President Trump Prepares to Address UN

Available for over a year

Donald Trump will address the General Assembly of the United Nations on Tuesday about cutting costs and reforming the organisation. Russell Padmore asks Martin Wolf from the Financial Times what he expects to hear. A row over subsidies between the Canadian aircraft maker Bombardier and Boeing of the US threatens to create a new trade rift between Washington and Ottawa. We ask global trade expert Simon Lester from the Cato Institute for his perspective. Also in the programme, the EU is accused of allowing illegal fishing by European ships off the coast of West Africa. Beth Lowell from Oceana says it's damaging the economies of poorer countries. And, with the Emmy Awards taking place in Los Angeles, we talk to Georg Szalai from the Hollywood Reporter about how competition from video streaming services like Amazon Prime and Netflix is shaking up the television industry.
