Moscow's Trade Embargo: the Russian View

Business Daily

Available for over a year

We get the view from Russia on what shoppers make of Moscow's trade embargo on western food imports. Is this just the start of a wider trade war with the west? And we speak to American journalist Jeffrey Rothfeder who got an inside view of car manufacturer Honda. Is Honda - and not Toyota - the Japanese car company multinationals should emulate? Plus how a group of Mexican women called Las Patronas are helping hundreds of migrants who speed through their village on their way to the US with small acts of kindness.
