chemicals make a bio is reorganizing its troops for the fight back against the tide of legal challenges over its life to say we kill them. this is the business and as in berlin wall come the day before the g. 20 summit kicks off in japan there's significant movement in the trade conflict between the u.s. and china according to the south china morning post and politico the 2 sides have agreed on a so-called tentative truce delaying a fresh round of u.s. tariffs that would have extended levies on nearly all chinese products coming to the u.s. according to the reports the home was a condition the chinese side is set before agreeing to a meeting between presidents g g and paying donald trump now scheduled for saturday on the sidelines of the g. 20 meeting chinese president xi jinping arrived in osaka and the rain on thursday morning but the forecast for trade talks with the u.s. has apparently gotten a little sunnier amid reports of the tentative truce on the tarney topic of

additional tariffs optimism has been building among world leaders that a deal is within reach between the superpowers when their leaders made in japan. do not worry about it in regard to the u.s. china trade expect the united states and china will constructively resolve the issue through dialogue including the us china meeting during the g 20 summit. that were at a time of very high tensions between the united states and china so joining the g 20 summit i hope we can have talks that will ease the tension zippers month. analysts say and out and out solution to the trade dispute is unlikely to be found this weekend but one survey of investors suggests they aren't expecting any new tariffs either as the latest report suggests your trump has not ruled out the possibility and ours is possible we're going to get there but i'm also very happy where we are now would take you know what action if we don't make

a deal i will terrified maybe not a 25 percent but maybe a 10 percent but i will tear up the rest of the $600000000000.00 that we're talking about. a trump lookalike has already arrived in osaka but we're volatile markets need from this weekend's g 20 is a real deal and while there seems to be some progress with china things local a little less clear with another important u.s. trading partner india following us move to suspend indian trade privileges india last week raise tariffs on 28 u.s. imports mostly arkell cultural goods in a tweet from call for terrorists unacceptable and demanded the quote must be withdrawn at a meeting with indian counterparts on wednesday u.s. secretary of state might pompei or set the countries to work through things. joined it is studio by dennis snow he's the president of the global solutions

initiative that's a gathering of the world's leading think tanks are representing a lot of brainpower today here thank you for joining me dennis a truce with china seems to be there and a resolution of the conflict on the cards more trouble is brewing with india are those 2 conference on the pot will not at all and those who are close to the discussions say that the entire threatened trade war between the u.s. and china is not really about trade it's about technological dominance. to explain china has accumulated a huge strong position in the new digital technologies because the china's such a large country and the state has an enormous amount of information about its citizens and. helps it make very rapid progress. and that is a threat to the perceived as a threat to the united states as

a power and not not it's also dollars power and there of course the matter is about who will be dominant in the digital age in the future with regard to india this is not the same issue the same is the trade war me we've been reporting and talking about the trade war for i don't know how long now is that really our biggest problem in the world economy right now. well trump could make it a very major problem because a trade war can cause a huge amount of damage to the world economy but at present we've got lots of other problems they have could be another financial crisis because although we've taken steps the system is still unstable because taxed. still they have to rescue lauds financially relevant institutions

and there are many other global problems particularly problems concerned with the regulation of e-commerce and services which are not covered by trade rules and so the focus of goods is misplaced because we are moving into a world where goods will be produced law edgeley by machines close to the customers but the big world's trade issues will surround services that are digitally movable. let's say this trade war with china comes to an end this weekend is the u.s. any better off. for it because the i.m.f. says it costs $455000000000.00 u.s. dollars in damage per year so drained wars and this

skirmish has already been very damaging and the thing to be understood is that most goods holidays and produced in many countries so the factory of to day expenses across many national borders and therefore if you have a tariff that's like a wall inside a factory it obstructs everybody and damages everyone including the u.s. which has so far has been estimated suffered $60000000000.00 of damage but trump something good with balls has he really any claim that he has achieved anything for american workers economically he's done the opposite he's hurt the american workers because the damage that is done through the production of goods and services and they can. more expensive exceeds the. trade to think of

using american workers more intensively but i think what is overlooked in all of this is the terror of war stands for something important in american identity of those who feel on the privileged and they believe this is a president who is fighting their corner and that can supersede a lot of economic ills fairness no thank you very much for coming to the studio today. by a is taking steps to deal with the damaging series of legal challenges that faces in the u.s. over the life of based decides the german from mr ticals maker has set up a special committee to try to cope with the potentially massive legal bills it faces are for a subsidiary monsanto was deep responsible for causing cancer and users of its weed killer roundup bio already faces many millions in legal bills.
