Today, we look at how far China is willing to go in retaliation against President Trump’s tariffs? Beijing has vowed to “fight to the end” after President Trump threatened to nearly double the tariffs on China. How far could the trade war go? And, how would big tariffs on Chinese goods impact people in the UK? James is joined by Ian Williams, author of the Fire of the Dragon, China’s New Cold War and Sophia Gaston, visiting fellow at Kings College London. Plus, President Trump says the US is having direct nuclear talks with Iran on Saturday. Why now? And what does it mean for tensions in the Middle East? James is joined by Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet. You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker. If you want to listen, just say "Ask BBC Sounds to play Newscast”.

  • if you're a business or in an industry that's being impacted by these tariffs.

  • love the show and I enjoyed Monday's episode.

  • Thank you, Graham.

  • James interviewed an American commentator and I was left thinking we need to be listening more to Chinese commentators and experts rather than American ones.

  • Can you oblige?

  • Well, yes we can, Graham.

  • We have some experts on China and they're coming up on this episode of Newscast.

  • Newscast.

  • Newscast from the BBC.

  • I like landscapes.

  • I don't think I'm being rude.

  • Japping unemployed people who are overweight, that is not the agenda.

  • It's the fun police working overtime.

  • A star is born, Elan.

  • So hurt that America let this happen.
