stepping aside to step back in at least prime minister is set to resign with his government in crisis but observers expect that he'll be back. i'm told me a lot of welcome to the program the u.s. house of representatives is due to send the article of impeachment against former president donald trump to the senate that will trigger preparations for an impeachment trial which would be the 1st faced by a president after leaving office trump is charged with insights in the attack on the u.s. capitol by a violent mob of his supporters he previously faced impeachment in 2019 over his a attempt to pressure ukraine for personal political gains but the republican led senate at the time acquitted him. let's bring indeed up hughes
12:02 am
washington bureau chief innes paul innes thank you for joining us some republican lawmakers are concerned about trump's devoted base of voters and of objected to the impeachment is the true rift in the republican party this is the challenge for the republican party in the so-called post trump world tony you know his devoted and loyal supporters have made it crystal clear that they will only accept politicians that 100 percent supported the former president on every matter and this fracturing is also beginning to show in congress either you support president trump or you don't so the war is that these loyalists are really going to sink the party for the future. so the man is already gone from office but aren't impeachment usually focused on someone who's in office.
12:03 am
i'll tell you the fake this president trump was never a normal president the former president is being accused for inciting an insurrection something that has never been seen in modern day politics we all always have to keep that in mind when we discuss this i would standing and then president of measure so for the democrats they just want to make an example of trump even though they may not have the numbers to convict him they just want to make sure that no president ever can attack the democratic process again that by the end of the day holds the u.s. together. the supreme court just dismissed emolument cases against trump what exactly are those and what does the court's decision mean. well you know it really by the end of the day would mean if they would really get 17 republicans to war for the. president trump would never ever be able to hold
12:04 am
an office again and that is what the democrats ones to happen but as for now it doesn't seem too likely that they get the support of the 17 republicans they would need and this is a split senate with $5050.00 so it's probably likely that it won't take place now all of this will take some time as all these debates and trials go on but one that distract from biden's joe biden's legislative agenda. well that was the big fear from the beginning on. joe biden obviously isn't a big supporter of this impeachment but you know they have no time until february 8th and they try to get as many of biden's new administration into office is indeed that is
12:05 am
a fear that the attention of the new administration is really taken away by the 2nd impeachment of former president. ok in a school that's news bureau chief in washington thank you for bringing us up to speed now let's have a look at the headlines from around the world. u.s. climate envoy joe and john kerry has told a virtual summit of world leaders that president joe biden's new administration will play its role in tackling climate change last week biden signed an executive order returning the u.s. to the 25th paris climate accord reversing the country's withdrawal i don't trump. scientists say the earth's ice is melting at almost 60 percent faster than it did in the mid 1990 s.

12:31 am
still waiting for answers. this is the w. business i'm in in berlin glad you could join us president joe biden has signed an executive order forcing government agencies to buy american as he calls it biden hopes to increase government per curiam and of american goods to boost manufacturing and construction american allies had hoped biden entering office would signal a return to economic liberalization especially where the $600000000000.00 up for grabs that u.s. federal agencies spend each year here's what joe biden had to say today we're getting to work to rebuild the backbone of america and the fracturing unions of the middle class is based on a simple premise that will reward work not wealth in this country and they keep klank of ensuring that future will be made in america. that means we're going to
12:32 am
use taxpayers' money to rebuild america will buy american products and support american jobs our competitors aren't waiting to ensure the future is made in america we need to win not just the jobs of today but the jobs and industries of tomorrow to discuss this further our correspondent joins us from new york. but in calls of buy american the previous administration called it america 1st what's the difference here really. well one obvious difference is surjit told me well that old saw only brings you so far as your training partner course the united states but what clearly is also a difference is that donald trump worked on a lot with tariffs and so here now we have this authors saw that government agencies are supposed to buy american products they're also changing what is
12:33 am
qualified as an american products or what percentage is actually being built in the united states and just to get an idea of what amount we're talking about we're talking about it industry or it's roughly $600000000000.00 so it's about domestic products as well but biden said he wanted to reach out to allies but isn't this just the opposite. oh well yes so but in general i would say so even if the authors or their government agencies are supposed to buy american products is not necessarily new but did not really get in forced them in the past couple of years and then if you look around the globe i mean there was a tendency for him a lot of countries to actually bring their supply chains back into their country is so vet is also one argument that the biden as administration raise so that especially the pandemic has shown if you're too dependent from foreign nations and
12:34 am
then maybe you might not be able to get certain supplies so that it might be a good idea to bring production from certain items for for certain ira items back to its own country so in this case to the united states. talking about buy america thank you very much. now the coronavirus pandemic has dealt a crushing blow to the labor market even worse than the one dealt by the 2009 financial crisis you might have even felt it yourself now you've got the latest report by the international labor organization to back you up nearly 9 percent of working hours worldwide were lost last year compared to the and the 2019 if you add up the total work hours last us year we're looking at the equivalent of $255000000.00 full time jobs gone just like that and that work is worth $3.00 trillion dollars in lost wages and not everyone has suffered the effects of this
12:35 am
labor disruption in the same way women and young people have been especially affected. now earlier i spoke to the island's director general guy ryder i started by asking whether he was surprised by anything he read in the report not really because we've been tracking the impact of the virus on the world of work since march of last year and we've seen the impact over the years so what we've done in our current report is make the balance sheet of the whole 2020 with the results that you mentioned this extraordinary loss of of work equivalent to 255000000 full time jobs but what we try to do is to break that down and say well what are the realities behind that headline figure and what you find is that about harf of that loss of work is due to people working shorter hours sometimes no hours at all but staying in that job and the other half is about loss of employment
12:36 am
unemployment as such has gone up only i say only by 33000000 but we seen 81000000 people leave the labor market become inactive that's particularly the case for young people and i think that's a very worrying message and it's one of the grab the shop me when i read this report. so there are obviously degrees to this loss of work now what do you say that enough was done is this high about of losses unavoidable or would you consider it a failure well i think there's no doubt that this is dramatic loss of jobs as you said probably 4 times the employment impact of the financial crisis back in 20082009 but the reality is and i think one must recognize it is that governments around the world have mobilized in unprecedented ways and spent unprecedented volumes of resources to support enterprises to supporting comes to keep the economy moving i think behind that aggregate story again as from very different national
12:37 am
experiences some countries have the resources the means the access to financial markets to sustain that effort but if you go to the developing world the emerging countries they have much more difficulty and i think this an even notice of the impact of the crisis and the unevenness of the capacity of governments to respond to it is one of the things that we have to keep firmly in mind as we look to the recovery ahead now the world's only gather every year for the world economic forum traditionally held in davos in switzerland this year however the forum has moved to a digital format because of the pandemic among the attendees is christine legarde the president of the european central bank she came with a message focused on sustainability there is a very strong by people. with
