End of a meeting with steel and aluminum producers he announced the planned levies we have with us the biggest steel company. That used to be bigger. But they got to be a lot bigger again. We have the Big Companies in the. Very unfairly treated by policy. Trade deals by other countries horribly treated by. Trumps primary target is china due to its massive overproduction of steel and many m which drives down global prices flooding markets with cheap products this would affect german metals exporters their Industry Association calling for the e. U. To strike back with counter measures. We certainly are about to see a lot of reactions there lets analyze them with our financial correspondent on wall street caught to the ends we saw some sharp losses on wall street directly after the announcement so clearly the markets are not taking this very well. Well wall street obviously got called off guard with this announcement yes there has been talk about terrorists for quite some time but investors obviously did not expect some action and then also those terrorists a sleeper as a lot of experts have expected we did see steel stocks for example with a huge increase but more Companies Use steel or companies producing those and thats why overall we saw some big declines at the low of the day blue chips lost almost six hundred points oh yes the reaction is quite intense considering whats really at stake is this only about possibly having higher prices for aluminum and steel youre right i mean first of all the Steel Industry is not that export important for the overall as u. S. Economy and anymore especially if you compare it to a couple of years or decades ago and then also a lot of companies here in the u. S. They use the mystic steel or aluminum anyhow but there is this concern of inflation and we had higher tariffs on limber and tougher for example from canada a year ago now we have still a medium so thats whats next so there is this overall fear that we might see more protectionism for this government and this is one of the main reasons why we saw this broad sell off here on wall street gets caught and well keep following this story with you thank you very much has the day. Back to europe now where you know that you citizens can travel freely between one country and another and they can also work in any new country without restrictions so far so good but theres one problem workers can get paid different wages even if they are doing the same work in the same country and e. U. Workers directive wants to prevent what is essentially wage dumping but thats easier said than done which is why theres been a heated debate between eastern and western European Countries now brussels is taking action. With their own Building Sites in the front sector only in caring professions hundreds of thousands of eastern europeans head to rich western European Countries for work contracts dont have to stick to the host countries pay rates making them lay the cheek its long been an issue in countries like germany and france now brussels has reached initial agreement on tightening the rules. At the heart of our proposal is the principle of equal pay for equal work at the same place and we now confirm this press in legislation this directly responds to the concerns of many citizens the agreement opens a new phase for fair to girlish and of the internal markets our Single Market works for goods and services as capital it should also work for people. In future workers from poor a e. U. Countries will earn the same as their native colleagues contracts will be limited to fifteen months and attempts to curb wage dumping but employing eastern europeans will still be the inexpensive option for one workers will still have access to state insurance back home which is often cheaper than in wealthier countries thats a compromise for years eastern European Countries have staunchly opposed restrictions keen to retain their competitive advantage thursdays decision has to pass through several committees before being finalized later this summer the mobile World Congress in barcelona came to an end today its the biggest fear for more communication the buzzword this year was five g. The newest generation of mobile networks promoters say that enabling ultra fast transmission of large quantities of data will rapidly transform our lives the minute we go outside. The click on the up front is not long to wait before the electric car comes rolling along. Just to be on the safe side b m ws driver sits in the front passenger seat. The drivers seat remains empty the whole time. Passengers in the back seats can use a display to do things like sound the horn or even stop the car off do you like the german alternate who wants his first driverless model on the road by twenty twenty one. And almost entirely autonomous vehicle. And hes an emotional kinda demo showcase which weve put on at the mobile World Congress to see also navigate using a digital map weve made of the exhibition grounds to tom in practice it takes the latest five g. Mobile technology to enable autonomous driving at the recent south korea Winter OlympicsKorea Telecom set up the worlds first public five g. Network in barcelona its launched a five g. Virtual reality game. For Technology Transfers gigantic data volumes from the players vests for the Response Time of only ten milliseconds. Be the five g. Is served more much faster than fourteen twenty times twenty times or more and we just dont like to see on a result case just that ok to step on that as you called the viet walk through you dont have to way or go heavy equipment and i say its a totally why less mobile Data Networks are the hot topic in barcelona this year the number of networked gadgets is expected to grow rapidly from twenty twenty on along with the attendant risks i think five g. Represents an opportunity its going to signal the entrance of mochi all devices that are literally going to revolutionize the way that we live the way that we work every component of our lives is going to be impacted but i think what that also represents is potential risk as well because you know things like Driverless Cars and you know remote healthcare and so forth security and privacy are going to be literally being number one question that well be its more than just a game its a serious matter of evaluating and minimizing the potentially disastrous risks of a new technology that will be rolled out within the next two years. And onto other risks now countries in africa have been fighting the socalled Fall Army Warm for two years now the insect has damaged cornfields and forty four of the fifty four nations on the continent there are guidelines to fighting the war but most of the countries cant afford the pesticides capered of there is one of them. Theyre not that big and dont look particularly threatening. But these little monsters can destroy livelihoods throughout entire regions for nomi worm is a glutton for corn and corn is africas stateful food analysts say the worm has devastated over half of this years crop costing farmers billions what if we put it into sacks wed have less than ten sacks of maize you can work out the last thing a kilo of maize is worth one dollar fifty and this will most cape verde farmers dont even have enough seeds to plant next years crop now even the oldest among them have never seen an infestation like this theres some experience of a domestic species of army worm but it wasnt nearly as rapacious. Like being trained and i warned the people who called on me to check that we were definitely dealing with the fall army were. Introduced accidentally to africa the Fall Army Worm thrives on corn its favorite food the female lays hundreds of eggs after hatching the caterpillars eat their way right through the plant when they pay to the adult flies on to another field in the process repeats combating the pest is difficult. Well it needs a two pronged approach one of them is biological control resorting to natural enemies that were going to introduce in a second stage chemical control be used but for that we would need to import pesticides. But pesticides are expensive and not many farmers who can afford them cape verde prefers using local plant based and bacterial insecticides at least to begin with and where born crop spraying could be helpful the uns food and Agricultural Organization says the greedy pest could also become immune to the chemicals.
