made important, but the u. s. has already imposed terrace of a 100 percent on chinese electric vehicles to protect american car makers and europe is on a similar path today. the european union slap tariffs on chinese e vehicles as fears mount. but a su nami of cheap chinese electric cars could drown europe's carmakers. massive layoffs are already in the works at volkswagen. so why did germany vote against the terrorists and bring gulf and berlin? this is the day, the global markets and all lot it was cheaper. chinese electric cars. flies really been is kind of, i'm not a fund of charles my because that's where the line community to counter measures and will involve us in the tariff disputes, perhaps a tower for which china is open to competition. but not for race to the bottom.

as a place is the worst step in an economic cold war, this is the worst thing that could happen to europe. we must defend ourselves against unfair practices. also coming up no work and no roof over their heads. israel's attacks against hezbollah and the impact that they are having on thousands of foreign workers in the lab. and not most of the women were abandoned by their employers who had fled to safety and left their employees trended in the middle of the conflict. so and then sir, doesn't want you to just drop you somewhere without your papers and you can't do anything wrong review as long as you're going to cbs in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin today with some serious sticker shock for europeans considering their 1st electric cars and the car made in europe

or the united states average is about 45 to 50000 euro is now compare that to an e car important from china, which will set you back by about 32000 euro. so that is a huge price difference. and a major road block for european carmakers trying to transition from gasoline. diesel to electric volkswagen. europe's biggest car and baker is already in trouble . last month. they weren't, that sales are dangerously weak. in fact, the company has not ruled out massive layoffs and possibly shutting down manufacturing plants. here in germany, consumers say that they are shying away from e cars made by dw and other european, all the makers because of the prices are simply too high. and the chinese choice cheaper that is set to change. today, the european union denounced the new tariffs on a car in ports from china. germany voted against the tariffs warning that this could be the 1st shot in a trade war between europe and china. if you're based in the you

and looking to buy an electric, he goes from china, get ready to be a bit more i decided to go to use. we use dates back to have the additional data on ease imported from china. it's not as much as the 100 percent in both duties. the us or canada, please on chinese is earlier this year, but it's still a significant move on a global level. it points to approve it towards protection and some other countries over using google arises to be sure that they're all thomas policies of contacted by international market forces. it also highlights the shifting balance of power within your on china policy. on one side, there's german john split off schultz and the c. e. o. 's of the leading german gone because they've been fun. china would respond by distributing the exports of

particular ideas. german thought me cause need to make easy batteries and that escalation could hit their seals in china. the biggest forward market for german cars. they oppose the data, fearing that german is produced in china and we'd be subject to hide in both debt. it's making them more expensive. on the other side, if the european commission that by force the left funding 9 who believe china is undermining the european god industry by subsidizing domestic production and fueling an unfair to market the commission. but also capitals in europe increasingly see china. and as the economics threat, um some, uh, some would also say, you know, trying to, it was a capacities for instance, aust threatening employment in europe. last year she went as far as opening an in the subsidy group into china actions. we must defend ourselves against unset practices, the wards by

e u. member states to place additional duties on chinese ease. if assign the durham and he's losing, it's a part of the in the block. and that the e u is no longer willing to give to treat pression from china. but both sides are willing to negotiate, even as the data go into effect until this point out to bid us know when they're in this dispute. what you're seeing, those unfortunately a situation where the costly increasing production isn't withdrawing out the the, the, was the possible they wouldn't solve the crisis in the car industry despite its tricks to piece or can you treat that it's on, you would have been brandy polk and daddy products, which amount to nearly 2000000000 euros and treat william for your guard industry. analysts believe china isn't really willing to engage enough creedmore, especially as the condensed but the struggling economy or let's bring it in the w as terry shultz. she's in brussels. she's been following the story for is terry the

decision to slap terror acts on chinese e cars, imports. it was contemptuous to say the least drive us through these numbers if you could. so let me drive use the vin number as brent. yeah, the european commission, which of course came up with this proposal is spinning this decision today as a when, even though more countries abstained from taking a vote on whether to impose these terrorists, then voted for it. 12 countries decided not to raise their hand on either side of the issue. 10 countries led by france, italy, poland, bin countries were for the terrace. and germany was the only really big power to abstain, joined only by hungering, malta slovenia as lucky. so there really wasn't a chance that they were going to be able to stop this measure from going forward. so the european commission basically had to say, well, at least we have the support we needed, if not overwhelming support to push through these tariffs. they are very

controversial. many countries don't want to stand up and portray themselves as an enemy of china. they have a lot of, um, you know, commercial ties still with the country. they don't want to really antagonize china because of possible blow back. and so that's why the boat was so complicated today for the commission. yeah, germany is your largest economy. it is home to its biggest automakers, yet germany opposes these new terrorists. this seems counter intuitive. is it? as well as out also the biggest ex porter and a 3rd of german cars that go to china. and so germany's very concerned that china is going to take retaliatory measures, which of course, it probably will. and china has already announced probes into a certain sector is not necessarily the automatic bill sector at the moment. dairy alcohol, it will find some way to retaliate, and that's understandable. this is how even the u. s. and the european union

operate against each other when it comes for terence, you know, we've talked many times about tit for tat terrace. and so that's what's likely to happen. and that's what germany's worried about. no one could argue that the territory a result of unfair chinese subsidies or one could argue that the tears are needed because european carmakers have been sleeping at the wheel when it comes to the cart transition. what's the truth? so i think both couldn't be true. i the, the european commission said that it's investigation showed that china is heavily subsidizing his industry. i don't think that comes as a surprise to anyone. and the commission says it just wants to level the playing field when it comes to the vehicle. but one of the reasons why it, it needs to take these measures and as it says level, the playing field is because as you say, europe and carmakers have been slow to transition to, to european vehicles. but that's because european consumers are slow to adopt electric vehicles, sorry. and um, you know, the, the story that you saw before before i joined you. um,

basically explained that the cost is very high in europe and people simply aren't willing, aren't willing to buy them much cheaper in china. china sells more eaves than any other country, although germany interesting least exports more than any other country. so yeah, this is the book, both are true and, and basically carmakers your, your e v makers are saying they need to subsidize sales of the these more to in sense of what's incentivized consumers, divide them yet the united states already has tears at a 100 percent on chinese, electric vehicles, why is that a step too far for you, or bet them all as well? the u. s. has always been ahead of europe in seeing china as a rival, seen china definitely as a commercial challenge and the military challenge as well. and it is not surprising, they washington has been much less fearful of, of what china can do. i think that you're, as i mentioned earlier,

european countries still have strong commercial ties. and many of them do not want to see china as an enemy of any kind, so they're simply not willing to take. so charge measures at the same time. this is a big step for the european commission. you know the terrace could be up to 45 percent. that's a lot higher than, than we've seen in the past. and these are likely to come into effect next month at the latest for at least 5 years. and the commission hopes that this will pressure china to negotiate. the spokespeople said today that negotiations are ongoing and will continue despite the fact that these will come into 4th period. you and i, we have talked to numerous times about the rise of china and europe's response to that. what did these parents tell us about trans atlantic ties in a world where china is more and more the main rival, a well, i think in europe has evolved a lot on his position on china. and from what i was explaining before,

not wanting to see china as arrival, and in fact, joining in chinese commercial ventures like built in road allowing china to become partners, in many cases already having sold important infrastructure to china. ports in greece and air field in another was part of the hammer and port has been sold to china. so i think that europe has been slow to awaken to the us view that china is not really a trusted partner. now actually this puts china as it puts the, the european unit and the us closer together in this view. and so, well, this was something that really was an, an issue in the trump administration. in fact, the us threatened to cut off intelligence sharing with europe. if they didn't stop using walk away phones, for example. yeah. so, so this may actually improve transatlantic ties. it because it puts them more on the same page. and let's point out is the bite and administration that put a 100 percent terrace on ease. it's not the trump administration, so in fact,

there may be less of a difference between a potential new bought in new trump administration, and the bottom administration is very good as a very good point. the future very much. i'm looking like the past. sometimes he doesn't use terry schultz on the story for us tonight in brussels. terry think it's estimated that more than a 1000000 people in lebanon and have been displaced since is real intensified. it's a tax on hezbollah inside the country, and that's about 20 percent of the population. and that includes thousands of foreign workers who are suddenly without a job and without a roof over their heads w's. they re, bureau chief mohammed traitor, has more as this mixture of soup kitchen is serving food, 200 rubles migrant workers in war tone lip and on my right is preparing the next you just outside her restaurant. trust somebody. yes. nearby route she herself is

a migrant worker from the philippines. but she's here as a volunteer to help others in the migrant community. government schools are offering a shelter for people, but migrants are not allowed. so most of them i guess, are in just in the state, if they don't have to end the seats or the culture they come with this them. so for somebody else has really try to get this on helping the migrants, whether it's free to be no regardless of nice. oh function of this, we are helping them, my friends with the full and uh, security. i'm interested in to 1000000 people are on the move shelters like this one nearby. we are struggling to house committees. families cleaning is what you the s wrecks. it's getting dark here enabled. as you can see behind me, there's a lot of people that would have to spend another nights on the streets, some of them olive, and he is, we couldn't find who mean any of the overcrowded shows us. but most here are

foreign workers who just have no place to go. right indicate use of the roots downtown. we supported a group of domestic workers from sierra and young. most of them flipped, saw the been on, and the sold and suburbs are field looking for safety and trip any some 80 kilometer is north a free route for they were turned away from a school which was serving as a shelter. so the message to send me was the school is not for my address, it's 411 is people as they are not allowing them to stay, most of the women were abandoned by their employers who had fled to safety and left their employees trended in the middle of the conflict, so event that doesn't want you to just drop you somewhere without your papers and you can't do anything with their passports and legal documents to the position of their employers. these women can not exit the country,

left to fend for themselves. the desperate to keep looking for shelter as these were you the minute 3 orders more. if i could ration from pounds and solving the been on the number of refugees is growing. and the chances of finding even a room for the night would soon become almost impossible. but thousands and thousands of displaced civilians are fleeing 11 on along the only land route out of the country into neighboring syria. and if they can, that is on friday is really air strikes. cut off the main highway leaking, the 2 countries. israel says it targeted the tunnel that was being used by hezbollah militants to smuggle weapons into lab a non, from iran, you ins as the highway is no longer open to traffic, but that is not stopping people from using their feet to sleep. let me know what i'm doing now by now. her why she's a senior analyst for siri at the international crisis group. and he is in do by

tonight and then are, is going to have you with this. can i 1st get your thoughts on what seems to be the irony of this moment? people are fleeing a war in lebanon, and seeking safety and syria, a country that it's known for its own civil moore that has prompted hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people to leads. yes, thank you for having me. um, yeah, it is. it is very unfortunate for syrians. uh uh, since since these uh oh, this is really escalation. uh, they have triggered the new wave of this placement. syria was sending the already difficult humanitarian situation over 245000 people across until now. into serious on the majority of which all the syrian refugees, serious capacity to absolve these displaced people is extremely limited. and the

displacement has all the it's already strained resources. on top of that, some syrians resulting from loving on face the driscoll salvatore arrest and being scripted into the army. so the new wave of displacement has only deepened serious, committed survey process of the country leads. it's an optional so forth to cope with this with this new weight. then i know that you had been concerned that reporting on the war in gaza has meant less news coverage of the conflict in syria. perhaps this is another i renewed the conflicts between israel and hezbollah seems to be re focusing attention on the conflict in syria. these things that's a positive development. and i,

i, i, i would never say a more escalation is, is something that to be a was, i think unfortunately there's more focus on it just because things are getting from bob to the, to was the, the thing is if, if loving on becomes more unstable, due to the conflict, they said based ability will spill over to syria, is level on a serious face or intertwined. so there's more that's a focus or attention on syria. i don't think it's, it's lost the cos, let's say. is there anything for bush l. a saw the leader in syria to gain by taking in more and more people from 11 on other than perhaps the, the optics of, of good p r i

wouldn't say that i say, i think yeah, i would i think they the situation in syria. oh the say being and 0 not too long ago. um, the, the, the situation is, is dire. the, the economy, they are all the facts of the civil war. all still parts of daily life. and syria is not on the face of all destruction like reconstruction. but the becoming crisis, the economy has suffered since the beginning of the war, and there's only increased after 2022 specifically off the 11 on the come on the gloves and the alternate international sanctions. 90 percent of the population on the, on the public to more so more people coming in the country, especially the mazda,

is well, only makes things was, will only make things more difficult for the, for the current human government. so i wouldn't say there's, there's a lot to gain all the all the 0 sides, the multiplicity, or more focusing on the dia, they can all make situations. i would say that's the only positive thing portion. and you're aware that some european countries have classified syria as an unsaved country. that has implications for people coming from syria who are seeking asylum . do the events particularly the past week with people going to syria. now, do they signal to hear that syria is now a safe country that those seeking asylum can perhaps be sent back with good reason? the last 311 on because it's in

a high intensity war. definitely, and let's say from a high intensity conflict into low intensity conflict with quite a bit of issues. so people, they treat me fleeing bones and they're there as far as what locked into it, let's say a less hostile area. and this whole style area is still hostile area. so compared to love in all right, now syria is most h, but that's it. it doesn't make it will say that that makes sense. yeah, no, i understand what you're saying before we've been out of time. but what about the role that syria place for both the us and the ron at the moment? there are u. s. military bases in syria and the rac iran once the us out of the region is the role of syria in this equation. do you think changing

unfortunately for syria i system or the war and guys how it has all the worry guys on his, on the line see of his role as a bottle brown for escalations between different doctors. oh. between regional office. uh, we're seeing an increase the tax by uranium by hoops targeting us bases is yours ease, and these are thoughts i have been framed as retaliation for us support of as well . so more, let's say more escalation in different areas, neighbor one, syria is going to be more escalation is here, as is the bottom, the bottom ground will the factors. okay? now her watch with the international crisis group, and we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us. we appreciate you putting things in a very valuable context for us. thank you. thank you so much for our or the,
