what unites these politicians is the worry that europe is not speaking to china with one voice. because china is focusing on us. so we want to focus on china because china is a very strong agenda with using any kind of energy and sign energy to expand its influence over all the countries of the western world. and therefore, we must have an agenda to what is the kind of investment that you can have all the kind of trade, authentic operation because we the gen 3, which is family way prevents any sort of corporation. even now, when we are talking, china is totally obscure and is the country of censorship, about the real origin, nature and consequences of damage in europe is now coming to realize that china is no longer a purely economic power, but also a political one. meanwhile, the dock workers union in paris has come to terms with its new chinese bosses and is trying to negotiate workers' rights as best it can immediately a video we went over the last 10 years the our experience with the chinese has been that they always negotiate as hard as they can and demand as much freedom a

i would really like to have seen a united europe, as everyone had predicted, a strong union with funded mental coordination was something quarterly and i'm interested in that. i would have liked to have seen those with more opportunities to help the other a true year of the nino k. what in the end, it didn't work out that way. most everyone closed their borders and said, because you wash your own dirty laundry at home, is particular about the link that really showed us that we can't talk about a single year only for the most. okay, for me to maintain a lot of deal with anyone who comes to tour, you can still experience the charm of the old hapsburg monarchy. 100 years ago, the port city was a trading house to eastern europe. the iron curtain interrupted the links for decades. now the city wants to return to its former glory and is hoping the chinese will help it when the silk wrote agreement was signed in march 2019 tree. yes. was that the center of attention northern italy was slated to become a major transshipment center for chinese export then i went to augustine, who is head of the

do we have sense as we have covid certificates going into effect about how united europe is in their approach? >> yes. if you look at net -- at that certificate, i hope we can show it on screen, it allows you to say you have been vaccinated, tested negative, or gone through covid. in terms of the eu 27, they managed to get this done on time. a few weeks ago, there were questions as to whether this could go into effect by july. they managed to do that. that is on the certificate side. on the politics, we see differences of opinion. germany is incredibly cautious on this. some countries, being too cautious can be economically detrimental. it is a tricky balance. but they have agreed on the certificate. we see political tensions over what restrictions could come into effect if the delta variant picks up in europe. dani: thanks for staying on top of this story. that is maria tadeo. as the u.k. and europe deal with the delta variant, the u.k. has laid out its rules for green bonds ahead of a planned sale of at least 15 billion pounds this fiscal year. we seem to have a delusion of bonds f

could ultimately happen in europe and the united states. vaccination rates have come up in europe.is still ahead but the u.s. and europe are not too far behind. there's the risk, as biden has been talking, that vaccination rates are slowing. that's a risk as well. herd immunity success in the u.k. would be an important turning point in the covid crisis. dani: if i can dig into that tail risk a bit. if there are concerns about the delta variant, variants in general, where you hide out? where do you want to own and that type of uncertain environment? derek: as you mentioned at the top of the hour, price action in the u.s. treasury market before this rapid turnaround, that's your obvious port of call in terms of if things start to worsen and we have a drop in 10 year yield as treasury markets tailed. a massive turnaround. 17 basis points since the day before yesterday. the corporate earnings results are quite positive. we are going into august. historically, on a seasonal basis, that tends to be favorable for the u.s. dollar, the japanese yen. we are into an environment where risk cou

states.differences between europe and the united states are enormous. as we know. >> what is sovereignty and where is the line drawn smr there's so much in both of these books that kind of national pride and a national extension common way of seeing the world area commonly of sovereignty. >> is that all part of this to and what is, why is sovereignty over your own, why is that, why is that so important. ? >> two, half of english, we don't forget that although i might directly talk about how our history shapes that. also a lot of people don't think it did and still don't. i think you put your finger on the difference. those who feel that national self-government is important partly for its own state and partly because when you become part of the larger group which has very little sense of solidarity and we seen itin the european union recently . you can't have a democratic system. the best you can hope for is some sort of bureaucratic system run on your behalf i people who know better than you. and of course nthat's always been part

by the way, africa has to pay for the vaccines much more than the united states or western europe. if we use that experience and apply that to energy, do you have confidence that again, if we agree on being fair to one another data for me, the case of a renewable energy and energy transformation can be a little different directions case because because of transforming to our new energy system is going to be a kind of a new opportunity for industrial revolution and in the future, industrial competitiveness. this is the, in the own interest, self interest. this is why i think we could be be more optimistic that organized a issue of union and rich countries can push forward because they see that d. c, the future. otherwise have you fall behind. so like electric battery and all use electric, car, hydrogen technology. so they are rushing very fiercely to be in the forefront rather than falling behind. so did there's something kind of a coincidence of the industrial interest where the climate change interest. so i think that is a kind of a more optimistic now, i think you mentioned the n

next conversation in the next part of the program, do you think there is friction between europe and the unitedtates? europe and china? europe and the rest of the world as we start to see europe doing what it wants to do, imposing carbon border taxes and trying to set the rules? judy: we are going to see complex. interestingly, china realizes the problem. the europeans have a problems with china and chancellor merkel knows that climate change is a concern. but frankly, if europe wants to have this, they cannot do it without extending a globally. it is extremely complicated and we are going to have lots of tension with all the more reason for dialogue. europe cannot be an island on this issue. alix: hang tight with us, you are sticking with us and up next we will talk about president joe biden and angela merkel signaling those warmer times for the two countries. but nord stream 2 is still front and center. this is bloomberg. ♪ alix: live from new york. i'm alix steel with guy johnson. this is the european close. president joe biden and german chancellor angela merkel are signaling warmer ties be

stocks in europe are doing well. stocks in the united states, doing pretty well. pe, the second-best half since 1998. could we top that in the second half? let's talk about the second half of the game. abigail doolittle is looking ahead. abigail: similar to what you were just talking about with stoxx 600 having its best first half since 1998. if you take a look at the energy sector here, up 46%, on pace for the best year ever six months in. clearly, the reflationary trade is happening in a big way. banks, about 25% up. one part that is not playing in this risk on trade, the credit part of the risk asset. the bloomberg aggregate credit index down just a little bit this year. it's interesting it, whether or not that is a sign of some storm clouds or on the other hand, you have trades so tight that perhaps all is well. we do know when we have a banner first half, going back all the way to world war ii, the s&p 500 has gained more than 4.5%, it has led to at least an 8% gain in the second half. right now, history suggest the rest of 2021 shall be good. i was talking ab

china will be different to the rest of the world and the united states, probably even europe.ly legal different setups in europe when it comes to data and data privacy. i think we have to deal with different ecosystems. we are working with different technology players on both sides , in china and the u.s. we are big enough to ramp up those skills

there's so much separating the transatlantic relationship more than just the ocean between the united states and europe. and specifically germany. you have many acute issues like the north spring to pipeline, like the ongoing corona pandemic, and the question of cove it vaccine wavers patent wavers the united states. joe biden is for it, angular michael is against it. and then you have, and of course the travel, the travel, you know, americans can go to germany and the european union but, but, but the reverse is not true. and angle america and the european union more, more widely speaking. we like to see that change and of course the big issues, number one being climate change. and of course china, russia hash, the state of democracy in a very kind of last the big picture sort of way. so there's a lot of issues both in the near term and an acute sense and long term going forward, you know, looking at the next many years, in fact, beyond angle, america and even beyond. joe biden. no matter how many terms, one or 2 he might serve, and i just want to let you know, and our viewers know that we'll have a lo

the biggest purveyors of this equipment relate to liberal democracies, israel, countries in europe and the united states since one of the interesting things from the fusion of this technology is that it is not just originated in china, it comes from a variety of wonders and punters, many of which are democracies themselves. >> 's privacy a thing of the past? >> i think at least as we have conceived of it, i think the idea that smart phones which are essentially devices for surveillance in one form or another, monetization reasons or law enforcement or political reasons but the fact that they are ubiquitous as we rely upon digital life devices and internet to conduct all of our business, i think that has to change our conception about what is guarded from intrusive eyes of others and the fact is that so much of this now in our data is out there in the open, we can still come up with ways to construct framework, transfer the about how our data is being used so in that sense i don't think we should give up in terms of privacy but the sense that we can create a line between private and public, i thin

begin with the endings you really stress the importance again of the relationship between europe and the united states. saying that these 2 countries are these 2 parts. europe is not a country, as we know are so important for each other and there isn't anything else than europe and the united states would share steeper commitment and values. it was a celebration of science when the president of john hopkins introduced her. he's trust the fact that she is a scientist that she believes in facts. that's not true for every word liter as we know. and that the university system in the united states kind of copied the german system. i'm actually self was referring to whom boyd as the grandfather of the idea that teaching and research has to come together in a university. so that was the celebration i shall say, of love between germany and the united states and a true commitment that science matters. her handling of the pandemic in as a feature in very prominently absolutely. i mean i'm going to, i'm actually from the very beginning, i think of a cold 19 made it really clear that she takes it seriously

contortions of telecommunication firms, whether those are built by trusted providers from the united states, europe or japan on the one hand or built by unfortunately on trusted providers from china from the data fest and data subversion of the chinese commonest party is a strategic question for the coming years because enormous amounts of our private data or consumer data and scientific and governmental will be flowing through these for years to come. >> i want to come back to you for something and then we will see if we have some questions from the online audience, can you tell us about the talents program and similar type programs, what they're aiming at and track record it seems it was a focus of the administration the last few years. >> the program overall is many talent recruitment programs that the chinese company has in the idea is to incentivize these individuals in the u.s. that are engaged in research and development to transfer the knowledge from the u.s. back to china and to do so in exchange for money, salary, for grants, lab time and other incentives. that is concerning because the t

europe. and i would hope that they would, they would commit to building something like a united states of europe because i think a, a, europe of nation states would likely return in europe to, into war levels of dysfunction and economic misery. so that's a very strong statement there and how do you feel about that? because that is the charge and we've, you know, and it was all around the break. the debate here is that the brussels wants too much power and it is tried to one size fits all. i mean, it was at least the claims that were made by the briggs. it tears ok. now i ask you, did they learn anything from it? because there are there, we've all agreed on this program and said euro skepticism is on the rise. what is exactly means is very unclear to me because it seems to me, it is more of a demand for reform and not to got the entire project. go ahead, allen. well, i do understand the letter being signed by the circle populous parties. like you is the bull, you integrate, the less efficient it becomes gross becomes less. most of its major policies of fail, the years fail, europe stagnate. 100 i

so on the one hand you have economies like the united states here in europe, really starting to pick back, people are traveling again. people are taking flights. industry is starting to web back up that requires more oil. on the other hand, you still do have a lot of concern and questions over the corona, virus economies like india, indonesia have been hit really hard by that. so opec is really trying to find middle ground here. they're going to start boosting well production, but they're going quite slowly. and even by the end of the year, they are, and the end of next year, they likely will still be producing millions of barrels per day. less than they had before the pandemic. you heard from chelsea, delaney at the franklin stock exchange for us. thank you very much. instead of clogging roads with gas guzzling trucks, some industrial companies are moving their consignments to rail. and they're investing millions of euros in their very own tracks. it's not just a greener option. it's also opening new business opportunities for the likes of german firm, so bothers these tank wagons a

in the countries that believe you are in a trailer in russia, we can also include the united states, western europe, your conditions are pretty good for the majority of the people. sure. you know, somebody for somebody is richer, but overall there's no famine. for the most part, there's no war stress. yes, it exists, but it's also manageable. it's not comparable to was people experience, let's say 2 centuries ago when they had to bury pretty much every child that they gave birth to have to work around the flow. so i'm not trying to downplay the influence of the socio economic factors, but i, my concern is that with, with all the possibilities that people, me may actually be asking a little bit less of their so they can actually produce because at the end of the day, regardless of whom were blame, if the person who suffering from a decent year from suffering from the diabetes was quite literally bearing the consequences to could come back to the aiden story again here. and there are people actually putting on weight during this pandemic. and then they're under stress because a losing their job, a lo

, which is represented by the institution themselves, which would like to build kind of a united states of europewhich we definitely oppose. and there's another approach which is now in the minority, i have to admit, and this is represented by hungary as well. and this approach says we need strong european union, but a strong european union must be based on strong member states. and that's why we do not support any other competencies to be brought to brussels from the member states. and this is the core of the issue, this is core of the debate. we do have among ourselves, but i would like to underline again the goal is to make the european union stronger and definitely brussels thinks differently in this regard. yes, i mean, the philosophical debate about the future of europe is something that's been going on for decades. and i dare say, it will go on for decades more. but there is a much more day—to—day problem here, which you as foreign minister, as chief diplomat of your country, you have to wrestle with. and that is that many eu leaders, that is heads of state as well as the institutions them

of this equipment relate to liberal democracies come places like israel, countries in europe as well as the united states. one of the interesting things with it comes to the diffusion of this type of technology is it's not just, it doesn't originate from china. it comes from a variety of vendors, a right of countries many of which are democracies themselves. >> host: so steven feldstein, is privacy a thing of the past? >> guest: i think at least as we have conceived of it probably is. i think the idea that with smart phone which are essentially devices for surveillance in one form or another, whether for monetization reasons or for law enforcement or political reasons, but the fact that those are ubiquitous, that we rely upon digital life and digital devices and the internet of things to do, to really conduct all of our business, i think that has to change our conception about what is guarded unintrusive eyes of others. the fact is that so much of this now in our data is out there in the open. we can still come up with ways to construct frameworks and transparency about how our data is being used.

reporter: the study compared specific brain injuries involving thousands of patients in the united states and europeand ucsf radiology professor says the patterns stayed consistent with some injuries producing more problems, others less. >> even though it's going to stay here with the blood, there's a big area of bleeding. the patients do -- they tend to do well over type. >> reporter: both doctors are excited about the power of a recently approved rapid blood test that can identify markers associated with concussions and traumatic brain injury. >> prelimmary indications say it is a good testify and helpful. >> reporter: potentially screening out patients who may not need a ct scan and associated radiation making sure others who might have slipped through receive the scans now proven to be be a fourful tool in treating concussions. and researchers are look at patterns in specific types head injuries to identify which are more likely to produce higher risks of brain damage. >>> still ahead, bay area dodged a bullet when it comes to what if you could push a button and less carbon would be put into the

conservatives on one side liberals on the other, and increasing cultural and political divide in the united states and europe ledgers that us back collective of musicians and artists is sewing seeds of descent in cuba, in an effort to destabilize its government the group in question is called the sun is see, the movement is made up of a cube, wrappers, musicians, artists, and journalists, washington has allegedly spend millions of dollars on them to gain sway among cuba, marginalized youth and movement. members of spoken out and supportive american sanctions, the former president trump, and even military intervention in cuba. earlier we spoke to the author of the investigation editor in chief of the grey zone, max blumenthal, what amazed me aside from the fact that the wall street journal in rolling stone have credited this group of artists and performers with providing in their words the catalyst for the day of protests we saw in cuba was that the national endowment for democracy in arm of the u. s. government, that bank roles regime change operations abroad actually laid out an explicit strategy in 2009 to

islanders who were targeted, not the majority of overstate who were at the time from the united states or europe . a formal government apology for past injustices is rare in new zealand. it has to meet strict criteria, including the victims being definable as a distinct group that continues to suffer hom, connected to those historic events. today. many of those affected feel a sense of shame about what happened and they're reluctant to talk about it even to their families. you would have just felt like you were trampled on in some way emotionally, spiritually, many, many ways. and i think that has been answered generational. the polynesian pent is welcome the apology, which have been campaigning for for decades. and they hope it will help people of the pacific islands move on. the al, sustain proud. because of who we are and achieve the very, very basic and simple goals for why we even came to this country. that's all we want. they also hope saying, sorry will help build trust between the island communities and the government and insure future generations feel secure in new zealand. even if the

but look, if somebody�*s quite comfortable working in the united states or europe, their family's establisheder is clear. the majority of all those africans that are out in the diaspora are often not willing to come back because they're scared to come back, because there is no platform for them to come and evolve. now, those platforms are being set up. it's not always about money, it's not always about comfort. i can tell you that many africans in the diaspora want to come back, but if they are given the right platform, they will come back. and then that's what we are trying to provide so that that becomes the incentive that they need to return and contribute to the continent development. all right. let's look at the wider issue, though, of the brain drain from africa, particularly in terms of scientists and health personnel, which is something which has generated a lot of debate during the covid pandemic when we've seen africa's health facilities at breaking point because of a lack of staff. and yet, and a recent 0ecd study has said that recruitment of health personnel from low— and middle i
