if the chinese were to say to the united states, the united states would rebalance their economy without putting it into recession. i certainly agree that the united states economy is slowing. if we just cut our budget deficit without getting the chinese to move on the savings issue, it will not be good for the united states economy. host: will the goods in china not become more expensive to rid -- produce if the value is allowed to be retained? guest: absolutely. it is not simply a question of trying to manipulate the exchange rate. many of the asian countries that engage in that kind of process, if we got them to move on the currency, if other countries did not move with, we might be not gaining as much in the production. which is really of concern right now. countries like thailand and korea manipulating exchange rates. recently what we saw that has undermined the chinese position is the japanese intervention. this is a major economy, trying to get their currency to a different level, allowing them to say they're not the only ones that manipulate. i have never seen a case of a country

a welfare state in the european sense do you feel like it sort of becoming a trend in the united states because we know for example recently there have been polls out that are saying in the united states nearly half of the population is believe that the federal government paula poses some kind of threat to u.s. freedoms and civil rights americans are the most media saturated society on earth they are bombarded with counterfeit opinions that come from the mass media to them and they are encouraged to believe that these are their their ideas whose ideas are reflected in the media is that they are the russians the ideas of the right the far right and a center that would be considered conservative in the european context a responsible left to find that one must serve and it does not exist on media in media labor leaders are almost never. taken seriously in media unless they go on strike is that why people feel like there is no real labor movement in the united states because we were seeing millions of people who've lost their jobs whereas the labor movement the labor movement. is. one third

states, and actually, very good relations with people in the united states. the people running the country, however, have a much different point of view, and are very busy supporting hamas, hezbollah, even al-qaeda, both in iraq and the talaban and afghanistan, causing the death of americans and allied soldiers. they are players for the long term. >> come back to you in a second, trudy. let's hear what some of our other experts have to say about the iranian-u.s. tensions. >> i think that we should talk to people who we uh, have very fundamental disagreements with, as we do with iran. we ought to tell them why, to their face, we consider them to be a threat, and why the world community thinks they're such a threat. but i'm uh, hoping what we're able to do is to uh, knit together the world community in a very, very tight way, which sends a message to iran. and this would include the russians, the chinese and others, that having moving towards a nuclear weapon is unacceptable to the world community. and i think it's very doable now. >> we were serious about nego

states is supported and for the most part this is quite successful within the united states however for a number of reasons it's becoming less and less successful internationally and this creates a crisis in the in the foreign policy establishment and in the organizations that specialize in this type of international communication the organizations that are in charge of u.s. information and propaganda policy internationally are in a crisis it's a financial crisis and it's a credibility crisis and people get worried when for example the man in charge of the of the agency that oversees the voice of america starts talking about russia and china as enemies of the united states this was a this was a big mistake that he made and he i am sure that he did not intend to do it and that he regrets it quite a bit. while some in the u.s. media may be looking for enemies outside on the inside the country may be facing a spike of racial hatred. you're a mexican immigrant right and people think that you're a threat maybe to a job or something like that they're going to throw us on one basket anythi

states, or to be more specific, the view of a small number of members of congress of the united states. the chinese economy and the u.s. economy are closely interconnected. our bilateral trade has already reached $300 billion. u.s. investment in china has exceeded $60 billion. china has purchased u.s. "t" bonds worth about $900 billion. no one will believe that the chinese leadership does not follow closely the development of the u.s. economy. yet some people in the united states, in particular some in the u.s. congress, do not know fully about china. they are politicizing the problems in china/u.s. relations, in particular, the trade imbalance between our two countries. i don't think this is the right thing to do. i highly appreciate your giving me this opportunity of the interview, because you gave me the opportunity to further explain what the real situation is. there are three points which are not widely known with regard to exchange rate of rmb and china's trade surplus. first china does not pursue a trade surplus. our objective in having foreign trade is to have balance and susta

the united states the picture is next. right now i think most economists thing think we're growing at a rate of about 2%. but if you look ahead and you saw the blue chip forecasters this morning, the private forecasters, average private forecasters say they expect the economy to strengthen to 11, grow about 3. that's not fast enough for us. we want it to be faster and we still have a lot of work to do to heal the damage caused by the crisis and try to get more americans back to work more quickly and make sure that we're growing sustainably in the future. but the american economy, it's healing. parts of it look very strong and impressive now if you look at high tech, you look at manufacturing, look at agriculture. you look at industrial production. they came out of the crisis much more quickly, really quite strong. even private investment growth that slowed a bit, even private investment growth, investment by businesses and capital invest system expanding at a healthy clip. the reason why it's slower, charlie, than we'd lik

between the united states and european states then we have this big big problem that. the same requirements that for us in europe are normal cannot be met within the usa so this is an ongoing debate in lots of issues in the us except expect us to adapt to their standards but it's very difficult to convince them that they should alter to ours concerning especially data protection we have to collaborate that's clear if there is a clear. case about some people about some transfers then we really have to go for it but if it is mass state out that proves processed this can be misused and we really have difficulties to control which you the u.s. makes of the data that they get we still. see member states that are reluctant to agree to that because they seem to have not the same rights on the other side of the atlantic firstly and secondly the structure of the databases in the u.s. and in europe is very diverse for years the united states was the biggest preacher of tolerance in the world but contemporary us society is losing its reputation as a free and open one xenophobia a

states silence why is that the political situations are very different the united states elected barack obama by no means a radical by no means a socialist but someone who was identified with global labor wing of the democratic party obama raised the hopes of tens of millions of people and while he has not delivered he is not sarkozy he is not the new british government he has pursued a counter cyclical keynesian policy of pumping large sums of money into the economy the united states does not have. a welfare state in the european sense do you feel like it nourishes sort of becoming a trend in the united states because we know for example recently there have been polls out that are saying in the united states nearly half of the population is believe that the federal government paul poses some kind of threat to u.s. freedoms and civil rights americans are the most media saturated society on earth they are bombarded with counterfeit opinions that come from the mass media to them and they are encouraged to believe that these are their their ideas whose ideas are reflected in the media is t
