The UK exception seems weird. Is Trump really playing geopolitical / diplomacy games in this situation?

Can we do better than link to the front page of a news site?

I see in some places it says this includes cargo / shipping. Is that true?

Seems like this is too little too late, cats already out of the bag in the US.

Watched the broadcast live, yes it includes cargo shipments. Something tells me the markets are going to react badly to that one

Wouldn't that make UK the next hotspot? People will travel to and from UK to get to USA. Unless UK restricts travel from the rest of Europe.
