a system is not working what would you be advising them to concentrate on. for us it's just a you cups a conclusion at the moment very sketchy and it's not clear whether what will it will mean in reality. the only thing you don't be any states that appear to have agreed upon. the activity portion of responsibility to. protection of people i'd better do it as of europe regardless of how vulnerable they are. or what horrors they are excavating it's it's very disappointing to see that the e.u. leaders are not able to agree on a solution and a quick tribute to protection of our little people such as a refugee i'm going to need to focus on border closer to god lots of people to state this also no solution seem to be have to be found to either is the risk of people drowning at steep it is stronger to eat so you should and seems to

we are doing. i cannot emphasize enough that regret with which we take these counter measures we are acting very much in store oh not in anger but the us terrorists leave canada no choice but to defend our industries our workers and our communities and i can assure you that we will maintain the firm resolve to do so. and general motors is warning that trade tariffs the u.s. is considering imposing on imported vehicles could lead to the isolation of u.s. businesses from the global markets incumbents filed with the u.s. commerce department the u.s. automakers said the tariffs could force the company to downsize would using its presence in the american markets and jobs will be at risk the company which makes some vehicles destined for the u.s. markets in mexico canada also warned that tariffs could high prices reduce sales let's talk more about this with robert he sculpts

a senior economist and director of trade on the fracturing of the economic policy institute who joins me now thanks very much for coming on to al-jazeera general motors is saying look this is going to make vehicles more expensive it's going to risk possibly people lowering wages possibly even people losing their jobs this really seems to be backfiring all on the president who is now expecting i'm i suppose this kind of reaction. well i think it's true that the tariffs are going to be costly. and there may be particular costly for general motors on the other hand they also may lead to an increase paradoxically in auto production in the united states g.m. has proven itself unable to make automobiles in particular they do fine making trucks and s.u.v.s but they can't make automobiles that's what they're talking about putting in tariffs on but we've seen in the past when the u.s.

imposes trade restraints we did this and nine hundred eighty s. on all imported autos russia those coming from japan those those other producers simply shifted production to the united states that would be the sensible response so us as a whole may gain even if general motors loses as a result of these tariffs but toyota is also adding that voice to this investigation that congress is looking into saying that they also threats and as far as tolerance is concerned u.s. jobs fetching and exports threatening economic prosperity donald trump has said just just very recently that the investigation has three a formal weeks to run is a real challenge say could do a huge sound this. i certainly think there's a chance the tariffs on steel and aluminum the case was much stronger there that was clearly a national security threat i think that's the basis of the investigation i think

it's very tough to argue that there's a national security threat on autos the costs are going to be higher consumers will feel it more directly so i think he could decide not to go in that direction i think the broader picture though is that taken together all of these trade actions that trump is is. pursuing are not doing anything to reduce the u.s. overall trade deficit a deficit been growing for the last two or three years and everything trump has done the sum total of his economic policies is actually going to make it worse not better and that's the core problem and just thinking about the image i suppose i mean g.m. is an iconic u.s. brand holly davidson of an incredibly high con that u.s. bound when it comes to their reaction to the sorts of things that the white house is suggesting that has to be probably either thought second thoughts because of that because they don't want to be at loggerheads with shakes trini impressive american brands well i think that's right and certainly the workers employed

by those companies are going to be concerned as well i think if we were going to be serious about addressing this trade problems which are which are large and legitimate i think the thing that we need to do is to recognize that the u.s. dollar is overvalued and there are policies that we can pursue to reduce the value of the dollar against not just china but all of the countries that have large global trade surpluses including japan and the european union we've done this before in one thousand nine hundred five president reagan lower the dollar and our trade deficit went away we could do that again very great feel thoughts on this iraq based cult thanks for joining us and i'll just say. as lots more still to come this hour not welcome here backlash in south korea after sudden inflexibly gammon is seeking safety on a popular holiday island a front runner in mexico's presidential election pledges to reverse decades of decline in rural areas is it is that easier said than done and then supporters

aging population of small scale farmers struggling to compete with industrial scale operations in the world the mexico and the us for all that i know i produce grains but not money he says. that many communities young have either left or turned to more lucrative ventures. they sell drugs they kidnap they live well for a few days and then they get killed just next to my house or there was kind of a kidnapping. this man promises to change that presidential front runner andres manuel lopez obrador has made the neglected mix can country side a campaign priority. he said here we're focused government support from large industrial produces to smaller farms seek help them get quality seeds technological know how better access to loans and to guaranteed minimum price for their crops it's all part of an ambitious plan for mexico to produce its own food.

they're buying everything abroad that we could grow in mexico that's going to start . in the past there were incredibly strong ties between mexicans and the land this is the birthplace of corn itself but it's a different country now daming with the urban population and the global market the question is if it's really possible or even worth the cost of resuscitating this sector. even lopez obrador team says the wholesale change he promises will be impossible one of been a straight. and agricultural economists who in general support the plan have questioned of price guarantees for individual farmers and in particular in forcing home grown food and carry a steep cost for authorities and consumers is so important when setting the view

that in consequence it's going to be very expensive for the government and mexican taxpayers that. promise themselves seem split between those two banking on a ruling party which has given them just enough to survive and those like a year or more voting in the hope of change john homan how does it make to account . if your peers economy has grown as a faster rate than any other african country in the past ten years but foreign investors and local businesses complain that a shortage of foreign currencies are a us dollar holding back the private sector mohamed of the reports from this. this is the great if the opener missiles dumb on the blue nile nearing completion the project has been fully funded by the government and the people of ethiopia it's a fact that many here are proud of yet them vicious infrastructure projects like the dam have put pressure on the country's foreign reserves which are already short

supply for in kind of the shortages the worst that i've witnessed in my entire life and it's all time lows that we have heard of and seen and this is because look at they kannan me look at the construction sector and you look at the manufacturing sector that imports everything and the government projects all those that have been planned and viciously have slowed down. another cause for the crisis is that ethiopia sells fall less than what it buys the international monetary fund says that if he appeals for the results of the end of the two thousand and sixteen two thousand and seventeen fiscally stood at three point two billion less than what it spends on imports in two months in recent years it has encouraged must've chinese investment in industrial parks to create employment and increase exports the government does direct that one small piece of foreign currency to import as one not insect just considered
