to you adrian so bring us up to speed on the story here of the chibok girls and what we know right now. reverend it's almost four years ago that those girls were abducted and you might recall that about two years for about two years there was little information at all about the whereabouts of these two hundred nineteen girls despite the international outcry despite the bring back our girls campaign that was happening abroad but also here in nigeria only in october two thousand and sixteen and march two thousand and seventeen was the time when we got big news when there were the mass releases of about one hundred chibok girls it was a deal brokered by the swiss government and that actually chief that's on the other hands there way off issues who said that in exchange for the release of the girls the government had to pay a substantial amount of money and had to release higher ranking book fighters and while this is of course very worrisome especially if you think of the future of the terror group what they could use these resources for and it was also a welcome development not only for

adrian: brent, it is a must for years ago that those girls were abducted. might recall that about two years -- for about two years, there was little information at all about the whereabouts of these 219 girls, despite international outcry and the "bring back our girls" campaign abroad, but also here in nigeria . only in october 2016 and march 2017 was the time we got big news -- when there were mass releases of about 100 of the girls. it was a deal brokered by the swiss government, and they achieved that. on the other hand, there were officials that said that in exchange for the release of the girls, the government had to pay a substantial amount of money, and had to release high-ranking boko haram fighters. while this is very worrisome, especially if you think of the future of the terror group, it was also a welcome development not only for the parents of the more than 100 children who were still missing, but for everybody living in the northeast of nigeria, because it really showed the willingness of negotiating, the willingness of talking on both sides.

adrian i mean you are talking about that invested investigation that donald trump has commissioned and obviously we still have to wait for the outcome of that but in the meantime there has to be one would guess some sort of face saving exercise for for china in this is there any way that china can react and at the same time not jeopardize the deals that it signed with the u.s. . yes i think that's the big question isn't it is china going to retaliate and if so how will it retaliate you know china has big investments in the united states it's one of the biggest investors in the u.s. economy and of course the united states has major investments here in china boeing starbucks general motors so there is i think an acceptance by experts that you speak to here in china that in a sense neither country can afford to have a full blown trade war because their economies are so mutually dependent on one another what you are going to see i think in the coming weeks months and years ahead is increased trade friction area brown live for us in beijing adrian thank you very much indeed. police say d.n.
