slowdown in decades because of a bigger trade spot with the u.s. . designed by the late iraqi born architects deed the new airport will it 1st cater for 45000000 passengers by 2025 that will rise to 72000000 making it one of the world's most popular hubs. beijing dossing international airport is still smaller than the world's busiest airport in atlanta with 107000000 passengers followed by the existing beijing international airport with 101000000 and dubai international with 89000000 passengers passing through every year. it's the 2nd major airport built in beijing in just over a decade beijing international is already full one environmental activists elsewhere ask questions about the future of mass air transition china's aviation future is just taking off. the u.s. and japan have announced the outlines of a trade agreement which they expect to finish up in the near future in

a joint statement the 2 countries vowed to finish the deal in 4 months u.s. president donald trumps of the agreement would open up japanese markets to $7000000000.00 of american products potentially undermining the deal is trump's threat to put new tariffs on foreign cars imported into the u.s. . let's go now to our financial correspondent in new york yen scored a yen some interesting trade news there which of him but it's not really the trade news driving markets today what can you tell us. the other main trade news was actually some speculation or remarks from u.s. president donald trump and saying that trade deal with china could be closer then we think that does not mean that trade deal is imminent but this was some comforting news for the market but when it comes to the trade deal between the u.s. and japan there are also some interesting details for example part of it. is the

digital trade and then also it is good news for the u.s. farmer for the agricultural industry and at least for now obviously washington is not going to impose higher tariffs on car and car imports from japan and of course as we have to ask you about the big news in the u.s. right now this impeachment inquiry how is markets reacted to this if at all yet investors on wall street to basically shrugged it off maybe because they do not really believe that this impeachment inquiry is going to go anywhere but then also if you look at the positive the seventy's for example the impeachment inquiry against richard nixon that the markets big then got hammered was probably because of the oil crisis high inflation the end of the gold standard so those were probably the real reasons why the markets got hammered and if you look at the ninety's and the impeachment trial against bill clinton that the markets took off

big then was also not because of political turmoil but because of wall street was clearly focused on the dot called boom well as people are saying here on wall street the political bourses have short legs so those political events events usually do not have a big impact on stock trading here on wall street all right well of course see if that changes in the future yes quarter there for us in new york thank you. and let's look at some of the other global business headlines making news. boeing has reached settlements with 11 families of victims from october's lion air crash off the coast of indonesia each family were received $1200000.00 the $737.00 max was grounded after another crash in ethiopia a few months later a total of $346.00 people were killed in both crashes. the international monetary fund has picked crystal to lead the organization the bulgarian economists is due to

start her 5 year term on october 1st she said the i.m.f. top priority is to help countries minimize minimize risk and be ready to cope with downturns while supporting long term economic stability. the former head of bank in estonia. has been found dead initial reports point to suicide he was part of the ongoing investigation into an alleged money laundering scheme investigators allege the dons got funneled some 200000000000 euros in illicit funds through its tiny estonian branch during his tenure. germany's biggest stock exchange saw its largest tech i.p.o. in 2 decades on wednesday team viewer which makes video conferencing and remote working software went public at the frankfurt stock exchange it raised over 2200000000 euros. also in germany the berlin government hosted a forest summit on wednesday inviting forest managers and representatives of the

temper industry to discuss common challenges among them climate change and the rising threat of wildfires and disease. it's possible to measure the health of a tree how many leaves are needles that sheds is one indicator. there are 600 douglas firs in this forest east of one of the trees originally from north america and their development is being closely studied. but this leg of their a long dry spells let's say 6 weeks without rain 6 weeks of drought and the trees shrink they don't grow they shrink and the wood starts to contract. the douglas firs have small slit like openings in their bark they close when it's dry in order to stop the tree from drying out. they help the tree retain its moisture it's an adaptation to the dry climate that the trees evolved and.

we don't see any problems in this area. the trees are growing even during the dry spell. the tree tops also look healthy so we can say they're dealing well with the dryness. it's a very different picture 150 kilometers to the south. recent droughts have destroyed 110 hector's of forest land. and that's created a new problem for forest owners and rangers alike. the invasive bark beetle is spreading fast they burrow their way into the tree trunks if the trees aren't quickly cut down the beetle spread in danger in whole forests forest managers have to cut down huge swaths of forest land. as if we need to speed up our replanting efforts webbing that's a mix of as many different types of tree as possible will allow us to better manage

the risks. recently they've begun adding trees from the mediterranean region or southeast asia to the mix they're used to the warmer conditions but scientists warn beating the heat isn't the only problem. remember there are still risks if we introduced trees like these to germany then they could thrive in the warm months so they have to cope with late frosts that have the potential to greatly harm them. just giving it a try and seen what happens isn't a viable solution and once it and importing new tree species is expensive a single kilogram of douglas fir tree seeds cost $1200.00 euros but it's a worthwhile investment douglas firs have shown that there are a good fit for germany's forests. hoosier lays one of france's most famous wines and now it's at the center of

a human trafficking case french police have launched an investigation into 4 job agency managers they're accused of abusing seasonal workers in the country's famed vineyards. the grapes harvested in these far reaching vineyards will be pressed to make the 2019 beaujolais after another warm summer wine makers here are looking forward to a 1st taste but many of the people picking the grapes won't be able to afford a bottle of their own some are victims of a bulgarian network of human traffickers now under investigation by french police for defrauding thousands of workers. this year there are some 20000 seasonal workers in the bush or lay about half of the mobile gary and that's a lot it wasn't easy to find. so most workers came through a job agency a firm that promised workers 60 euros per day but allegedly kept most of the money

charged workers for their food and didn't provide adequate housing despite such promises the wine growers seem oblivious to what's going on. the view that we used to pay our workers directly but after $2.00 or 3 years somebody told us we will set up our own service company to make it easier for you you just have to pay our bill and we said why not. what seemed like a good deal for the vineyard has left some great pickers without enough money for the trip home. and that's it for me in the business team here thanks for watching.
