British Prime Minister Liz Truss has defended her economic plan and says she's willing to make "difficult decisions" to get the economy growing. In her first public comments since her government's announcement of billions in uncosted tax cuts roiled markets and drove the pound to record lows, Truss said Britain was facing a "very, very difficult" economic situation.
