strike in afghanistan. and we'll have the latest on the world cup in russia as portugal's we're now that bags trick. well no one wants to declare it just yet but it's safe to say that china and the u.s. are closer than ever to a trade war beijing and washington have announced aggressive tariffs on billions of dollars worth of goods everything from oil to lobsters al-jazeera and fishes more now from the white house. u.s. president donald trump has been hammering china on trade for months and in a chaotic morning on the white house north lawn where he held a surprise news conference he confirmed he was going to act we need protection everybody take this new thing it made one hundred fifty one billion dollars out of . the work that i told you that challenge you look at your job or you look at
3:09 am
something and we help these countries militarily and yes but what point this is so now the u.s. will impose tariffs an additional tax on goods imported from china the industries to be impacted agriculture aviation automotive and the tech sector the white house says it's not targeting foreigners t.v.'s and computers for no that would mean higher charges higher costs for consumers one trade expert says a u.s. trade battle with china the world's two biggest economies will impact global markets it creates instability uncertainty it reduces particularly investment uncertainty for long term investors private business capital expenses and these types of things donald trump summit in singapore may have strengthened his determination to act for years the u.s. look to china to help bring in industry north korea but convinced he's built up a solid relationship with kim jong un the president perhaps feels he's in a stronger position to act on trade. industries targeted aloose tied to china's
3:10 am
made in china twenty twenty. strategic plan to dominate the emerging high technology industries drive future economic growth but hunt for us and others china has warned when the first set of time of hit on july the sixth it will respond that will spark a second round of titus from the us to move on the leave town and it is consistent in its stance that if the us adopts any unilateral protectionist measures and damages china's interests we will immediately react and take necessary measures to firmly safeguard our legitimate rights and interests there are those in this town and those in this white house who privately believe that a long term trade war with china would be bad for the u.s. economy and for u.s. consumers but donald trump is the living on a campaign promise and he believes a trade war would be good for the u.s. and it's a war he can when alan fischer al-jazeera at the white house well let's bring in
3:11 am
robert scotties from the economic policy institute he joins us live now from gaithersburg in maryland via skype robert so u.s. trade policy under donald trump seems to be extremely unpredictable but we shouldn't be surprised by these tariffs on china we knew they were coming didn't we absolutely this is something that trump campaigned on the promise that he was going to get tough on china in particular during his election campaign and he has been moving forward in fits and starts it's not entirely a coherent program but he is certainly taking strong action and that was sorely needed. and trump is accusing beijing of intellectual copyright theft just talk us through what that means and what it has to do with trade. well china has been stealing secrets from the u.s. and other multinational businesses they engage in piracy they require firms to to share technology with joint venture partners and then they throw out the u.s.
3:12 am
firms and keep the technology they use state owned enterprises including those controlled by the chinese army to take over targeted industries so all of these are forms of unfair trade which are outlawed under international trade rules and president trump is just enforcing our rights under previously agreed trade agreements and china says it's already retaliated with tear of some thirty four billion dollars of u.s. goods so where does this all leave those trade talks between both sides that seem to be going so well but i think that we have a lot more ground to cover in these trade debates but i think it's important to remember that china has much more to lose in this kind of. a trade tussle than the united states they export much more to us than we export to them. and they're much more dependent on trade overall as a share of the overall economy so china is much much more vulnerable we have all
3:13 am
the of leverage in this trade they don't just looking at the broader picture robot how would an escalating trade war between china and the u.s. impact the global economy the global markets what does it mean for the rest of us. well i think it's going to be disruption but i don't think it's going to have an enormous impact for example the tariffs on fifty billion dollars worth of goods that trump announced amount to an infinitesimally small share of the economy about six one hundred to one percent of g.d.p. if you add it all up and in fact a federal reserve chairman powell said yesterday that there is no evidence to date all that the true tariffs announced today have any apparent impact on the economic numbers that he's saying so this is going to be a really small change in the overall scope of the economy for the united states or china it could be a much bigger impact many people will say look you know the u.s. needs china support in a number of areas like the north korea for example said could these tariffs have
3:14 am
a wind up political impact on both sides well for years we have let china get away with many kinds of unfair track break trade practices they build up a. trade surplus with the u.s. of almost four hundred billion dollars it's cost us three and a half million jobs most of them good jobs in manufacturing we've done that in part to earn the cooperation of china on issues like the problems with north korea but i think china has its own incentives for solving the problems it has no more interest in having a nuclear armed in the north korea that's can unpredictably trigger a war than a moment then we do so i think we have to separate those two issues robert scott thank you for talking thank you for talking to al-jazeera thank you now us judges sent donald trump's former campaign manager to jail prosecutors say pull manifold tried to interface with witnesses connected to the investigation of russian
3:15 am
meddling in the twenty six thousand election in a tweet president trump coley decision tough on fat particle he reports in washington. oh man a ford began his day a free man and ended it in handcuffs by. the judge had told him he could stay under house arrest until his trial but then the government accused metaphor of trying to tamper with two witnesses and alter their testimony the judge said metaphor it was treating his trial like a marketing campaign abused her trust undermined the credibility of the court so she said he'll stay in a jail cell until his trial here in september man of course expression didn't change when he heard the news he simply stood up and started to walk towards the door turning around just once to wave goodbye to his family before the verdict u.s. president donald trump once again tried to distance himself he worked for me what for forty nine days or something a very short period of time that is not true manna for actually worked for the charm campaign for almost five months at one point he ran it manna for it was

clearly going to fight the charges against him now he'll be under increased pressure to cooperate with investigators to avoid potentially spending the rest of his life in jail he is a man who has lived a life of luxury for decades now discovering the harsh reality of life behind bars . al-jazeera washington and the u.s. president's trying to distance himself from attorney michael cohen who is facing an f.b.i. investigation into his business dealings donald trump says cohen isn't his lawyer anymore i mean hasn't spoken to him in a long time prosecutors in new york say they're looking at materials seized in a raid on cohen's home back in april he's being investigated for possible fraud and campaign law violations in connection to payments made to the adult film actress stormy daniels. the leaders of france and italy have met in paris to end a diplomatic dispute over europe's migration crisis the french president emmanuel macron criticized the italian government for refusing to accept
3:17 am
a rescue ship carrying more than six hundred migrants from libya well the ship is now on route to spain but mike ross criticism sparked a war of words with italian leadership accuse paris of hypocrisy that in baba reports. a week after setting off hundreds of refugees and migrants are still at sea on their way to the spanish port of bill in syria. this will be their sixth day on port and the seventh since they pulled the rabbit being loose in libya on. their ordeal should soon be over but when italy turned away the charity boat that rescued them the querrey assess the route that erupted almost led to emmanuel michel is meeting with new italian prime minister giuseppe conti being cancelled after mutual accusations of not doing enough a phone call from president michael saved the day now they're promising to work hand in hand to find solutions. if you don't get local use in the case of the aquarius the risks start when the boat leaves libya this is at the heart of the
3:18 am
initiative we want to take with our colleagues preventing the man and woman boarding ships and making dangerous journeys before being rescued by n.g.o.s the risk starts right from the beginning not just when the boat arrives in european waters we must have an organization with countries of transit to avoid humanitarian situations that are on bearable. we have always said and would like to reiterate today the dublin rules have to change italy is firmly opposed to the current reforms to the dublin system and we are currently preparing our own proposals which we will share with our french friends and other european partners to develop them at the european level under the austrian presidency of the council and it's those rules which leaders will be reexamining at the european union summit in two weeks' time the dublin regulation imposed that the first count three down well comes out that receives migrants and that's ireland seekers he's in charge of processing at their claim which brought an enormous burden on countries like italy they mouth our
3:19 am
hand gary that is countries on the nod i'm sure are of the media they're in and see these two leaders we're never going to get rid of all of the tensions that have built up between france and italy over the issue of migration but what we've heard from them does remind the whole continent that the solution to the problem lies only europe wide basis the number of people arriving in italy by sea has dropped this year but with attitudes hardening in many countries those who do make it to europe may find they're even less welcome. al-jazeera paris a leading charity says child refugees are being abused detained on illegally sent back to italy by french border guards the report by oxfam says.
