Biden signs a law banning goods made in Xinjiang being sold in America

Available for over a year

President Biden has signed into law a bill banning companies from selling goods made in Xinjiang in America. The US argues that China is conducting a genocide in the province, and has blocked import of goods from businesses that can't prove products sourced there are not made using Uighur slave labour. Issac Stone Fish, CEO at Strategy Risks fills us in with the details. Also in the programme, the government of Belgium has announced its two nuclear power plants will close in four years' time. Georg Zachmann of the Bruegel think tank tells us whether the country has a backup plan for energy supply after 2025. And Croatia has seen its population decline dramatically in recent years so the government in Zagreb has come up with a plan that, it hopes, will reverse the trend - Croatians living in the European Union are being offered up to $29,000 to return home to start a business. We hear from the BBC's Balkans correspondent Guy Delauney. Rob Young is joined for comment throughout the programme by Mehmal Sarfraz in Lahore, Pakistan and Tony Nash the founder of AI firm Complete Intelligence in Texas, USA. (Picture: President Biden.
