thank you because that one little bit of i have serious problems on a personal level and i was unable to live there but i'm going to. want to know their story informally bridge therefore you can bring more of the information for more it brings. china's shore way soused to challenge a u.s. security law that limits the takes companies access to the american market for telecom equipment. and struggling to pay for school repairs the german town caught in the crossfire of an international route over arms exports this shipyard was meant to bring jobs and much needed cash. alone welcome to do business i want to get billing good to have you with us and chinese take john your

way is suing the united states for banning the use of the company's equipment to away is challenging a u.s. law that labels the company as a security risk and it's a law that also would limit its access to the american market for telecom equipment now this comes as the trade negotiations between the u.s. and china are at a critical point for years while way has sought to reassure the world of two things the last original that it is not under the control of the chinese government and that it doesn't spy on consumers not a shift in tone from defense to accusation. the u.s. government. it's right it has heritage our servers and just storing our you merril's and hold allegations of american government interference and theft of corporate secrets while ways message to the united states

we can play the blame game two hours before the announcement the backdrop to what's becoming an ever escalating dispute while waves chief financial officer among you leaving her house in canada for an appearance in course she's been detained in the country since december accused of helping her company violates u.s. sanctions on iran she claims the arrest violated her rights and is politically motivated. while ways decision to sue the american government to a ready high cost conflict the u.s. effort to get allies to shun the firm threatens to bar the company from major markets and puts billions of dollars of investment in super high speed five g. networks out of risk it also adds tension to an already complicated trade relationship between the world's top two economies so what's the financial world

say about all this our financial correspondent is in frankfurt only sure way half a point here perhaps. you know people in the financial world are worried also about secrets coming out in manipulation of this very important five g. network perhaps through companies that are not necessarily dedicated to democratic traditions but i think the company does have a point it sees it as its last resort in claiming its rights to gain market access and it claims the u.s. has no evidence to support their claims and that the u.s. is hurting the company and basically with this exclusion or this aim of exclusion from government from contracts in the united states issuing a corporate death warrant and so just justice action a court case is a viable option i'll be and it comes at a critical time as we just mentioned in the report the when the head couldn't come

at a worse time one can only imagine the reaction in the white house on this it certainly won't get boring what he bought and frank thank you so much. now then i don't know if you're aware of that but the online retail is booming generating a surge of passes for delivery companies and to cope deutsche post d.h.l. group has ploughed millions into hiring automation and expanding its logistics infrastructure with more to come now with annual sales of sixty billion euros stodgy post d.h.l. is now the world's second largest logistics company lagging behind america's united process this u.p.s. which now post sales of sixty three billion you as a competitor fed ex is here with fifty eight billion euros in sales d.h. has operations in two hundred twenty countries and it employs over huff a million people worldwide all its divisions are growing but the surge in online

retail and e-commerce means it's a possibility unit is growing fast. having said that a few months ago dogshit post issued a profit warning citing surging costs in its passive delivery service which even strong growth in online orders could compensate and for more i'm joined now by the c.e.o. of dodge opposed the age group frank apple good to have you with us so i was just mentioning that profit warning just a few months ago how do you hope to get back into the black and provide customer satisfaction. first of all we have very much still in the black you know the profit warning was that be conned grow as much as we hope for we have to live out in the remainder of the year our adjusted gardens and we are satisfied with three outcome we are as you said growing air in all parts e-commerce is a significant part of it but of course we want to increase even the satisfaction of

our customers globally that's the reason why we continue to invest in our service quality we perceive ourselves as a premium provider in whatever we do and we have invested last year and we will continue to invest more even this year we just announced that we engage more people employ more people in germany we added actually globally more than twenty five thousand people last year already to our global workforce ok so you invest a loss also in manpower at the same time as a logistics company operating glow well why you cannot be in the unit to what's going on on a global scale the o.e.c.d. has just lowered its global growth forecast citing trade issues and so forth that means probably less or does less or just means less business for you right. yes so at the moment we definitely have more on center uncertainty than usually but still we believe that we will see a global g.d.p. growth for free to a free and a hospice and we measure also the dia should that apparent better meter you know

how the economy does and we definitely expect that we see a continuation and certainly it's not good because consumers potentially delayed purchase of products or goods or investments and that is not healthy but we have seen in the last years and i'm now in my job eleven years i have seen so many make a crisis would show and are not as big as people said at the beginning so we should leave a little bit more relax and focus on what we can do as a company so how relaxed are you about the upcoming breck's it you haven't seen that in the last eleven years. you know that is definitely not good for europe it is not good for the u.k. it's a lot of some odd idea nobody would benefit from that nobody is better off by going on his own particularly europe where we have to work together with his superpowers in china or in the u.s. so it's really not good for both parts what will happen we don't know i can say our customers we are well prepared for any situation even for a hard. but it's not good for business and it's not good for the people of the

respective countries if you mention a europe i understand that you take great interest in the european union and especially in the upcoming european election what do you think is at stake there. so i think you know as being a european you know we can be so satisfied what we have achieved for travel for a year of the progress europe has made in the last fifteen years is tremendous you know if you see that we are all democratic countries it's a great achievement real live in peace you know europe is one of the best if not the best place on the planet and that is very much willing to eat us what do you need three forms and that's the reason why we have to stream from the palm and the parliament is that everybody goes to voting so i say constantly internally if i go out and have tunnels of all people please go boating it's your choice for vuln you vote but the more people go vote the more power we get in europe in support and then we can address the necessary reforms which definitely there are some ok this

apple twenty seconds left are you taking an active role in politics any plans on that line. no i'm a businessman i'm very excited about my role i want to continue to play my role in the big business and politicians are slightly different and they should do that drop as good as i can find apple this. group thank you so much for your time this morning thank you. germany and them will extend a temporary ban on exports to saudi arabia until the end of the month and the ban which germany instituted following the murder of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi applies to countries involved in the yemen war and it has led to those domestic and international tension also at home berlin is facing pressure from the german arms industry on sectors related to its like the shipyards on the germany's baltic sea. this is what the fuss is about for patrol boats to fend off coastal threats from

the likes of pirates this is the closest we are allowed to film for security reasons the pain of af shipyard wants to deliver the boats to saudi arabia but that's out of the question now following palin's export ban on arms to the gulf kingdom production is at a standstill twenty percent of the workforce have had to our slashed and their hopes are sinking. as. the political. of course the politicians initially signaled that they decide quickly the whole thing's been delayed now three times the way things stand. today and of course that's left the workers in a mood that can only be described as one of disappointment and resignation losing out on the shotgun it was supposed to be a billion dollar deal for the shipyard listen group subsidiary promise to tarnow to patrol boats for the saudis that invested millions of euros in the equipment needed to build them. the money also went into building

a supply chain for the task. the four hundred one phone system by mutes obviously the suppliers now want to hear what's going to happen and when and the workers want to know how and when things will happen or when do we come up produced work hours when and when you touch it all up commercially it's an enormous strain for the shipyard to have to deal with here to fuck off not to mow. the shipyards hometime evolved is also suffering under the export. on pain of death and its suppliers are the largest employers here the slump in pain as income has led to a shortfall of millions in the times budget money are gently needed to repair school buildings for one the tired mayor has come under a barrage of criticism for speaking out about the problems listen to all of the is that we're short of money that we need to fulfill our responsibilities and this defeat isn't the end it may appear perfidious to some but we're busy building

a child daycare center and renovating a school and our financial contribution to that is missing the. most involved last one an end to the constant delivery delays people want to know whether the finished patrol boats can be delivered are not and if the rest can then be built or if the shipyard will have to launch a search for other buyers and seek out some fresh business instead. that's your business update on the team thanks for watching. the.
