the wto is not going anywhere. there are a lot of other countries deeply committed to preserving it and abiding by those rules but i think you will also inevitably see countries forming more bilateral and regional blocks again as a way to insulate themselves from economic coercion, no matter what the source might be. >> and mentioned you used to work at the white house and you were there during the end of the bush years and the start of the obama years and he worked on capitol hill as well. trade is normally the purview of congress but the president does get a lot of leeway when it comes to matters of national security so you know, the way that this instance of trade tariffs is being handled invites a lot of question. do you foresee legal challenges to the executive orders on tariffs? >> i foresee legal challenges but i don't see congress intervening. as you say, it is congress that has constitutional responsibility over trade and the orders trump signed on saturday represent the most significant overreach on trade

and yet with the wto they still have favored nation status.t should we do about that and how do we re-examine that and try to figure out how to right size that relationship as well? >> senator, i think that is really important because i think if you look historically, granting china trade relations is one major cause of why we are in the situation we are in now with unbalanced trade. i think it is important for congress and the administration to work together about how that looks going forward. in fact it is something that the president put in his trade policy memorandum, specifically said consider the legislative options related to trade relations. there are a lot of ways to go about it. obviously you want to make sure that the economy is doing well or we have growth, but we want to make sure we are not dependent on china for strategic goods that are farmers aren't so dependent on them that they can be victims of economic coercion. i would love to have a conversation with you about that. >> from my perspective, our first weapon for national s

then we have bodies like the wto presumed to exercise authority over trade laws and limit our abilityward we need to restructure this we need to have a pragmatic trade policy where we are looking sometime sector by sector economy wide often not bilateral basis how can we have very competitive terms of trade between us and the rest of the world? how can we emphasize our area as competitiveness, technology, agricultural, and be able to take advantage of that in a very particular way as opposed to just having a default trade policy. >> i think also we had a good conversation when you came by the office which i appreciated, and i think you agree we can't tariff our way to prosperity that there are other policies that we need to preserve to pursue to drive american growth to protect our national security and we need to approach domestic international politics in a strategic way, trade as part of that. we have other business to conduct around the world. and here also. so for me this includes supporting american manufacturing, pursuing trade policies at the same time we are doing that to ser

and if so, what role does the wto have? >> well, it may well prove ultimately to be a violation of the rules as judged by the wto. but usually these cases that go to the wto can drag on for a very long time. sometimes they become quite arcane, and in the end they typically have not that much effect on the outcomes. so i think it could be perhaps a moral victory for china eventually, but i don't think it's going to make a lot of difference. >> yeah. and the expectation is president trump will be having a discussion, we believe, with china's president here in the near term to discuss those tariffs. let's move on. because still out there is the notion that president trump could impose tariffs at some point in the not too distant future against european union countries. what is the current status of european trade with the u.s, and what kind of impact could that have on our economy if the president follows through there? >> well, it could have a sizable impact. but of course, our trade with europe is nowhere near as large as th

it also says it is filing a complaint with wto over the us tariffs. on monday as the news broke that the 25% tariffs our north america business correspondent michelle fleury is in the town of windsor, ontario, where she has been getting reaction to these latest developments. tonight they are being restocked. may be permanent. to amazon and netflix, two american companies, she isn't planning to sign back up. it's like the whims of someone who changes from day to day. at laval, they make parts used in other goods. that 50 years of success came from both sides working together, creating relationships that took and now knowing that that relationship was as fragile as it is and that one person's agenda can change that whole relationship and change the course of a business that's been around for half a century hurts a lot. just across the river. but for how long? and will be implementing a $1.3 billion dollar plan — trudeau also said canada would appoint a canada — us joint strike force to combat concordia university. the threat of tariffs at bay. that the tariffs were coming, i'm not sure

is violating the wto, whereas the u.s.is, can we expect that trump will give concessions on tariffs, if european leaders agreed to do more in ukraine? brendan: another thing we have learned in the four weeks since donald trump has been inaugurated, geopolitics is all intertwined with his trade strategy. it is no secret, he announced those before the munich conference, the trade barriers. it is all wrapped up in the equation for donald trump. whether that comes to the negotiating table specifically with ukraine, those tariffs, is another question but that is hanging over the heads of european leaders. they could be facing not only a real war on their eastern flank but also a trade flick on the western one. lizzy: we had the bundesbank president saying germany would be particularly hit hard by these new u.s. tariffs. would mertz have a similar response to scholz? brendan: it is the auto tariffs that germany is really worried about. automakers are struggling anyway, and that would really hurt them. lizzy: brendan murray, as w

again, you know, the wto, the world trade organization was a, you know, a very active body adjudicating disputes prior to president trump's first term. but during his during his first term, he bypassed the wto and made it more made it essentially obsolete. it neutered its effectiveness. so since then, it really has not been at all very helpful in helping adjudicate these disputes that that arise. so, you know, again, it's another symbolic move, just like the the step they took to investigate google for antitrust violations. you know, google has stepped back from china in a significant way already. their operations are relatively small. but, you know, by doing this, they're signaling, you know, their intent to, you know, push back if they get pushed. >> yeah. trump is expecting to speak with xi jinping in the next 24 hours. what are you looking for to come out of that call? >> well, i'm hopeful that they, you know, figure out a way to get through this without imposing broader based tariffs. you know, you know, if it's broad based tariffs, the u.s. and china's relationship trading relatio

that procedure is already in a sense stymied by the fact that there was no appellate body working, the wto not been able to function effectively, so retaliatory tariffs are across the board is going to lead to this amazing trade war that i do not think we have seen ever in this current situation, and the impact on developing countries especially is going to be epic, because of the fact that there is a huge dependence on the level of imports, and therefore if you have inflation, rising prices, at the ability of these developing countries to function effectively in a global trading market is going to be significantly impacted. tom: this is fascinating. one of my key takeaways is the rhetoric already even if some of these tariffs have not been implemented. we have them implemented on china but has not come through from canada and mexico, but the rhetoric alone is changing out corporate and others are thinking about their trade routes. thank you for your analysis. pamela, executive director of the international trade center. eu leaders are to call for increased flexibility in their funding rul

advantage of america by aiming their trading barriers at us, there is no international court to fix it worm wto is a bufbust and in bed with chinese. president trump will try to fix this by applying a reciprocal tariff benchmark. this point we don't yet know how far or y wide policy will go, or how much in tariff revenues might be raised, they are important questions, yet unanswered. in today's pressure i thought mr. trump used a moderate low key approach. was not really bashing anyone, he focused his remarks on how the industrial heartland and our whom economy will pe become bigger and more productive. stock market rose 400 on the news. no action will be taken it will april one after a review, reporters kept nagging president trump about inflationary tariffs, they are wrong. exporters will bear the largest burden because they will be forced to slash their prices to sell in america. plus, export country currency will fall, while u.s. dollar will rise. all that is counter inflationary. all that said, all right, i strongly support trade reciprocal it is a -- reciprocity, it say noblenition, i wou

china, since 1999 when they joined the wto has never abided by the rules in any single year and they certainly don't abide by i.p. law. and clearly the fentanyl issue has been outstanding for years. in addition to that, from a manufacturing point of view, a company we know well apple does a massive amount of job creation and manufacturing there. i think the china deal is more complex and if u.s. companies never get i.p. reciprocation it is an economic war that is unique. an a.i. war and may become a military war one day. china is just completely different. they need a lot more squeezing than just this. i thought 400% would be a good place to start. you can't compare these three situations. they're all different but china is a big, big, big problem and i'm not sure this is going to be resolved on a weekend deal. >> dana: i didn't know about that tax loophole that allowed you to buy a lot of things from china under a certain amount of money. that could maybe hurt china or am i reading too much into that? >> there is a law there. the biggest problem is if you manufacture there in the la
