Trump puts fresh tariffs on Argentina and Brazil

World Business Report

Available for over a year

Steel and aluminium exports from the two countries will be subject to the tariffs. President Trump says the Latin American nations are profiting as the value of their currencies are falling against the dollar. We speak to Jimena Blanco from research and consultancy firm Verisk Maplecroft in Buenos Aires. Also in the programme, we continue our series of interviews with each of the main UK political parties ahead of next week's general election. Jonathan Reynolds is one of the Labour Party's finance spokespeople, and discusses his party's economic policies. Plus the BBC's Vincent Dowd finds out how the Martin Scorsese film The Wolf of Wall Street has been turned into a 'live immersive experience' in London. (Picture: Steel rebar.
