N. Diplomats of remarked to me what this shows about power and influence among external actors in the middle east and they say that there are parallels with the situation in syria clearly they are different conflicts but in syria you had a un led process and yet most of the developments of come as a result of the russians and the turks along with the iranians the socalled a start up process in syria now what one diplomat described as the astonished the cation over libya again you have russia and turkey which are on different sides of the argument which support different groups coming together to try and come up with an outcome that suits their interests and pushing out of the way the United Nations the e. U. And the United States i got this comment on this from the u. N. Secretary general spokesman the u. N. Cannot operate in a vacuum right what is always important whether its in syria or libya and those are Different Cases right i mean. Whether its in syria or libya. A political process cannot move forward without the will of the people. Being represented but also we need to be realistic without involvement of not only of the parties who are fighting on the ground but of the parties outside of the country who have an influence what is important is that. What is happening in moscow feeds in to berlin and if general have to signs the cease fire agreement that remains a big if that is the next stage a summit in berlin at leader level but that summit now will effectively be a rubber stamp of the diplomacy crafted by russia and turkey.

President donald trump has long accused china of keeping the a one at low levels to get an unfair trade advantage like telling fischer in washington tell us more about this concession. Well if we flash back 4 years ago when donald trump was campaigning to be president he said that as far stay in the white house see with designate china to be a currency manipulator because he believed it gave it an unfair advantage particularly over the United States and particularly over the balance of trade well he did eventually get around to it but it was just 5 months ago and at the height of a trade war between the United States and china you remember that both exchange tired of the u. S. Imposed tariffs on a lot of chinese goods donald trump said that they were coining in billions of dollars from the chinese treasury through this thats not how tablets work its actually the ordinary person in the United States that was paying those tariffs in fact one experiments that each family in the United States ended up being around 800. 00 a year more because of Donald Trumps trade war but we know hes about to sign an agreement that will happen in washington on wednesday donald trump will sit down with chinas vice premier and the 2 of them will put together this signature on the farce part of what donald trump says will be an extensive trade document as a little appetizer before that the u. S. Treasury department is no said that it doesnt consider china to be a treasury manipulator and in fact theres no forcible commitment to making sure that the competitive fluting of the chinese currency so this is a big step it sure is that the relationship between china and the United States is actually cooling down because it was very hot for a long time there and people were suspecting there wouldnt be a deal and its been reflected in the stock market as well things going well or none day their dollar trump in fact making reference to that is for a sporting event from the white house just a few hours ago but there are critics and of course you would expect it to come from the democratic side of Congress Chuck schumer who is the leader of.
