to stay behind and simply be able my husband went to peru because of the crises that i wonder if he hadn't gone there we would have died of hunger i don't want to sound. just released this week to w. . the scars of the trade war as china clocks its weakest are going to make a spanish in in decades how much cooling can the world's 2nd largest economy take and these sheep are the key to a croatian colony or delight that's one of the highlights as the world's biggest agricultural trade fair gets underway here in berlin. i'm chris cuomo welcome to the program china's gross domestic product last year grew at its slowest pace in almost 3 decades weaker exports and sluggish consumer demand weighed on the world's

2nd biggest economy economic growth fell to 6 point one percent while that was within the government's target zone it was lower than economists had forecast that was nesta man for chinese p.c.'s and phones as well as products affected by the trade dispute with the united states such as furniture and textiles beijing and washington signed a phase one deal this week. china clocks the lowest economic growth in 30 years for more let's cross over to taipei and our correspondent so song hand so how much of that cooling can be attribute it to the trade war with the united states. well chris according to some at spurs i talked to the existing u.s. tariff on chinese goods could have a drag 0.3 percent of the g.d.p.

growth and that is the direct impact if we count in the indirect impact of the global trade that's edition no drac of their 0.2 percent so if we follow this logic china could have reached 6.5 percent goal without a trade war even some say that china is also dealing with rising debt and could almost demand but the tray wall is still the key and that's why china wants to stop it as soon as possible all right let's bring in correspondent only bards of the frankfurt stock exchange here as well only tell us about the market reaction to these figures. well the markets initially react the very positively chinese shares went up and also shares and the nikkei the one soared to 6 months high but those gains have been pared the nikkei still positive but chinese actually losing a little bit you know on 2nd glance the number is not spectacular 6 point one percent

that's almost at the bottom of the range that the chinese officially set for their economy 2019 yes there was that uptick in late 2019 that was a very promising sign based on a trade deal happening and not much still maybe happening to prevent that but you know when you look at the 6 point one percent and where it was only a little while ago and when you look at also all the criticism of the vote economists i talked to that the chinese to 6 are accurate that it's not all that good for the markets all right so back to you in taipei how does this weekend to get on with you spend ssion impact people's lives. well ordinary people probably won't feel it until they lose their job beijing is struggling to create over $8000000.00 jobs for college graduates each year and some said that the trade war may have influenced around $4000000.00 jobs and that's half

it and we know that unemployment green social instability in china and that's why the chinese government has been emphasizing the importance of job creation in a time of economic downturn now that could be a problem going ahead though because china's state power company which has to make dependable long term evaluations is expecting g.d.p. growth to drop to 4 percent within the next 5 years how realistic is that well it's it is realistic but the ruling chinese communist party is under a lot of pressure to present a good economic result ahead of the party's 100th anniversary in 2021 so that's why the chinese government is paying a lot of attention on the slowing economy and the chinese leaders will have to ensure that economy growth can remain between 5 percent to 6 percent so a 4 percent of g.d.p. growth number is possible but we probably won't see it because the chinese got more

try every way to stop it or at least back to you in frankfurt looking at this year what sort of economic output was sort of the economic growth our investors are expecting from china now that this phase one trade deal has been sealed with the united states. you know i'd personally hesitate to venture to give you even a trend but i think that with the trade deal coming and with the chinese dead set on keeping the economy on track come what may with monetary policy with fiscal policy that is stimulus for the economy when it comes i assume that it will be at least about the rate that it had in 2019 with but with the trade deal coming you have to know there's going to be no easing of tariffs until the comprehensive deal is sealed so that there won't be any quantity of real monetary easing for the

chinese and for us in the rest of the world if the chinese want to even fulfill the promises they gave to the u.s. to buy their products as part of the phase one deal that could actually hurt people in the rest of the world when the chinese have to buy u.s. products replacement for products that they bought elsewhere in the world china's economic growth is cooling further only bards and frank furred and so sun hand in taipei thanks to you both. and we'll continue with the following story shortly after the ceiling of the u.s. trying to trade deal the european union has cast doubt over its legality the use top trade official has pledged to investigate whether china's commitment to increased purchases of years goods by $200000000000.00 is w t o compatible block says the amount a legal challenge if it finds violations my earlier chinese vice premier you hit
