in the long—term, the prosperity of the european union and jobs in the european union depend on the integrity of the internal market. and we're not going unpick it. but i return to the raw data put out by the imf. of course, it's a little bit speculative, but one must respect the strength of their economics. they say that if there is a cliff edge, a hard crash—out brexit, that will cost the eu as a whole probably around i.5%, if not more, of gdp. some countries will be much worse, like ireland who could lose 4% of gdp. it will cost hundreds of thousands of jobs, possibly over a million, across the eu as a whole. some countries in particular, and this is where we get to you, some countries in particular, like the netherlands, are extraordinary vulnerable because of the strength of your trading relationship with the uk. yes. but we also have trading relations with the eu internal market. i think if you make the same calculation for the disintegration of the internal market you would get figures that are even worse. i think to now one—sidedly try and make the eu responsible for the fallout o

we are the european union. we have the internal market. we will negotiate with the uk about a future relationship but we will not re—negotiate the eu because, yes, brexit will be damaging, even if there is no cliff edge, no crashing out of the eu. if there is a crashing out, it will be even more damaging. but unpicking the internal market will be the worst scenario and we will not do that. if you say bluff... i have noticed that in recent weeks, in the british media, and you are actually making the same point here, they are trying to kind of intimidate the eu into, oh, if you do not accept our terms and it will be terrible for you. i think we should be... maybe it is time for little bit of honesty in politics and maybe people should have been told before the brexit referendum what reality was going to be like. the vote has taken place, that is clear. that is the situation we have to deal with. and it will hurt. but we are not going to undo the internal market. far be it from me to intimidate anybody, i am looking at the the reality of wh

european union's updated blocking statute enters into force under seventh of august to protect e.u. companies doing legitimate business with iran for an impact of u.s. extraterritorial sanctions but what is the blocking statute now it's a piece of legislation it was originally written back in one nine hundred ninety six it was designed to allow european companies to get round the side of an eight u.s. embargo on cuba however the legislation has been extensively rewritten earlier this year to specifically target or be able to target sanctions against iran what it would mean is that european companies have to pay no heed to u.s. sanctions also they would any court rulings against them would be notified in the e.u. size however what that doesn't really take into account is that a lot of these major companies that are doing business with iran and the east pushing to do business with iran as part of that deal they also have major operations in the united states as well and those operations in the u.s. they wouldn't be covered by the blocking start to it and it could leave them open to po

with the european union a deal can be reached but the red lines that the u.k. government has drawn are still there so no membership in the single market no membership in the customs union and that makes it exceedingly difficult what's so interesting to have you here with this is that you've spent more than a decade in the european parliament so you know all the ins and outs of the e.u. what downsides are you expecting for the european union should a no deal breaks it happen where the downside is that we said been here the chief negotiator of the e.u. has identified right away and that concerns people first and foremost their e.u. citizens living in the united kingdom who don't know what the future will look like they have british citizens living in the e.u. and germany and france and other countries who don't know exactly what their status is going to be so it's people first and foremost that we have to care about and the second thing is of course great britain is a very important partner in nato ally and we don't know how much bad blood is going to be created

well if you look at the the european union it's the biggest traders the trading partner to the u.s. but the u.s. also runs the second highest trade deficit with the european union right after china and those remarks on u.s. president donald trump are also aiming a bid at to propose a proposal from europe to actually cut any card tariffs in total and u.s. president donald trump is quoted as saying that europeans have the habit of driving their own and not us american cars and that's why he doesn't see any need to actually cut those card tariffs at all so yes mexico canada this is one side of the story of the european union as are all different one and at this point it doesn't sound too friendly what we hear out of washington when it comes to trade with the european union and if we talk about china next week maybe tariffs on china's growth in the amount of two hundred billion dollars we'll kick off and we await that yes quarter for us in new york thank you yes the international monetary fund says it will work closely with argentina thora teams to strengthen the country's i.m.f. suppor

union worlds indeed breaking refugee law and breaking the european union's own rules that's for sure i'm in strong agreement with what roland said about borders and the need to protect them but i have a different conclusion i disagree that this is a european problem and indeed i think that the or that this can be solved with european measures and i think that the the reflex position of european leaders which is to say that we need a european solution to this problem is precisely wrong it is precisely the fact that we have a european union with a borderless internal space the showing an area which has caused the migration problem in the first place i first visited the song at camp near cali in the late one nine hundred ninety s. the migration crisis that we're talking about now didn't start in two thousand and fifteen it started in the one nine hundred ninety s. when italy joined the schengen zone and from that moment onwards the borders of the mediterranean were on the english channel yeah and it's there is a direct relation of cause and effect and what we saw in two thousand and six

the total amount we export to the european union, £164.1 billion. and what about the pm's pledge to be the biggest foreign investor in africa among the g7 countries? those are the largest economies in the world. well, we are nearly there already. the us investor and £44.3 billion, the uk just already. the us investor and £44.3 billion, the ukjust behind at £42.7 billion, the ukjust behind at £42.7 billion and france, the third biggest g7 investor, £38 billion. but look at this, in 2011 china invested just £17.8 billion in africa. by 2016, that figure had grown to £41.1 billion. at that rate of change, china will soon overtake britain, showing that competition for african trade is high. the big question is this, will britain leaving the european union be a boost or burden for trade with africa? in the next two, three, four, five years the focus in the uk will be replacing the existing arrangements that exist by the eu. in the long run could the uk do things differently from the eu, could it be generous in certain areas? possibly but it is a qu

european economic operators in legitimate business with iran this is why european union's updated blocking statute enters into force under seven of august to protect e.u. companies doing legitimate business with iran from the same pact of u.s. extraterritorial sanctions. so what is the blocking start to it well it was initially written into law back in one thousand nine hundred six it was designed to allow european companies to get around a u.s. blockade of cuba however it was significantly rewritten earlier this year to focus on iran what it means essentially is that european companies have to pay no heed to sanctions against a country in which they're doing business say iran in this case and also that any court rulings in a foreign country based on those business dealings another fight in the eyes of the e.u. but put it this way with a hypothetical example say you're an e.u. car manufacturer and you've got yourself a toehold in a run maybe tens perhaps hundreds of millions of dollars worth of business that would be protected by the e.u. however the e.u. can't protect in another country s
