12:33 pm
leaders and businessmen and as tensions rise over the young. the so-called currency war and the related to see with global trade imbalances raising the risk of a move towards protectionism the pressure really is on to talk us through some of these challenges i'm not very p.c. i'm joined by correspondent from the christian science monitor. many thanks for being with us. mr kerik now we are in the midst of what's being dubbed a currency war with the u.s. and china really long to head. off a currency manipulation do you think that there's a way out of this and well maybe a way out of it but i'm not. certain that we're going to get out of it any time soon the g. twenty summit did not come out with any real consensus on currency balances they certainly came out with strong resolution of the so that it's not good and they
12:34 pm
said volatility is not good and all this other stuff is not good but actually agree on a way to on the way to resolve it aside from recognizing the problem and saying yes let's try to resolve it and then of course there's also the. issue of global trade imbalances do you think the u.s. is justified in asking export having countries like china and germany to curb their reliance on exports in order to to rebalance trade or librium well you know i don't know if the u.s. is justified but i will say the u.s. has a terrific trade deficit and trade deficit with china is just enormous you know it's like china exports several times as much as the u.s. next. to china and so you know from a prominent american point of view the u.s. has got to do something about this obviously the u.s. has to take care of a lot of domestic problems its own problems its own internal problems no doubt about that but they also have to lean on exports to raise the value of their
12:35 pm
currency to more realistic levels as president obama pointed out quite frankly in his press conference china intervenes heavily in the market to keep the you want to keep the renminbi that you won at a lower rate than it really should be so you know the u.s. has to do something and they've got to they've got to improve domestically and they've got to try to improve they've got to try to slash. you know surpluses of other countries i can't blame the us for for behaving that way and we don't want of this school pulling going on they do you think that there really is a danger that countries might be considered local to the rain if you'd like to see protectionist policies i think there's a real danger of that and the danger is not just countries elsewhere around the world of the dangers within the u.s. the american congress might get protectionist if this goes on they're not going to get protectionist right away they're not going to get protectionist next year the
12:36 pm
next congress is not going to be protectionist but over the years protectionist sentiment could certainly build and finally the congress would say ok keep out all this foreign stuff you know that's. all these imports i'm not saying that's good that that part is not good. in fact that's a real danger that's not a solution that's a danger but that could happen and also other countries could certainly respond with protectionist measures of their own a lot of countries already have protectionist measures one of one sort or another you know where does all of that b.p. if you're a free trader get something that wealthy just consistently say that that committee but we see we've been told much going for waves well i think free trade is. it is in danger here you know will we see a movie that's part of what this g. twenty was all about to encourage free trade to bring down some of the barriers to encourage countries to take a more open position and to do something about their overvalued their undervalued
12:37 pm
currency and so forth and you know that's that's what this kind of talk fest is all about but there is a danger free trade is that is in danger here and how would you gauge gloop reaction to that shock announcement we recently had from the federal reserve that it was going to impact on the second round of quantitative easing the six hundred billion dollars being pumped into the economy we have some partial christmas coming out from developing a coming saying that that's seriously bored it could whomp them markets but also from countries like germany right right that was a shocker. the u.s. federal reserve announced that it was buying treasury bonds worth six hundred billion dollars and this was on top of the previous purchase of treasury bonds worth one point seven billion dollars this you know is an invitation for the u.s. to print ever more one hundred dollar bills i mean what do you pay for the stuff with you know you know pay for by writing
12:38 pm
a check you pay for it and ultimately in the end you pay for it by cash and this cash starts hitting world markets some markets are more volatile than others and obviously it's going to have an effect that while the world responds now the u.s. response is we have to do something to improve our economy to overcome our deficits our economy improves that means your economy will improve because we'll be doing more business you'll even be selling more stuff to the u.s. and will be buying more stuff from you so you know there are no doubt there are arguments pro and con but it was a shock and. you know there are some people who are not quite as critical to us as others but i don't recall anybody. the u.s. move i don't recall anybody saying oh it's smart move i don't i don't think i don't think anybody said that there was some people who were not critical but they didn't they didn't they were not in favor either you know you mentioned that the relevance of the g twenty people here in seoul maybe felt disconnected towards the summit
12:39 pm
that they were at excited about and said how relevant would you say that this group is today and and how united is it is that still a consensus do you think among its members to really change the well financial system well they're desperately trying to give that impression i don't think there is a consensus but they're trying they're trying to give that impression and they're not united i mean twenty twenty countries with so many from so many different issues and so different parts of the world and so many concerns going to be united however one significant aspect of this g. twenty was that it gave more more say considerably more say the what are called emerging market countries led by china which is you know the biggest obviously the biggest one but also including such powers as india indonesia was here saudi arabia was your turkey was your you know there were a lot of countries that were represented here there weren't getting any kind of representation before. substantively in terms of real action not just talking the
12:40 pm
g. twenty did in-doors the move by the international monetary fund the i.m.f. to give greater quotas to china to india to other emerging market countries to give considerably greater quotas to those countries and also to give them two more board seats taking away two seats from european countries something that we didn't really hear much movement on is that all of them getting into bates all of the u.s. dollar as a reserve currency and america's management of it what do you think that it would take the leading countries to really begin to see multi-currency. well i think they may be on the way to that some people think you want. might become you know a global currency if you were on the streets of america conducting interviews of people and you ask you know what i read and then be as they wouldn't have a clue you know absolutely no clue and you ask them what do you want to was they would know what you're talking about here i'm quite sure they would. they should
12:41 pm
know what british sterling is all about. you know a few other cars and they certainly heard of the japanese yen but you know as time goes on as the emerging market countries gain power and influence and as this part of the world soars economically you know not just china but korea you know japan they say is stagnant it was not really stagnant it's a very productive country you know there's the g.d.p. is it may not be increasing as much as other countries but it's not going down either you know it's and it's a major world economic power so this part of the world is as if it increases in importance is there is a chance of the dollar may and as the dollar and if the dollar deep freeze. further there is a chance that other countries other currencies may soon may come to the fore and we'll have a multi currency system can't rule that out it's possible then maybe be probable.
