wto members approved the panel's second request.he governments of both countries have been at odds to tighten control of shipments to three materials to south korea. the items are used to make high-tech products such as semiconductors. the measusu is aimed at preventing materials from being diverted for military use. seoul originally asked the wto to establish a dispute sellalalment planl past month. the wto did not set up a panane due to opposition from japan. tokyo said it still allows exports of materials to south korea as long as there are no security problems. but under wto rules, a panel is formed after a second request unless all members are opposed. the japanese government says the wto's decision to form the dispute settlement panel is extremely regrettable. it sayss japan'n's measure is a necessary operational review to appropriately measure items that can be diverted for military purposes. south korea'a's trade ministry says seoul plans to prove it is discriminatory and run counter to wto rules. >>> for world weather, let'

if you want to avoid trade wars, then do not have a wto. the wto is still vital.eed to have its challenges solved, but i believe it is relevant and should be there to focus on 21st century issues. to trynd what we you do and help alleviate tensions on trade between the u.s. and china? ngozi: those are very big issues, and i think it goes beyond the trade. there are other political issues that involves. with respect to trade, it has to be pointed out that both the u.s. and china have benefited multilateralthe trading system has to offer, from what the wto has. and still reminding them that this is important to the world, that it can still be a win. and trying to find areas of common interest from which one can bridge that gap on the issue of trade, i think that will be a key area. i mean, if we can get the u.s. and china around the dispute settlement system, that could be the beginning. anna: thank you so much for former us today, ngozi, nigerian finance minister. thank you for speaking to us here. minutes to go until the start of the trading sector. we see stocks

the problem that wto is facing. the problem was there even before the coronavirus. it is bigger and bigger. so i think the key point is how to avoid now as reaction to this pandemic protectionist it worldwide reaction. becausea big risk consumers, companies, public leaders caners, and be tempted to push in this protectionist mode. i think that goods coming from growth are risky or something like that. i think there is a big risk for international trade. i think the biggest risk in the last 20 years. wto.e need to relaunch now there is the search for a new secretary-general. in most important point is in agreement from leaders to continue and to continue relaunching the wto and not killing it. and at the same time i think the other key points related to the american trade policy in the future, and of course it is related to who will be the next american president, because i think there will be a crossroad at the next american elections, can be a push with the election of biden. with the election of trump, i think that is a different scenario where i fear, i am afraid

now that colossal mistake of a bill not only fast tracked china's entry into the wto, but it also gutted american industry and it destroyed millions american jobs. forget almost that biden was a vocal supporter of the trans-pacific partnership. that was a deal that was so bad even hillary clinton could not defend it. she backed away from it. now, to be fair to biden, he probably didn't think too hard about any of these votes. after all, he's a senator from delaware. he was. where lots of multinational companies get their charters, and he's probably just doing as he was told, just like he will do as he gets into the white house. now, you'd think that a guy with almost five decades of political experience would be proud to tout his record. but not joe biden. after decades of doing whatever the globalists wanted and pushing for policies and treaties that gutted american jobs and drove down wages, he wants you to believe that now at the age of almost 80, he'ss finally seen the error of his ways. at long last, he'll abandon the clinton-obama internationalist playbook. so all of a sudden he tr

address these concerns, but we think it should be done within a , thelateral framework framework of the wtore willing to coordinate and cooperate on actions the u.s., but one should refrain from unilateral actions because it just escalates tensions further, and at the end of the day, negatively affects international trade and the global economy. jonathan: thank you for addressing the news of the moment, particularly this morning. if we can get you to address the news of this week for europe, a massive step forward for the continent and fiscal integration , can you walk us through next steps on when we can expect debt issuance from the european commission? when will that money be raised? mr. dombrovskis: indeed, early this week, eu summit decided on that next seven years eu budget, 2027, and on the eu economic recovery package, so this is a major step forward. we welcome this agreement of the summit. there are further procedural steps. currently we are starting negotiations with european parliament because also, european parliament needs to agree to this budget and the recovery plan. europea

state in the country and sings like usmca, he was for nafta and supporting having china go into the wtoant to get in here, what is your response? >> you put numbers in front of people that they become delusional, and alternative reality, they keep saying things that are alternative factors of the rest of us will believe them. look at the economy, the handling of the pandemic, this is the experience of the american people currently in the american president has failed us in so many ways whether it is pennsylvania or texas, he is tanking because there is no message on the white house that is hopeful or optimistic that says we will bring the country forward. you go with a litany of things about joe biden. at the end of the day the president of the united states, donald trump, has failed us and it is clear to americans whether you look at a polar a focus group or walk into a diner and ask people, this president has been a failure, the worst president in american history. americans know that and when they go to the ballot box in november they will vote him -- jillian: the economy was doing v

but in the fine point of that exact document, they say as long as it's consistent with wto rules.ame kind of globalist philosophy that we must not challenge international constitution. it will change that. jason: this is what joe biden is doing, he's a globalist in surrounding himself at the likes of elizabeth warren and th alexandria ocasio-cortez in the real liberal people, he's taken anti-law enforcement position, so many of the democrats have taken anti-ice position. these are anti-american positions. i think america is fed up with the democrats blaming america for everything. i think there absolutely fed up. if donald trump talks about the beauty and the wonder of the united states of america and believes in america and wraps himself around the flag, he will continue to thrive. steve: we have more on the race to the white house, hold that thought we have to take a short break. ♪ steve: welcome back everyone. sarah, rudely interrupted, what were you going to say? >> i was going to say it was a democratic senior leadership like nancy pelosi and others who are willing and joe bi

he pushed wto for the chinese he pushed nation and pushed nafta chuck todd said yesterday on an interviewt was kind of stunning to see joe biden trying to recreate in a economic populous that's because donald trump is an economic nationalist he's a first president that can confront china but so much more to do. right now in hong kong, president trump ought to drop hammer that is czechoslovakia in 1938 ought to cut them off from u.s. dollar and bank of china, and ought to sanction individuals, and i think he ought to angst president xi. president trump ought to throws down. president trump ought to throws down look, the chinese communist party -- they did this because he had build a strive economy and wasn't going to be pushed around. the chinese communist party coming out of that weapon lab in hiding it. we know and doctor gives you a detailed analysis of how the beijing cdc knew this back in late december early january of 2020 late des of 2019. what she told fox the other day is explosive every paper in the world picked it up. i think you're just in top of the first thing with her and ma

he was at the forefront of approving their inclusion in the wto which has led to the outsourcing of millions of manufacturing jobs from the united states, from the heartland over to china and he has been on a personal level totally compromised because of his son's activities. forget about what happened with bereavement, that is bad enough but that pales into comparison with what hunter biden did with the bank of china in alignment with the chinese communist party. >> laura: we've got to go but i can't wait to see an actual debate, if it actually happens, and have china come up. whistle-blowers sent our next guest a trove of documents about a divisive diversity training program. what he discovered is deeply disturbing. he's here to tell us what he found. plus, north carolina took the historic step of starting a reparations fund. how will that turn out? stay there. ♪ >> laura: critical race theory has made its way out of the ivory tower and into the federal government and you are paying for it. my next guest says a whistle-blowers sent him a treasure trove of documents last week about diversit

joe it kind of is in that forum by the way he led china into the wto, most favored nation, trading status stole all our secrets and jobs while his son got paid off. right now i think things are getting back to normal for this match up in the president's numbers are starting to rise. >> judge pirro: in line with that, dana, the president brought up the impeachment issue but appears to use the impeachment as the vehicle to talk about hunter biden and joe biden and the crime family. we talk about his daughter, his niece, his daughters, lots of conviction and a lot of unusual arrests that have been disposed of in unusual ways. but does not help him become the hunter biden thing or does that hurt vis-a-vis the impeachment? >> dana: i think if they could stick on something for more than an hour then maybe something would have some penetration. i think when they finally start to draw distinctions from each other it's really interesting. president trump said there has never been to candidates more opposite from each other and that might be a rare point of agreement between the two candidates. the
