e.u. workers in britain and vice versa european union is pushing to ensure that e.u. citizens enjoy the greatest possible freedom of movement even after breaks it but they may have to fight to get what they want. 3.2000000 equal citizens are currently living and working in the u.k. and according to the withdrawal agreement they'll have residency rights for the rest of their lives the same applies to the 1200000 brits living in the e.u. states but there may be obstacles for new arrivals in the future after all ending freedom of movement was one of the main reasons why many brits supported that is there's a chance for other countries. mclucas this coming from about forced and this could actually present an opportunity for the european union and because if britain decides it no longer wants to invite over skilled workers then it's important for a country like germany to be an attractive option for them because we may very well be facing a shortage of workers in the coming years i would be more than what i would name and in the. among other countries germany is hoping it

e.u. also they can attract domestic workers from the from the u.k. to do the g.e. these jobs or they're going to have to buy a whole load of robots if we're talking about greater automation which. and i got there so i think yeah right all the other option is going to create an even greater opportunity for people to bring in these people smugglers to bring in people who are desperate who then work without any protection it's wolf a no money in a no money but hardly any wages but no protection and that's a real concern it is a concern because as we hear many times the market does find a way to get the cheap labor in even if it's illegal how likely but there's always a think you can well tonight kelly she is hosting conflict zone a program where politicians and other people in power are in the hot seat to answer tough questions the topic tonight the rise of the far right here in germany syria's guest is a member of parliament she represents chancellor merkel's party the c.d.u. he says that the party should stick to the center to the middle if it wants to defeat the fo

deal say that not enough protections have been put in place for these kinds of workers bring in barbara on this again is the e.u. a bit lax on these issues you think. absolutely because all these provision about social rights labor rights labor conditions the environment and so on they're written into the contract that is always the case but so far the e.u. has never enforced anything they have they have never suspended deal because a partner country wouldn't implement these provisions and wouldn't sort of stick to the deal so they are lex on it and they really have to decide whether they want to be a beacon for fundamental rights worldwide or on the other hand they want to be sort of your favorite tree frater and so so far the free traders are winning the game and that seems to be the case again in this vietnam deal. in strasburg another man of him in the studio thank you very much. i know that some of the other stories making headlines around the world today organizers of the mobile world congress the world's biggest event in the field of mobile communication are discussing whether it is crap the event over f

e.u.'s free movement policy, prioritizining high skilled workers to a points-based system, with no exceptions european citizens. it is a single, global immigration system. it does n not discrimininate one basis of what country you originate from, but focuses on skills you can briring to the u. as a a result, the numbers will come down. it is the purpose. we are not going to get into the targets at all. reporter: points will be granted based on specific skills, qualifications, salaries, and standard of english. pieces will only bee given to people who pass a certain ceiling. but business groups say there is already a shortage of labor and the new rules could lead to a deficit of staff in care, construction, and hospitality industries, which would undermine the u.k. economy. >> companies are already investing heavily in homegrown talent across the u.k., but critical labor shohortages mean firms will still need access to overseas workers at all skill levels. reporter: a dififferent initiate will cover scientists, graduates, national health service workers, and those in the agricultural sector. t

e.u. especially germany which huge demand for workers from sex is that extremely underpaid in act country and the population germany's also going down but they're also welcoming people into germany do you think that is the secret is to being able to be open as well as your population going down at the same time that of welcome people into your country. i mean germany has learned the hard way i mean germany had 2 relatives took the policy at the time when we had a large winter towards remain young bulgaria and some other countries and then it basically learned that good that book relation it will require more and more people and then it opened up to the point of restricting down almost okra tyria and from march this year you will have even less critic for getting into germany if you're a skilled worker and this is one lesson germany had to learn what what happens in return is that you have the population or higher big ration from the western balkans because everyone knows this so if you have elderly or perennials in germany that are in great need for care sector let's say then you will hav

e.u. citizens get preferential treatment there are 3 things that incoming workers will need a job offer from an approved employer that job must be at the right skill level and speak english as a must. but workers with all of these will still need something else to make up the points maybe they've completed all their school qualifications maybe they're over $33000.00 or above the going rate for their fields or maybe there's a shortage of workers in their occupation. but there's an issue with shutting out all the highly skilled and many business leaders appointing it out so low skilled or low paid jobs are essential for the economy and the u.k. doesn't have enough of its own citizens willing to do them shut out the immigrants who've been feeding them for decades and you've got a problem if we have a turning off of any access to that lower paid end of the job market care workers laborers on construction sites hospitality workers waitresses. kitchen workers food processors we will potentially see some business is unable to expand and grow and it will affect the growth rate of the economy. the ho

transportation or stuff that they transport for them in order to get these workers to come back to their work post as possible and so if the e.u. chamber of commerce in china now is essentially saying there's much more trouble ahead what does that mean for these businesses already facing difficulty. well it means more job losses and leave without pay because nobody knows how long this situation will last and it goes very closely with the people of the outbreak and the chinese government's senior medical advice that said that this outbreak is hitting a peak this month and will probably end by april april is the key month for many small business to survival because their cash flows are really tight right now if the government cannot control that it seems by april and more and more business would have to move their production line outside of china to places like taiwan south korea and japan and by then we probably will see the world moving into a completely new paradigm. correspondents old cyan in taipei so thank you very much tesla has been stopped in its tracks the electric car companies plans to build a huge gigafactory near b

e.u. rules would mean it becomes a very attractive no regulation no business tax zone with watered down workers' rights econd to singapore poaching business from the block the key issue here is around level playing field issues there is no way the e.u. will ever sign up to a trade deal that allows tariff free quota free and frictionless access to u.k. goods coming into the e.u. if there isn't a level playing field in terms of how they're produced because that would be unfair competition is there another way well then it gets tricky where into a sector by sector deals in some of those deals we've got a strong hand like fishing rights in others like financial services no deal could be the end of the city's dominance as banks and firms need to frankfurt to ensure they can still operate in europe. but it all has to happen quickly as well because the clock is ticking and if the fine details aren't done in time you guessed it we crash out i hope that's made everything and little clearer. to discuss the constitutional implications breaks that we're now joined by international barrister julian millions

e.u. issued a strong rebuke of the cambodian government treatment of workers and the political opposition but at the same time they acknowledge that some progress in those areas has been made and they said they are committed to the ongoing economic and social development of this country so clearly they were concerned that a full withdrawal of this agreement could have a major impact on the economy of cambodia in particular the garment sector which is really the backbone of the economy here employing around 800000 people so under these new mages some footwear and garments are targeted but not all from the cambodian government side they may well see this as a partial victory we've certainly seen a lot of public defiance from the government in the lead up to this announcement in fact on tuesday the day before the announcement the prime minister one since it is said that they would not bow to foreign demands among those demands from the e.u. that the banned opposition party is reinstated and its leader has his treason case against him dropped will so there is no sign of those things happening

e.u. citizens get preferential treatment. there off 3 things that incoming workers will need a job offer from an approved employer that job must be at the right skill level and speak english is a must. but workers with all of these will still need something else to make up the points maybe they've completed all their school qualifications maybe over $33000.00 or above the going rate for their fields or maybe there's a shortage of workers in their occupation. but there's an issue with shutting out all the highly skilled and many business leaders appointing it sounds skilled or low paid jobs are essential for the economy and the u.k. doesn't have enough of its own citizens willing to do them shut out the immigrants who've been feeding them for decades and you've got a problem if we have a turning off of any access to that lower paid end of the job market care workers laborers on construction sites hospitality workers waitresses. kitchen workers food processors we will potentially see some business is unable to expand and grow and it will affect the growth rate of the

that deal can't be struct struck we also have to maintain environmental standards workers' rights and ensure the rights of e.u. citizens in the u.k. and indeed u.k. citizens who live elsewhere in europe there's a huge amount of work still to do and the liberal democrats as we always have been will be at the forefront of ensuring the closest possible relationship that we can now forward to in the weeks and months ahead doing with governments doing the right thing and preparing for full border checks on the goods as has been reported powerfully trying to take a sort of hard line in the gauche ations to get as much a guess as possible out of the other side. i think the government is taking a rather reckless approach to the upcoming trade agreement i think they somehow think that by playing hardball with the e.u. they're going to bend but actually the fact is the european union has a long history now of being an incredibly tough negotiator and people who are negotiating with the e.u. they know that they have a tough partner is one of the reasons why i don't all trump doesn't like the e.u. that much because he kno

e.u. is that the case against can be dropped and it wants better protection and rights for workers in factories according to leaked documents from the european commission in parliament but likely to walk for a partial withdrawal of the agreement rather than a complete cancellation with one of the main concerns being job losses and communities like this in the e.u. may also be trying to limit geopolitical space for china which is becoming increasingly assertive in southeast asia according to a cambodian government official chinese president xi jinping urged cambodia's prime minister hun sin not to bow to european demands when they met in beijing last week but china will. also lose if the trade agreement is canceled most of the investors are from china. imports of the roman fear from china it seems certain the e.u. will want to follow through and punish the cambodian government to some extent when the final announcement is made any changes to the tariff free trade deal would come into force in 6 months which could have a big impact on hundreds of thousands of cambodian workers when hey al jazeera
