saying that obviously this is an unprecedented situation a health crisis as well but the european union the european union needs agreement of the european identity needs it considering that some countries felt abandoned by the e.u. when the coronavirus struck do you agree with president macross on that yes for all the reservations that maybe from the frugal for that actually any kind of sense of european identity needs a deal to be struck. i do look i think the macro team and the elites they see very very clearly that the european union has value in response to this pandemic writs and remain legitimate in the eyes of european public opinion at the moment what we've affectively seen in response to prove that 19 is national that all responses and i think emanuel is right in his assessment but the e.u. level needs to provide a certain level of our you want in order to remain legitimate now i think there's a high degree of alignment between paris between berlin angela merkel has also moved quite substantially as well as with brussels in order to to put this proposal on the table but involves a lot of borrowin

is that that they're hoping from some type of jester from the european union many are saying that this is a way of asking for the european union to suspend sanctions the european union 1st impose sanctions on but it's way back in 2017 accusing the country of not respecting human rights of not promoting democracy when it is hoping that some type of a gesture a will happen will have an impact on this on lifting sanctions but most of the people we have spoken to say that this is highly unlikely right and so they make a gesture from the u.k. high court on this decision to refusing to release a $1000000000.00 worth of gold bullion has there been any reaction from the reader or government on the. well that's correct a u.k. high court voted against venezuela decided not to released over a $1000000000.00 in gold from the venezuelan government to their state the united kingdom have said that if the president of venezuela let's not forget about what's been happening with why the. u.k. and other countries are saying that he's there to read the legal representatives of the president the real president of venezuela watch out for him minist

euros in grants which means that the money will be borrowed on the markets by the european union backed by the european union and will not need to be repaid by those countries that something that was was very controversial but then again countries like italy spain and greece are saying do not add to our debt load you know you would just be making it worse for us so this is something that was pushed very hard by the team of france and germany chancellor merkel and president mccaughan and as you just heard those 2 leaders came out and said that this is an historic deal that will allow those countries to rebuild you've also got the 7 year budget and one thing that was very important in this in this these negotiations was that for the 1st time there will be a link to rule of law that means that there will be a process in the contained within the budget that if countries are seen to be abusing the democratic values of the european union there will be a procedure by which. the payments can be suspended and a process in vote to see whether they deserve to continue receiving these funds from the european union so th

the european commission, he is -- since february 2020. our conversation today will be about the economy of the european union and about the european union's economic policy response to the covid-19 crisis, we will also touch upon the european union, european commissions, broader economic policy agenda as we hopefully recover from the crisis, it has been evolving fiscal institutions, its management of the european macro economy. it should be an interesting conversation, obviously of particular importance given the worldwide economic crisis we are suddenly found ourselves in. let me introduce my guests today, director general for economic and financial affairs in the european commission, prior to his current job, he was director general for structural reform support a topic we will touch on a little bit as well i imagine, prior to that he was deputy director general for economic and financial affairs. he also worked extensively on the so-called -- fund which we will talk about as well. anyway, with that introduction out of the way, i want to start out with talking about the way in which the crisis has unfolded over the past few months in yo

it establishes a true insurance mechanism to where countries receive grants from the european union, and the european unionrows money in the capital market. borrowing for grants is something that was not foreseen in the eu, and now it exists. a president has been established, and it has paid out . -- countries hit hit the hardest economically will receive the largest part. in that sense it is a big deal, and it is normal to take four days to come to that deal given how new it is. deal, whativen this will europe look like in five years? if this is the first step toward integration? a step: i think it is toward fiscal integration, no question about it. everybody wants to emphasize especially northern countries that this is a one-off, it is done only because of the pandemic. and it is just a one-off thing, but of course it establishes the president of long-term borrowing ent of long-term borrowing. t has beeneceden set, so if there is a new pandemic or whatever strikes five or 10 years down the road, this mechanism can be reactivated and new borrowing andbe done in the markets, we paid out to the member state

issue in their very difficult relationships with washington i agree with that the european union is key the european union has tried to keep this deal alive i don't think that they've done as much as they can but i hope that they pursue for the next several months this approach of strategic patience that will at least keep the j. c. p. away on life support. in then do you think are you worried about the u.s. on a about the russia china role. not so much i mean ok china can do something in the economy buying oil from. iran and selling things russia head has its own problems economic problems we yes we could do maybe more but we tried but you know you have to understand in our system also our big companies are so much afraid of the u.s. sanctions against them when they continue to do business with iran that we only have a few small companies and others which have exported things like medical stuff and others to to juran but it's not the same it used to be but again it's it is the hammer of the american sanctions which our companies are more afraid of they're now anything else so even if the governments will

. >> our conversation today will be the economy of the european union and about the european union economic policy response due to the covid-19 crisis. we'll also catch up on the european union, european commission's broader economic policy agenda as we hopefully recover from the crisis, its evolving fiscal institutions and its management of the european macro economy. so it should be an interesting conversation, particularly of particular importance given the worldwide economic crisis we've suddenly found ourselves in. let me introduce my guest today. as i said, director general for economic affairs in the european commission prior to his current job, he was for reform support and we'll touch on that as well, i imagine and prior to that he was deputy director general for economic and financial affairs. and did work extensively on the funds which we'll talk about as well. and anyway, with that introduction out of the way, i wanted to start out by just talking about the pay in which the crisis has unfolded over the past few months in europe and especially what actions have been taken to deal

the european union. clearly expect support from the european union and that's one of the reasons he made this trip through europe this week he was very much trying to you know close ranks within the alliance the transatlantic alliance and visited denmark because that great britain of course not a member of the european union anymore but basically saying you know we need to approach this at the united front so yes that's the expectation what have been the reactions here in the e.u. . well that you have the reaction has been mixed and the truth is that there are a plurality of views you have countries that are more hawkish like sweden you have a country like the u.k. that has really evolved i would say in the past 6 months from a position that was much more accommodationist much more hawkish and then you have countries like germany and france which really have a broad span of equities related to china 1st and foremost the trade relationship which has really taken a hit because of kogut that they really want to maintain so they are much more ability minded i would say the european commission itself brussels

the european commission, he is -- since february 2020. our conversation today will be about the economy of the european union and about the european union's economic policy response

law and boland so the relations with the european union will be even worse however the government doesn't want to destroy this relation poland needs european union the government in warsaw doesn't want to get the country out of the european union it needs the political assistance of the e.u. it needs the money from the from the e.u. however there is no chance for improvement of these relations so where does this leave poland's opposition which is decidedly pro-u. . i guess the opposition is in a very dire situation right now in poland you know the next important election is in 3 years 2023 it will be hard to keep your supporters and your members mobilized for 3 years without any election. coming coming on there will be a question asks what how did we let this happen what happened that. our candidate kind of the liberal party was not able to win so this is a ration it's hard for the for the liberal position in poland would you reckon that a majority of polls is anti european no poll is a very pro european country and all the polls say the 50 percent then come from. poland is also a very divided country very deeply divided and some people do like

the european union. onre prosperity depends also integration with the open thepean economy and european union has been good for poland. it provides development assistance. successful been a story. it has been a success story of poland realizing freedoms and free-market reforms and integration with the west which was really what poland wanted ever since world war ii. it was denied that possibility by soviet conquest, and it regained the possibility in 1989 with u.s. and european support. duda called hard right? first of all i think he represents a conservative party, but i don't think he is on the hard right edge of his political movement. he is not a member of a political party formally. he is associated with the right wing law and justice party. in poland, categories are different than in the united states. in poland, a right-wing does not just mean the regulation. it also means a higher degree of state control of the economy then we would tolerate in the united states. a lot of their biggest companies are state run. they are not government run. some of them are fairly effective and others less so. policy

the european union having problems with the rule of law and mr just stands for other poland for poland that is more often more progressive more liberal and for poland being more integrated with the european union probably maybe being a more active member of the of the european the european union and. that was you know. one of the for many of the visions we'll see at around 9 pm local time here in germany which vision i guess is going to take it's a close race it may not be immediately evident but we'll be coming back to you in the coming hours for texture and see from these posters thank you thank you. thousands of israelis have taken to the streets of tel aviv to protest against the government's economic response to the coronavirus pandemic they accuse prime minister benjamin netanyahu of not taking care of citizens' needs as unemployment source but he has pledged immediate financial aid to help those most affected by the crisis. protesters perhaps television spain brought in swear by the thousands somewhere in mass not all social distancing unemployed graduate small business owners students also. say they're being crushed financially by the coronavirus and by the government's fails response

the european union and i know mike rowe is warning that if that anti e.u. sentiment rises even further we could see in the future the disintegration of the european union the end of this european union project so he's taking a really long view but of course it is a crisis or in front of the european union right now as well because we've seen across several member states resurgence in coronavirus cases we've simply seen some targeted small lock downs in countries like spain germany and italy and france people now have to wear masks is obligatory indoors in public areas so there's real concern for the now that amount of micro is saying is also concerned what it will mean for the e.u. in the future how we reach to do you think that's a kind of an inversion point if you will because people can look in on this and what they use trying to achieve and say look you're not fit for purpose because you've got countries like greece and hungary. they've got a position they are not moving it would appear you know we've heard live reports out of athens we've been hearing from mr all band over the past what 48 hours now and you've got people like angle of merkel emanuel ma

the european union. of the big day for the european union. of the big day forthe uk, european union. ike pompeo visiting for two days. he will be meeting with romanous to borisjohnson and foreign secretary dominic rob to discuss topics such as the economic recovery from covid—19, ongoing uk us free trade negotiations and issues related to china and hong kong. nick watson, portfolio manager on the uk—based multi—asset team at janus henderson investors. for the uk is trade top of the agenda? i think the more immediate focus will be on china. the uk is finding itself in a little bit of edge or a tricky situation that of its biggest trading partner. we've seen the recent sanctions put on china, it's quite a fine balancing act keeping our biggest trading partner in the us happy and also look into the future making sure that china doesn't feel too distressed by some of the geopolitical issues that are coming up. china is not happy at all with the uk and its most recent decisions, dominic rob suspending the extradition treaty with hong kong, only yesterday announcing that in parliament. as y

french president says is if the european union fails to do this right now then its very future will be in jeopardy and what he means by that is that a failure of the european union to help the people of the european union means that many of voters might end up turning their back on the e.u. we might see a rise an anti e.u. sentiment people wondering what the e.u. is actually for especially when they've lived through such a crisis and a manner michael says that could lead to the disintegration of the e.u. itself so that's really his view it is a long term one of course so there is the immediate sense of urgency as coronaviruses continue so what amount of micros calling for is for the european union to show ambition. to not meet a spirit of compromise and ambition is to take the risk of returning to harder times and for some who are concerned about this in the end it may end up costing us even more so i will continue to fight on these subjects in particular with german chancellor angela merkel since as you know we've worked together a lot over the past days and nights. well the leaders have been meeting 3 nights they are in their 4th day of course this is all taki

coronavirus infections in the european union and in the united states is clearly going in very different directions and that certainly also is something that the european union did have to take into account, and there is actually a very good article on our website by our digital folks outlining that graphic and how that means that the european union really couldn't have come to a different decision and final thing the earliest the european union could take a look at this and make a new decision is about two weeks from now. >> it's a wake up call for the u.s. government to do something about the pandemic in this country. >>> any new coronavirus vaccine will have to work at least 50% better than the placebo in preventing infection in people. that's according to the u.s. food and drug administration. but where do we stand on the search for a vaccine. ? elizabeth cohen brings us up to that. >> reporter: half a year into the coronavirus outbreak and the best bet to stop it a vaccine. 17 teams around the world now testing covid-19 vaccines in humans according to the world health organization. three supported with u.s. funding. yet there's no published data on how

without a political union, the european union will a lwa ys union, the european union will always have right to say that politics always gets in the way but this was a chance for the european union to actually show the citizens that it can act on their own interest. my fear is it is long delayed, this lack of action will fall on the shoulders of the average citizen that will pay the price for it to. we have seen china, korea, already posting positive gdp growth numbers, while in italy we are looking at —13, —15%, and we have had the economy in trouble for six months, and nothing has been done, neither domestic nor within the eu level, and as a european, i hope for the success of the economy in the continent, but i see the institutions getting in the way of real life unfortunately. we shall keep a close eye on how those talks do progressive. think of being the programme, and as soon as we hear they are backin and as soon as we hear they are back in discussions in brussels we will let you know, and as we mentioned the leaders have been given a short breakjust to get a bit of sleep, some

political moment i'm very interested where does the european union stand on things like antitrust laws as they apply in america where does the european union see big tax. well as we've seen in the past years that european union has taken action against some behaviors of the big companies have sort of pushed back on. the fact that they make the rules and. everyone in on the planet including people in europe have to have to follow so i think what europe has shown in the past year or so is that it's. its own leadership in terms of regulation of the shown that regulation is possible. and can be very effective like the g.d.p. are the privacy and data protection regulation in europe. has effectively worked for european citizens to protect their their rights against these companies and so i think that's that's a very positive thing that it shows that it's possible to to do something. and it doesn't have to mean that that competition and innovation is trying to i think it's possible to find a balance there the area having both august's by thought i guess in belgium the new delhi have suggested that actually international of the sites will happen a

the european union. you get roughly the same population, you're talking about different countries with their own approach in the european union. we have 50 states here doing their own thing. look at this. the european union and of the united states went up the hill at the same time. the european union came down the hill and kept things flat. you look at the green line is the united states. that's just stunning and sad. how is it that the european union has had success corralling the coronavirus and in the united states right now is having such an abject failure? >> well, in general if you look at how countries are treating it in europe. much more unity of message and much less interventions. there's much more close interaction between political leadership and science and public health leadership and it's basically being treated as a problem that society can solve together. i think in the united states for reasons that are really completely unnecessary there's been too much controversy, too much politics around particular interventions, and i think in this reset that dr. fauci called for we need to get rid of that and go back
