>> you know, they're all set. >> they need. >> to. >> feel the pain. they want to come at us hard. we're going to come back twice as hard. >> you should be more appreciative because this country has stuck with them. i believe that russia wants to make a deal. >> it is anti-democratic. it is anti-american, and it's appalling. basically, he wants ukraine to cave. >> we are a city of carnival. you don't just cancel that easily. zulu will start to roll at 6:30 a.m., so if you want to have your coffee and your egg biscuit on the parade route, come on out. >> live from london. >> this is. >> cnn newsroom with christina macfarlane. hello. and a very warm welcome to our viewers joining us from the united states and all around the world.
2:02 am
i'm christina macfarlane. it's tuesday, march 4th. it's 10 a.m. here in london, 4 a.m. in washington, where a new round of tariffs announced by donald trump is setting off a wave of retaliation from top u.s. trading partners. president trump slapped canada and mexico with 25% levies starting at midnight last night. tariffs on china have gone from 10% to 20%. here's the president explaining his decision. >> they can't come in and steal our money and steal our jobs and take our factories and take our businesses and expect not to be punished. and they're being punished by tariffs. >> beijing responded with new tariffs on a long list of american goods that followed canada's announcement of its own retaliatory measures. and leaders there say they're prepared to escalate their response if necessary. >> they want to try to annihilate ontario. i will do everything, including cut off their energy with a smile on my
2:03 am
face. they need to feel the pain. they want to come at us hard. we're going to come back twice as hard. >> well, look now how china is handling this response. let's bring in mark stuart. he's live for us in beijing. good to see you. mark. well we expected a strong response mark from china. and they were very swift in retaliating. just walk us through what they've levied. >> right cristina. >> none of this. >> is. >> truly a surprise. >> in fact, i've been. >> talking to. >> a number. >> of sources. >> who are familiar with both the economic. side of things and the diplomatic side of. >> things, and. >> they all said china would soon retaliate. and now here we are, after the united states imposed yet another round of tariffs. as one person pointed out to me, these tariffs really impact where some of president trump's most ardent supporters live. the heartland of america. targeting agriculture. targeting farming. so if we look at where these latest chinese imposed tariffs, we're looking at a 10% tariff.
2:04 am
>> unfortunately, we have lost mark stuart that we will attempt to get his connection back up again. but now for now, let's move on. donald trump is drawing swift reaction after deciding to pause u.s. military aid to ukraine. the white house says the move follows the u.s. president's heated clash with ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy in the oval office on friday. now, officials say mr. trump and his aides want an acknowledgment from president zelenskyy, perhaps even an apology, before moving forward with a rare earth minerals deal or talks about continuing any future aid. and they make clear the pause will remain in place until mr. zelenskyy makes a commitment to seeking peace talks with russia. >> you know. >> he said he thinks the war is going to go on for a long time. uh, and he better not be right about that. it should not be that hard a deal to make. it could be made very fast. now, maybe somebody doesn't want to make a deal. and if somebody
2:05 am
doesn't want to make a deal, i think that person won't be around very long. that person will not be listened to very long, because i believe that russia wants to make a deal. i believe certainly the people of ukraine want to make a deal. >> well, the u.s. vice president, who was involved in the oval office meeting with president zelenskyy, gave his own take. >> he showed a clear unwillingness to engage in the peace process that president trump has said is the policy of the american people and of their president. that's the real breakdown, is i think zelenskyy wasn't yet there. and i think, frankly, now still isn't there. but i think he'll get there eventually. he has to. >> some officials and analysts warn the pause in aid could have a dire effect on ukraine's ability to keep up the fight against russia. hours before it was announced, president zelenskyy said he is counting on u.s. support to end the war and again pressed for security guarantees for his country. >> the lack of security guarantees for ukraine 11 years
2:06 am
ago allowed russia to begin with the occupation of crimea and the war in donbas. later, the absence of security guarantees enabled russia to launch a full scale invasion. and now, due to the lack of clear security guarantees, russia is keeping this war ongoing. the whole world sees this, and the whole world acknowledges it. >> well, cnn's nick paton walsh is joining us now live from kyiv. and, nick, there is no doubt this is a hammer blow for ukraine. i'm sure it's sending shockwaves throughout the country there. what is the reaction you're seeing? >> yeah i mean. >> there is still again disbelief. i think ukrainians frankly, waking up every morning and checking. >> their. >> phones with a sort of drawers here. i mean, we don't have a full clarity as to exactly how immediate this impact has been. we do have. a ukrainian source suggesting to us that we do not see at this point, an impact in the sharing of military intelligence. remember, that is
2:07 am
utterly vital for ukraine on the battlefield to get not even real time, but at times delayed feed of what their enemy is doing, mostly from very high end american intelligence gathering equipment. but depending on who you listen to, we are talking about a fifth or a third of ukraine's aid already stretched. remember, they are not running on the amount they would like. and we've been hearing from officials repeatedly that in the months ahead there could be a crunch in ammunition, a sudden drop in what's incoming. indeed, if this is acted upon immediately now, important to bear in mind that the last time this happened was december 2023, when many republicans close to donald trump held up for about six months aid for ukraine, about $6 billion worth. now that's a $60 billion worth. that was utterly key, because i think if you look back now, around about that time, the tide turned for ukraine on the front lines from them having a not particularly successful counter offensive, yet still having the momentum to
2:08 am
now, we've seen a year plus of russia having the momentum. so this is not just a about sort of theater on the global stage or pressure. there will be an immediate real impact here, particularly with things like patriot missile interceptors, which president zelenskyy has been clear about. they literally count day by day because they're the only way of taking out some of the faster, higher end russian ballistic missiles fired at ukraine, often nightly. and we're now, of course, into a complex question of what exactly is it that zelenskyy has to do to get this aid flowing again? trump has obviously, through his officials, suggested that perhaps a public apology might be necessary. he also says he wants zelenskyy to commit to peace. but the real thing we don't know yet is what exactly is the peace that donald trump is proposing? we don't have a clear proposal from the americans. we just hear, it seems, for the desire for the trump cabinet to seize zelenskyy somehow commit to that. and
2:09 am
zelenskyy, i think, is now in a very complex position because the overt signs practically are that the trump administration is not moving in a friendly direction towards kyiv. so does he give them what they want and publicly apologize and do the things that they say they want him to do? so sign up to the rare earth minerals deal. he said he's willing to do that and give a full commitment to whatever peace is proposed to him. does he do that to then later find that that has an impact on morale on the front lines? and indeed, the trump administration is not acting in ukraine's favor? that's the complexity here. the trump administration perceives peace. it seems, in a very simple binary fashion that it's something they essentially could switch on and bring to ukraine. maybe that is the case. maybe they have an inside track with the kremlin that suggests that is entirely viable. but the fear of ukraine and its european allies is that a rushed or a bad peace feeds into a decade of russia violating ceasefires and diplomacy. they've been persistent on that, and it is
2:10 am
backed up by fact and that that would enable russia to manipulate this peace, manipulate the ukrainian military and gain a larger advantage here. so an existential moment really here for ukraine. the front lines will be massively impacted by a deterioration in aid provide. that is potentially something that could happen in the weeks ahead. and we don't know what it is really that president donald trump wants zelenskyy to do practical, concrete terms to switch it back on. and i think that's what's got many here deeply concerned about how the last two weeks of, frankly, seesawing whiplash, impossible to keep pace with how the i think at times the very volatile notion of negotiation and foreign policy that we've seen from the trump administration is actually playing out in a war here where lives are lost every hour. all right. nick paton walsh from kyiv. thanks so much, nick. well, the u.s. pause on
2:11 am
ukraine's military aid will likely come up tonight when president trump addresses a joint session of congress. already, lawmakers from both sides of the aisle are reacting to his decision. >> this is the exact opposite of peace through strength. instead, what it is, is it's another extortion of president zelenskyy illegally withholding aid in order to get president zelenskyy to agree to a minerals deal, which is back payment for all the aid that president biden had provided. it is anti-democratic. it is anti-american, and it's appalling. and it is. it has to stop. and we need republicans in congress who understand the importance of democracy abroad, who understand how important it is for our own national security, that we don't let china run wild around the world, which is exactly what will happen if we kowtow to russia. they need to stand up and say something to donald trump to get us back on track. >> there's been mixed reaction among republicans on continuing
2:12 am
aid to ukraine. ukraine. some say it's time to try and bring the war to an end. >> we ought to know. we ought to know where all those. >> dollars are going. we ought to know whether it's being spent effectively, and we ought to know whether there's any chance of success. and look, i think the president was right. he said, there's three doors here. either you're going to lose or we're going to be drawn into war, or we need a ceasefire. and the president is right to choose a ceasefire. >> let's go live now to tia mitchell. she's the washington bureau chief for the atlanta journal constitution. thank you so much for your time. i just want to get to the republican reaction to this in just a moment. but first, to the decision itself. i mean, this marks a significant shift in u.s. foreign policy. um, one, you know, previously considered unthinkable in many ways, not least because it plays directly into vladimir putin's hands. we heard our correspondent, nick paton walsh there saying. it is unclear here what the trump administration really want and expect from zelenskyy. where do you see what the trump
2:13 am
administration want? is this to do with the blow up at the oval office on friday, and simply wanting an apology from zelenskyy, or is it something more than that? >> i mean, i think a lot of it is personal that president trump and vice president vance didn't feel like president zelenskyy, you know, came humbly enough. they want an apology. they feel that he embarrassed them in the oval office. so i think a lot of it has to do with that about putting president zelenskyy in his place. but i also think just, um, their values are a little bit different. there's a shift in values in the white house away from kind of feeling like you have to protect every single ally. a shift in values away and feeling that american foreign policy means, you know, getting your hands and fingers into all these conflicts outside of the united states. so it's not just the personal, but i think the personal perhaps
2:14 am
caused the white house to act more aggressively towards ukraine. um, and i do think kind of it's, it kind of goes with the culture of the white house, where you kind of show your strength through, you know, um, uh, letting people know, letting people know that they need to fall in line quickly. so i think it's a mixture of all of that. >> yeah. uh, funding for ukraine had already been approved by congress. um, could this set president trump on a potential collision course with or confrontation with republicans over this, or do you simply expect that they are going to fall in line behind the president? >> yeah. i mean, i think this actually comes down a lot of what the white house is doing that appears to be problematic to a lot of people on a bipartisan basis. but it will be up to congressional republicans whether anything is done about it. and the pattern so far from congressional republicans after,
2:15 am
you know, a little bit over a month of trump being in office, is that they are not willing to publicly stand up to donald trump, that they will perhaps use back channels to get as much as they can get done, to make suggestions, to try to influence the white house and influence domestic and foreign policy. but so far, we've seen it stop there. you know, maybe there are 1 or 2 who are willing to publicly, um, split with the white house. people like mitch mcconnell, not nearly enough to actually, uh, have congress, uh, pass policy stand to limit the, the, the powers or the, um, how far the white house can go. we're just not seeing that right now. there's no evidence that's going to happen right now. >> and all of this is is coming ahead of trump's big primetime speech to congress, of course, happening later today. and it's been a busy 24 hours. we saw trump announce that those
2:16 am
tariffs against canada, mexico would go ahead. they now have. and we've seen canada retaliate already this morning. 25% tariffs on 20 billion worth of u.s. imports. and mexico are expected to retaliate tuesday morning. i mean, public opinion polls here of how trump is handling the economy are currently not great in the u.s. um, obviously, the cost of goods, the high cost of eggs is is has been much talked about. how much is the trump administration here sort of risking a voter backlash over kind of gambling on taking these tariffs forward? >> yeah, i think there is a risk of backlash. i think there's a risk that a lot of, uh, the constituency that helped put republicans in power are if they don't feel like the trump administration is moving, making good on promises. you know, trump promised to bring the cost of of goods immediately after
2:17 am
taking office. and now he's running the risk of raising the price. we'll see though. i think there's also a chance that just like republicans in congress and in line with trump, there's a chance that, you know, the electorate in general could fall and not ultimately be as concerned about his economic policy. um, will know in the coming weeks if these tariffs do lead to inflation. voters are willing to give trump more of a leeway or they're going to start asking for a change. >> yeah. >> tia, we appreciate your comments and apologies for the slight signal delay there with tia in washington. thanks very much. now it's the biggest day of the year in new orleans, and severe weather is threatening to ruin the mardi gras celebration. this is the scene of bourbon street right now, a little after 4 a.m. in the coming hours, the city is expected to get hit with
2:18 am
severe thunderstorms and powerful winds, with gusts topping 50 miles an hour. that's forcing officials to reschedule some of fat tuesday events and drastically alter plans for the day itself. that is, city's mayor. parades will start in the early morning hours, but without the traditional floats or marching bands. officials say those events will now happen this weekend. >> carnival is a very important cultural event for our city, and so if i can accommodate and do it safely, i am going to try. we are a city of carnival. we are known worldwide for that. you don't just cancel that easily. always public safety always will be number one. >> firefighters are making progress in the u.s. state of southern california, where dozens of wildfires broke out over the weekend. the carolina forest fire near myrtle beach, a popular tourist spot, is still
2:19 am
active. it's only 30% contained and has burned more than 2000 acres alone. a doorbell video caught these flames erupting outside a house early sunday. the homeowner did get out safely. there are no reports of injuries or deaths from these fires. dry conditions and lack of rain have created dangerous fire conditions in the southern state, but more humid air is expected in the coming days, which could help firefighters gain the upper hand. meanwhile, a fast moving dust storm swept across parts of the southwestern u.s. and northern mexico on monday, leaving drivers with almost zero visibility. passenger new mexico captured these images of a wall at dusk, moving at breakneck pace. this kind of extreme event is a meteorological terms is called a haboob. didn't know that the storm prompted an emergency alert for drivers to shelter in place, as authorities tried to get the cars off the interstate. now, pope francis recently

2:26 am
more respiratory problems, the pope vomited. so certainly it doesn't appear that his health is improving, that despite the fact he's been here in hospital for the last 19 days suffering from double pneumonia. we are expecting to get some sort of update in the coming hours on the pope's health. but cristina, at this point, it doesn't appear that anybody is willing to say at this point when the pope will be able to leave this hospital and return to vatican city. yeah. >> it is very concerning. we'll, of course, continue to follow developments there. ben wedeman in rome, thank you. >> jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene. i'm begging of you. >> please don't take my man. >> that is, of course, dolly parton's classic jolene, a song

on us. get your real hair back permanently. let's get this done. >> welcome back to cnn newsroom. i'm christina macfarlane. if you're just joining us, here are some of the top stories we're following today. donald trump will address a joint session of congress tonight. his fifth such speech as president trump is expected to defend the actions of his administration during the first 43 days in office. elon musk, a special advisor to the president, will be in attendance. linda mcmahon has been confirmed as trump's secretary of education. the senate voted along party lines to confirm the former ceo of the world wrestling entertainment. she also previously led the small business administration during trump's first term. and these are live pictures of new orleans, where the threat of severe weather could dampen fat tuesday celebrations. the city
2:33 am
is expected to get hit with severe thunderstorms and powerful winds, with gusts topping 50 miles an hour. the two main parades will roll early and with pared down processions. analysts are predicting a weaker economy for north america in light of new tariff war between the u.s., canada and mexico. donald trump announced 25% duties on canadian and mexican imports. the president says the neighboring countries are taking economic advantage of the u.s., especially in certain industries. >> i would just say this to people in canada or mexico, if they're going to build car plants, the people that are doing them are much better off building here because we have the market. we're the market where they sell the most. and so i think it's going to be very exciting, very exciting for the automobile companies. >> we will. >> have a strong. unequivocal and. >> proportional response. >> well, tariffs on china are going up from 10% to 20%. mr.
2:34 am
trump said beijing is not doing enough to stop the flow of fentanyl and illegal drugs to the u.s. china is retaliating with 10 to 15% tariffs on a long list of american goods. and we are watching u.s. markets to see if they can recover from monday's losses due to the tariff announcement. right now, the futures are are lower, as you can see there. the dow, nasdaq, s&p 500 all in the red. and in asia markets are a bit more mixed with the nikkei down just 1%. cnn's mark stuart is live in beijing with china's reaction. good to have you back with us, mark. so just walk us through these retaliatory tariffs, mark. and where china is sort of deliberately targeting the u.s. >> right. cristina. if we look at china's foreign policy, it's very much for tat. you heard us. we're going to hurt you back. and so these new tariffs are not that much of a surprise. i mean, i've talked to a number of
2:35 am
people in recent days from both the economic sphere from the diplomatic sphere who said these were coming. and here's what's interesting. these latest chinese imposed tariffs really impact parts of the united states, where president trump saw a lot of support. the heartland, the middle of america, as well as the midwest and the two big industries there, farming and agriculture. so if we look at the list of where these most recent chinese imposed tariffs on american goods are hit, we're looking at a 15% tariff on items such as chicken, wheat, corn and cotton and then a 10% tariff on products including soybeans, beef, as well as fruits and vegetables. really hitting the farming community. farming communities that again, uh, showed up to support president trump in 2024. so this is not symbolic. these tariffs are actually quite substantial. we're also hearing much
2:36 am
stronger language from chinese officials as part of this retaliation. take a listen to a chinese government spokesperson from earlier today. >> i want to reiterate that the chinese people have never been superstitious or afraid of ghosts, and have never accepted bullying or arrogance. applying pressure, coercion and threats are not the correct way for others to deal with china. >> bullying and arrogance i mean, those are some of the stronger words that we have not heard on this tariff issue in quite some time. as far as how america will respond further, we have heard the president said that there could be another 20%, uh, set of tariffs as part of a retaliatory move. but china in many ways has been preparing for all of this. cristina, in recent years, recent months, we've really seen china expand where it exports, not just to the united states, but also to southeast asia, to latin

america, as well as russia. so the back and forth between these two nations, from a trade perspective, cristina is very much on. >> yeah. we will wait to see how much and how long this escalates. marc stewart live for us in beijing. thanks, mark. canada is also responding with immediate 25% tariffs on u.s. imports, with plans for more in the next few weeks. cnn's paula newton has the story. >> canada says it is ready to retaliate against those tariffs and says that they will be reciprocal and proportional. $155 billion worth. but at issue now is what canada says is an effort at the border to do what the american president wants, and that is to stem the curve of fentanyl, but also migrants. but what's really happening here is donald trump has decided that he has no use for the canadian economy, and the canadian government has gotten that message loud and clear. the government here is deciding that they need to stand up to the
2:38 am
american president. they are warning canadians that this will hurt the canadian economy and likely pull it into a recession. but they say they are ready to make deals with other countries, look for other trading partners. but most of all, try and convince americans. and clearly american consumers, american republican lawmakers, that this is a relationship that should not be broken and that, in fact, americans gain as much as canadians from continuing with this trade relationship. at this point in time, though, canadian officials do not feel that there is any way to get out of at least an initial tariff war happening, and that will happen on tuesday. paula newton, cnn, ottawa. >> the trump administration says it will send its special envoy, steve witkoff, to the middle east in the coming days to try and end the impasse over gaza, where a fragile ceasefire is on the verge of collapsing. the first phase of the three part truce between israel and hamas
2:39 am
officially expired over the weekend on sunday. sunday, israel blocked all humanitarian aid into gaza after hamas rejected a proposal to temporarily extend phase one through ramadan and passover. hamas says israel's aid blockage is cheap blackmail and a war crime. they are demanding israel move to the second phase of the deal, which hasn't been negotiated yet. turning now to germany, where a car ramming killed two people and injured 11 others on monday. this happened in the city of mannheim. authorities have since confirmed the attack was deliberate, that the driver purposefully targeted and struck people at high speed. but police do not believe the suspect, a 40 year old german national, had any political or religious motivations. while the investigation is ongoing, prosecutors say there's concrete evidence that the attacker suffered from psychological illness. thousands of troops and firefighters are fighting japan's biggest wildfire in

2:46 am
given them much more than europe. >> it was after those comments on monday that president trump announced he was halting military aid to ukraine. a white house official says it's a direct result of president zelenskyy's disastrous oval office meeting on friday, and that the pause will remain in place until president trump believes mr. zelenskyy is committed to seeking peace talks with russia. all of this now has the kremlin claiming the u.s. is becoming more closely aligned with russia, something the u.s. house speaker flatly rejected. >> we're not allied with. >> russia and i don't believe any russian propaganda. we have to bring an end to the war. what the president is doing is trying to set the table for that peace agreement to be made, and i'm very grateful that he's doing it. i encourage, as i did over the weekend, president zelenskyy, to come back to the table and accept the deal that was proposed, because that is the solution to get us out of this mess. >> cnn's clare sebastian is following developments. joins me
2:47 am
now with the latest. i mean, despite those comments from the house speaker there, there is little doubt, i think, that this is a win for vladimir putin and for russia. it's going to have an impact not just on the battlefield for ukraine, but on any ongoing negotiations as well. have we had any response yet from the kremlin to this move? >> yeah. >> christina. >> this is probably the. biggest prize that there is for the kremlin. they have long been arguing that u.s. military aid, in particular, prolongs the crisis, criticizing the. >> u.s. for this and. >> finding all methods possible. >> to try to. >> break the western resolve to keep supplying it. you saw that recently, with the russian effort to try to undercut the u.s. mineral deals with ukraine by essentially offering up their own. so look, this morning we heard from dmitry peskov, the kremlin spokesman. he clearly is sort of trying to be reserved, holding fire a little bit, saying we don't really know what's happening yet. we're waiting to see the impact on the front lines, but also very clearly endorsing the u.s. approach. this is his comment. he says if this is true, then this is a decision that could
2:48 am
really push the kyiv regime towards a peace process. >> so essentially saying that. >> donald trump is taking the right approach here, and this is what will bring all parties to the table. i think look, clearly. this is something where the kremlin is getting so much of what they. >> want so. >> quickly that there's almost a sense of disbelief. but clearly this is a major win for the kremlin. >> and i think. >> we have to look really closely. >> to see if they try to exploit any. >> points of weakness. >> as a result of this. >> on the front. >> lines, or even by stepping up the aerial attacks., which have. already, i should note, been. accelerating in. >> recent weeks. and the big question now, claire, i guess, is how far can europe go to filling that gap left by the united states? we know there have been significant discussions, preliminary discussions really about that earlier, uh, or towards the end of last week, over the weekend. um, what reaction have we seen from european officials? so i think this is more evidence to europe.
2:49 am
>> even if it ends up being reversed. frankly, this is more evidence that they need to step up and take responsibility for their own security. we're hearing those comments on that note from ukraine. one of the ukrainian brigades on their telegram feed said this morning. in the future, much will depend on our european allies. they will have to leave the comfort zone of social media support. we cannot stand. >> alone. >> and i think, look, you're getting that from some europeans. the czech prime minister posting on x this morning said the era of relying on others to address fundamental international challenges on our behalf is over. it does also, i think, make the balancing act that some european countries are undertaking a little bit more complicated keir starmer, for example, saying in parliament yesterday, the uk prime minister that he's not going to choose between either side of the atlantic, making the point that he really, truly believes that donald trump is committed to peace. he may be about to take more political heat for that, but i think europe really does have to match this with action now. and we are going to see a major european summit on
2:50 am
thursday. the eu commission president came out this morning and announced new measures to boost europe's defense industry. so the onus really does shift to europe, even as, by the way, ukraine continues to argue this morning correctly, that its own defense industry has increased in size dramatically since the start of the war. >> all right, clare, thank you for now. all right. still to come. serena williams prepares to take another sport by storm. we'll tell you what's next for the tennis. great. >> on twitter. >> that's a. great name. >> we invented a. >> whole. new thing. >> no one could possibly have understood where it was going. >> twitter. >> breaking the bird premieres sunday at ten on. >> cnn. >> what do. >> you got there, larry? >> time machine. >> you're going to go back. >> and see how the pyramids were. >> built or something? >> nope. elon and i want to go on vacation, so i'm going to go back to last week and buy a winning lottery ticket.
