49 分钟Hello and welcome to Business Matters.
I'm Roger Hearing.
On the programme today,
a bumpy prelude to talks between Donald Trump and the South Korean president,
but the US president now says we've done a deal.
So what are the trade implications?
Also today, the tariff problems for postal systems dealing with the US,
the perils for young South Africans being recruited on social media for jobs in Russian drone factories.
and those dealing with the harm caused by fast fashion in Africa.
And I'll be joined throughout the programme by two guests on opposite sides of the world.
Sushma Ramachandran, Consulting Editor at The Secretariat, is joining us on the line from Delhi.
Sushma, a very good morning to you.
Good morning, Roger.
It's good to be back, even though I know BBC Business Matters is on the way out.
I fear so, but anyway, good to have you with us.
And Reema Rahman,
who is White House and legal affairs editor at The Hill and adjunct professor at the American University,
who's joining us on the line from Washington.
So, Reema, very good evening to you, I should say.
Thank you, Roger, and a good morning to you.
