I am curious about this as someone who reveres WEB but who knows much less about his views than many posters here.

I know from some time ago (~early 2000s) that Buffett has expressed concern about the US current account deficit (aka trade deficit as I understand it). I remember an interview I saw (maybe 20 years ago!) in which he stated that the current account deficit was of more concern to him than the fiscal deficit.

Has he recently expressed such concerns? Has he expressed his views on tariffs as a way of addressing the current account deficit?
