to one another but behind the scenes they're busy adding items to their terrorist hit lists. among the two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods the u.s. is planning to tax next are babies car seats and bicycles. as a hearing taking place inside this building in washington american businesses had a chance to express their opinion of their government's f.q. traits with china. we've encouraged them strongly encourage them to negotiate with china not to just you know through a tariff walls going to for tat. some american businesses even fear they'll be affected by both chinese and u.s. tariffs. we have some members that are finding out that the yarns in fabrics that shipped to china are going to be subject to a twenty five percent tariff and then the finished products the shift from china

back united states are going to be subject to twenty five percent or so they're getting taxed twice and that's not good not good also describes the chances of a breakthrough a trade talks set to take place between china and the u.s. from thursday u.s. president donald trump says he doesn't expect much asked for china. we hope to be a result during the trade talks. but as you know we normally don't like to make any comments before the actual negotiations and we hope both sides can sit down quietly and dedicate themselves to achieving a good result on the basis of the parish trust country the whole that you would. but those talks will take place on the same day as the two countries impose a further sixteen billion dollars worth of tariffs on each other hardly a foundation for trust. meanwhile the dollar has dipped after us president donald trump lashed out at the federal reserve's. it's tightening monetary policy trump
