escalated this trade war between the world's 2 biggest economies he tweeted just about half an hour ago that starting on october 1st that $250000000000.00 of goods and products from china currently being taxed at 25 percent will be taxed at 30 percent additionally the remaining $300000000000.00 of goods and products from china that was being taxed from september 1st at 10 percent it will now be taxed at 15 percent it's notable that those announcements were made just after u.s. stock markets closed and on his previous tweets from earlier in the day when trump had said he hereby ordered u.s. businesses to stop doing business in china on that news alone the dow slid more than $600.00 points down and this is coming at a particularly sensitive time in donald trump's presidency over the last 2 weeks the u.s. headlines have been dominated by forecasts of a possible u.s.

recession on the horizon and trim has accused everyone but himself that's the media and his political opponents of talking up this possible recession he says in an attempt to undermine his chances of winning reelection in 2020 when in fact many economists are saying that these trade wars and this is not even taking into account the developments of the last half hour are to blame for this forecasted global recession. and in terms of who president trump is blaming the federal reserve chairman jerome powell is a also been mentioned by president trump. with the president staging quite a remarkable and blistering attack on powell. that's right today has been the day of attention grabbing and unprecedented tweets from donald trump who is of course known for doing that and today he tweeted also who is our bigger enemy jay

powell who's the federal chairman of the u.s. or chairman see the leader of china and he's been targeting jerome powell who it really is he's in a political position as chairman he is not supposed to be partisan he is not influenced by washington at all but trump has really laid the pressure into powell and the board of the federal reserve to lower the interest rates and in fact they did that just last month the 1st time in over a decade citing the strong economic performance in the u.s. well just after that happened that's when we started getting these indicators of a possible recession on the horizon and trampas only late in more blaming power for not having further cut those interest rates merriam thank you very much castro in washington.

prime minister boris johnson some are speculating with breaks it looming he may want to consider taking a tougher position on iran in order to win favor with trump. if course johnson's fertile ground for a no deal really is true and therefore what he's been doing in berlin and paris has really just been made a ruse of sorts where you're going to see the u.k. pivot towards the u.s. they're going to see you case not agree more the u.s. than his european neighbors and they're going to start seeing a much more aggressive. level of posturing from boris johnson who will be in the company of trump and who will almost be taken him long to start behaving in a way that's more u.s. friendly than you friendly iran is just one of an increasing number of global issues whether 7 leaders are likely to have very difficult discussions the french president has already taken the unprecedented step of deciding not to seek a final communique at the end of the summit because he knows there are no words

that will be able to sign up to. a number of other countries have been invited to this year's g. 7 prime minister narendra modi of india will be attending and the growing tension between his country and pakistan over kashmir is bound to be discussed growing trade wars are also leading to fresh rifts the u.s. and china's difficulties could further destabilize the global economy and here in france the new digital services tax which targets big u.s. tech companies like amazon and google has angered president trump who's even threatened to retaliate with higher taxes on french wine. ever since trump took office the issue of climate has been one that's cause divisions that global summits it may well again be 6 vs one with president macro and the canadian prime minister justin trudeau leading calls for the thousands of fires burning in the amazon to be treated as an international crisis james bays al-jazeera the ritz on the
