World Service with me Alex Ritson South Korea has been dropped from Japan's list of trusted trading partners This means that Korean firms will no longer enjoy minimum trade restrictions when dealing with Japan the move has led to protests in Seoul and an angry reaction from the South Korean president moon j.n. . She wanted or even at this moment Korean government does not want a vicious cycle of tit for tat there's only one way to stop this the Japanese government must withdraw its unilateral and more into measures as soon as possible and take a path towards dialogue the spatters something will have the Americans worried that's why the secretary of state Mike Pompei was having talks with both sides musing 1st the South Korean foreign minister and then his Japanese colleague on the sidelines of the summit in Bangkok at the same time President Trump has unexpectedly announced new tariffs on Chinese goods I put it to our Asia business correspondent Christian have a Swanny that Mr Trump's latest move have created turmoil on the markets yes indeed it has it has taken investors in Asia by surprise remember it comes after the negotiations between the u.s. And China that were taking place in Shanghai this week negotiations which both sides had said had been constructive but the ramifications of the trade tariffs that President Trump has now threatened to slap on Chinese goods $300000000000.00 worth of Chinese goods on September the 1st will certainly put future negotiations at risk what we've heard from the Chinese foreign ministry today is that shed yield talks in September they say and now very much in Washington's court so it does leave a great deal of anxiety for Asian investors may. Me who have been seeing volatile stock market movements over the last 18 months or so as this trade war between the world's 2 largest economies has raged on yes sir as you say a continuing u.s. China trade war but now there's friction between Japan and South Korea what does all this mean for the regional and the wider global economy well in a nutshell it basically means that supply chains or the way that companies source their products is being put at risk if you look at the u.s. China issue many Asian companies who are an American companies that produce their goods in China and now seeing those goods going into the United States being slapped with terrorists that means they need to figure out where should they produce their products so that they won't be slapped with those taps in the future some of them are already moving out of China others are taking a wait and see approach all of this takes time and money that Japan and South Korea issue has similar applications Japanese companies selling their products to South Korea now chemical manufacturers for instance will have to get an export license from their own government South Korean firms now have to figure out where did they source these chemicals in order for them to go into components like chips and laptops and smartphones so that they can continue to provide those products to customers all of this puts the global supply chain at risk and potentially makes products more expensive for me a new courage service Warney in Singapore more than 30 years ago Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev signed a treaty which was meant to put a brake on the nuclear arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union but today the trumpet ministration has formally withdrawn from that treaty accusing Russia of developing a new type of cruise missile Moscow denies the claims the NATO secretary general. Stoltenberg has vowed to respond in a measured and responsible way we regret that Russia showed no willingness to can no steps to comply with its international obligations as a result United States decisions to withdraw from the treaty is now taking place this decision is supported by all NATO allies. Because no national agreement is affective if it's only respected by one site defense and diplomatic correspondent Jonathan Marcus what was at the heart of the dispute between these 2 nuclear powers century the American belief shared by America's NATO allies that Russia has violated the treaty in essence the Americans insist it's developed a missile the designated the 9 m. 729 whose range falls within the parameters banned by the treaty the Russians of course say they haven't but the Americans have presented the evidence to their allies they appear to have been convinced and whilst they're not happy at the demise of the treaty essentially NATO has backed the u.s. Move and the fear will be that this will lead to a new arms race where there is that concern I think it's unlikely although the Americans are eager to start developing weapons that fall into this range category they're probably more likely to be deployed in Asia if they get the go ahead the Americans the Pentagon has asked for money for these weapons programs Congress one has the Senate the moment is skeptical but I assume in course that research and development will go ahead I think of more concern is what this says about the whole regime of arms control across the board where you wherever you put the blame neither Russia nor the United States seem very eager to back arms control at the moment there's another even more an important treaty that will expire in February 2021 the New Start Treaty which limits the long range missiles that both Russia and the United States use to threaten each other's territory and if that agreement goes the way of the i.m.f. Deal and there are many people who fear that it might be looking at a situation where for the 1st time in nearly 50 years there is no to legally binding verifiable limit on the nuclear arsenals of Russia and the United States and at a time when tensions but.
