Warren questions timing of Trump diamond gift and tariff exemption

Senator Elizabeth Warren is questioning what she described as a troubling coincidence involving a reported gift to President Trump from Belgium's diamond industry and a subsequent tariff exemption.
Warren says the industry presented Trump with a gold ring containing 321 diamonds and 75 gemstones on June 28, reportedly valued at about $1 million.
She points to a July 24 decision that exempted European diamonds from new U.S. tariffs and is calling for scrutiny of whether the timing raises ethics or influence concerns.
The allegation is political and has not by itself established improper conduct, but it adds another layer of scrutiny around trade-policy decisions and potential conflicts of interest.
