10:05 pm
officials are warning people not to pick up the debris. one person said, why was a page from the pilot manual spared but not the six lives of the people on board? any indications as of yet? there are multiple agencies investigating that very question. the federal aviation administration there was a large open field. this happened in a very
10:06 pm
densely populated area. i'm standing next to a gas station. there is a cafe, restaurant, a diner. 19 people were injured in this crash aside from the seven people who were killed and all those 19 injured one of them was a patron at a diner. he called 911 and he said that it wasn't answering because there were so many because there were so many people calling about this same people calling about this same incident, this plane crash. incident, this plane crash. he couldn't get through. finally he was able to speak to somebody and an ambulance came to take that person
10:07 pm
to the hospital. we are told that person is going to be ok. but we don't know exactly the extent of the injuries of the other patients and the fear is that the death toll could rise. in the last few minutes, the white house has confirmed a 25% tariff on all canadian imports to the united states. the rates for energy products will be 10%. we're expecting tariffs to be introduced for china and mexico too. we'll have reaction injust a moment but first this report from mark ashdown.
10:08 pm
furtheractiom and likely tariffs. this from itrailiite house itariiis iite house itariiis iite how a tariff on aiii ichina the on top of to the us on top of existing tariffs. another line coming the 77 the white 77 the white saying from the white house saying that all refers that this all refers to statutory authorities under the é�*fii'flitfifif agttfirtiez umie the “if“ gé find out 'eef§1§§ géfi'“ “wee“? ' that 'eef§1§§ géfi'“ “hit“? ' that means in a moment but what that maans in a moment but meantime what that means in a moment but meantime let's get some in the meantime let's get some context to this story. here eenteet to this stun; here is ashdown. to me in the dictionary. rationale for imposing sweeping sanctions on america's biggest trading partners. canada has promised immediate and forceful action and the frontrunner to become the new prime minister i think president trump
10:09 pm
probably thinks that we in to a bully, we are not going to back down, from the 19705, which gives the president broad powers he cited the surge in undocumented migrants coming the aim is to grow the us economy, protectjobs and raise $1 trillion in tax revenue, but analysts warn that tariffs could hit supply chains and restrict or push up the price of everyday goods for americans.
10:10 pm
it is an interesting tactic, he certainly believes in it. i am sceptical that the way you get countries to sort of cooperate is by poisoning the well with the threat of really crippling, effectively economic sanctions that also hurt american consumers. president trump has also made clear he will target the eu with similar taxes. behind—the—scenes intense lobbying and negotiations continue as nations across the world scramble to assess who will pay the price of a full—scale trade war. marc ashdown, bbc news. let's speak now dmitry grozoubinski, former australian trade negotiator and the man behind the book "why politicians lie about trade." interesting title there. welcome to the programme. i want to begin first off with the news, there was the threat, but confirmation now that those tariffs will be in place for
10:11 pm
canada, all goods apart from energy, that's going to be lowered to try to minimise a rise in costs, and for mexico, the full 25% on all goods as well. your reaction to that news? , ., ., well. your reaction to that news? , . ., ,. , . news? first i want to say that for business _ news? first i want to say that for business this _ news? first i want to say that for business this is _ news? first i want to say that for business this is a - for business this is a nightmare in a couple of ways. both what's about to happen but also the way you can see it is playing out. these things are being announced overnight with no warning. the information you are quoting is coming from government officials, sometimes anonymously briefing journalists. there is nothing out on paper and there is almost no warning. this is be

on americans. he's raised taxes on americans. he's raised taxes on hundreds of billions worth of what americans like to buy. you can see he's using careful language to avoid saying that and give people the impression that he isn't raising taxes but in fact somehow pulling money in fact somehow pulling money in from foreigners. that is not what is happening. it isjust the tip of the iceberg here, really. the tip of the iceberg here, reall . 1, 1, the tip of the iceberg here, reall. ., 1, �*, really. you are saying he's raising prices _ really. you are saying he's raising prices on _ really. you are saying he's raising prices on what - raising prices on what americans like to buy. they also like driving big cars, don't they? this is obviously something he is recognised in terms of keeping the tariffs on energy, minimising that in order to minimise the impact it will have on costs in the us. just how precarious would that be for president trump to raise energy costs for americans? americans are incredibly sensitive to prices at the pump and they do import a lot of
10:14 pm
fuel from canada. i would say that the legislation, the way he is doing this, the way he is going about this, gives him a lot of control to individually roll back tariffs on even individual products if he sees that suddenly americans are noticing it on the shelf, if it is starting to really cause political damage. so one of the reasons these measures could have staying power is he has a lot of leavers to pull if he's starting to feel the pain without rolling them back all of the way. —— leavers to pull. essentially all products that are imported and exported to the united

to targeted ukrainian strikes. our correspondence has more on this. we will come back to that. in the meantime let's just remind you of the news coming to us from the middle east where further hostages have been released, israeli hostages, three israeli hostages, three israeli hostages have been released by gaza and 180 palestinians that were held by israel have also been released.
10:18 pm
now, this was a very bittersweet moment for his simply wasn't possible. square in particular. and i think it's important to point that distinction out accused and found guilty of very serious offences, including murder. many others have not have been found guilty of much lesser offences or not been
10:19 pm
charged at all. but there is a feeling across the board, both in israeli ceasefire deal is working. there was a speaker at the rally here tonight out that more hostages are being released before and they want this ceasefire agreement to continue, and just take us through events in, in gaza as well, yeah, well, of course, in gaza itself, what should be the hostage release last week, those chaotic scenes were completely different today. obviously, red cross negotiators, mediators accept those scenes again.
