how they will approach economic relations with the new administration. thomas philipsen is the former acting chair of the council of economic advisers in the trunk, he explains how we would advise trade partners and how to deal. the real issue is essentially, are they willing to forgo a trade with the us and that is very unlikely, particularly on neighbouring countries way with this threat has been imposed on canada and mexico, canada has about 80% of the experts go into the us, mexico is about 65% so that they cannot afford a trade war which is pretty clearly understood essentially. so the question is, how do they deal with the possibility of not that of taking such an economic kid. most likely what will happen is they will for the nine, the reason that threat is out there now is because they are not securely bordered to the us which is one of the president's main

objectives. i predict we will see a lot more pressure on those two countries.- see a lot more pressure on those two countries. away from president trump, _ those two countries. away from president trump, is _ those two countries. away from president trump, is in - those two countries. away from president trump, is in full - president trump, is in full swing in the united states with netflix reporting its results for the october — december quarter. assuming china performed miller's expectation by adding a record 18.19 subscribers to the period. those numbers were helped by a whole batch of new content with two back—to—back nfl games, jack poll versus mike tyson and the return of good game. jonathan is the founder and he gave his reaction to this record. i gave his reaction to this record. , gave his reaction to this record-— record. i will shut some subscribers _ record. i will shut some subscribers added, - record. i will shut some subscribers added, you| subscribers added, you mentioned that there was a most evenhanded in a quarter but it's important to remember the last time they set a record was forced to go inside and had watched tv. the table to best that in 2025 when there was no pandemic going on and when they

have a lot more competition, a of the swimming platform and they had back then, i think it's really, really impressive and exactly what wall street was looking for.— and exactly what wall street was looking for. what do you ut it was looking for. what do you put it out _ was looking for. what do you put it out to? _ was looking for. what do you put it out to? you _ was looking for. what do you j put it out to? you mentioned several things, they have a good sleep of the cut and content but the thing that truly paying for them is the better they had made on sports and online event so you mentioned the tyson — poll fight, they had those two nfl games, they've had some award shows and i think it's an important thing for them to be branching out because it gives people another reason to login and take the international sports content and taken market outside the us which some of the broadcasters you have more difficulty doing. find the broadcasters you have more difficulty doing.— difficulty doing. and the bi . . est difficulty doing. and the biggest reason - difficulty doing. and the biggest reason is - difficulty doing. and the biggest reason is that i difficulty doing. and the l biggest reason is that it's really unique content so, netflix has lots of show but so does every of swimming platform but if you want to watch the nfl, there is only one unifil and w w nfl, there is only one unifil and wwwe, nfl, there is only one unifil and w w we, wrestling this only

one of those so i think now they've lived on a good job at creating a destination and event destination for lots of their current members and lots of people that haven't had reason to assignment. you see things go from strength to strength, other competitors going to make it then? they are continuing to lengthen their lead and the bigger the lead gets, the harder it is for everybody else to catch up because they have the scale and the number of subscribers that gives them a much larger revenue stream against which the fray all the costs of this continent getting more and more expensive especially when you look at the cost of sports rates which is something that all are thinning too so i do think that the other competitors have their work cut out for them and also think we will see a symbiotic relationship where they took all the content back from netflix and start lisa singh that to netflix. some of the competitive edge begetting an ash revenue stream by putting the shops and the platform that is a skill that theyjust cannot compete with. quick

hello and welcome to sportsday with me gavin ramjaun. a thriller in the champions league as barcelona comeback to defeat benfica in the final moments. alex hartley says she has been given "the cold shoulder" by england players at the women's ashes because of comments the former spinner made about the team's fitness. and we're in rome for the launch of this years six nations with ireland starting their bid to defend their back to back titles. hello there, and welcome along to the programme. and one place to start, and that's in the champions league, which has seen a real rollercoaster of a match, between benfica and barcelona. it looked as though barca were heading for defeat on a rainy evening in lisbon.

they were 3—1 down afterjust half an hour, vangelis pavlidis scoring a hat—trick for benfica. but the comeback was on — raphinha pulled one back, before another benfica goal. robert lewandowski scored a second penalty, before eric garcia levelled at 4—4. raphinha's 96th minute winner sealed an incredible 5—4 win for the la liga side and keeps them in with a chance of topping the group phase. it had been liverpool looking the most likely to seal their place in the last 16, as group stage winners, before that result came in. harvey elliott scored the second, in a 2—1win over lille at anfield, for their seventh consecutive win in the competition. mo salah had earlier scored his 50th european goal for liverpool, for the opener. they're still top, but barcelona now still three points behind. elsewhere, atletico madrid moved third in the table — after beating fellow top eight side leverkusen. they had a man sent off early on too — julian alvarez scored twice, including a 90th—minute winner — in the 2—1victory. wins also for atalanta, monaco, bologna, psv and stuttgart. let's hear now though, from the group phase leaders, it's liverpool boss arne slot.
