even in terms of criminal developments filed against huawei? >> we need to make sure we keep those issues separate. it was most important when the president made comments saying perhaps if there is a trade agreement, he might be able to intervene in this legal case. and has cast suspicions clouds on the integrity of the american legal system. we have always prided ourselves on saying that our legal system is above politics, separated from politics, and when the president makes that statement, people all around the world and especially the people in china, think perhaps the prosecution or the indictment, the charges against the cfo of huawei were politically motivated. his comments were most unfortunate. we just need to make sure we keep those things completely separate. >> what about the way that beijing has responded and detained canadians? a canadianrd ambassador being vocal and fiery huawei allegations. is china missing a golden toortunity to demonstrate the international community that they are taking these claims quite seriously? >> i thin

. >> how will the indictment of with a w huawei and their technology get in the way, if at all, in this relationship? >> let's hope it does not. the president has made some comments that are unsettling to a lot of law enforcement people, trying to link law enforcement investigations and criminal prosecutions with the political deal. we've always tried to keep the two separate. we value and pride ourselves as a country of rule, of law, where prosecutions, criminal prosecutions are decided on the merits without political influence. this throws an monkey wrench into it. in the eyes of the chinese, they believe the arrest and indictment of the cfo of huawei was politically motivated. we need to keep those things separate. >> at the same time, the deadline, the threat of new tariffs on march 1st by the president, is that the way to go about it in negotiating with the chinese? everyone agrees they've done terrible things for decades in terms of trade and blocking access to our markets, but is the white house taking the right approach? >> i've never really agreed with the approach the white ho

the way, that in the united states, i'm not so sure everyone would be running around buying wahwe -- huawei phones here, so that's an issue. on top of that, i think apple has another conundrum it faces, which is just the great topic we knew so much about, which is innovation, and how do you innovate, and how many great ideas does any one company or individual really have? you know, we're now at a point where instead of upgrading your phone every two years, it's going to push to three. maybe it will ultimately push to four. they've made a lot of money every time you upgrade. what do you do about that? is there the next ipad or the next iwatch? you know, what's the next thing? is this car? all these things. and we haven't seen that sort of step-change innovation out of that company, so i think it's a combination of all of those issues. >> what's the next great innovation you would want? >> i think all of this is probably related to health and biotech, ultimately. i think what they're doing with the watch, i have an apple watch, i wear it with ekg i think is interesting. i actually think, by t

prosecutors filed new criminal charges against the chinese company huawei and its chief financial officer and we were talking about donald trump just before and even before he moved into the white house we knew he was using the kind of language you wouldn't necessarily call presidential and hasn't changed his ways either he has accused his rival democrats of wanting to let murderers flood into the country so when that is creating concern that he has permanently our pending american politics and even inciting violence and fishes been looking at that. and the radical democrats president donald trump thinks nothing of attacking opponents using claims and nicknames to win political advantage as angry as presidents get congress and the bureaucracy and reporters and their news organizations other presidents have not tried to deal agenda minus them and so i think that's an important difference because he wants to degrade them as institutions in october last year a number of pipe bombs were sent to a points of president trump a florida man a trump supporter has been charged with sending thirteen

on huawei, so far the chinese saying that they will keep huawei separate from those trade talks, but given that their chief financial officer has just been indicted by the americans, i wonder how that will go over in the next few days. last night, the uk parliament voted to send the prime minister back to brussels to secure "alternative arrangements" to the so—called ‘backstop' — that is the mechanism to prevent the return of a hard border in ireland. the arrangement is unpopular among the brexiteers as it could keep the uk in a permanent customs union with the eu indefinitely if no way can be found to keep the border free of infrastructure. today, we got the eu response in full. they have stolen theresa may's favourite line — "nothing has changed". jean—claude juncker, european commission president, again insisted that the deal on the table remains the only option and the withdrawal agreement signed by the prime minister in november will not be reopened. though withdrawal agreement remains the best and only deal possible. the european union said so in november, we said so

>> reporter: it's hard to overstate how big huawei is to china. it's a massive telecommunications firm. china has been upset. they're really not happy about it at all. after the indictments came down, the ministry of foreign affairs came out with a statement, said they expect her to be released. they didn't take that opportunity to up the rhetoric, to turn up the heat a little bit. i think within that, the fact that they made that choice shows you they don't want huawei to scuttle any potential trade deal, at least not yet. >>> president trump has personally reached out to venezuela's opposition leader juan guaido, which the u.s. recognizes as the president of venezuela. the white house says president trump spoke with him on the phone this morning to reinforce his support. >> more mass protests expected in venezuela as guaido and nicolas maduro fight for political control of this country. with me now nick paton walsh. so president trump speaking to guaido, america's choice in effect for president, the actual president of venezuela. what are we hea

the negotiations are overshadowed by newly unsealed criminal charges against chinese telecoms giant huawei and by a slumping chinese economy. also on the show money for nothing opposition candidate pro gundy wants to give poor in the end so universal basic income sounds like a good idea but can india afford it. this is. business asia. as in berlin welcome american and chinese officials are set to begin a new round of trade talks in washington today the latest efforts to resolve the dispute that has disrupted business across the globe the stakes are high u.s. president donald trump a stretch to raise further tariffs on chinese goods if no deal is reached by march that would hit an already slumping chinese economy and then there's the issue of why way will they won't they that's the question in washington as the world's two biggest economies sit down to work out their differences and subtle their open trade conflict since u.s. president donald trump took office beijing and washington have taken turns slapping each other with ever higher punitive tariffs. the u.s. government argues that china

i didn't hear you. >> on the extradition of meng, the huawei chief technology officer. is -- in the president's view is that a bargaining chip in these talks? >> it might be. i think this is so critical to helping both our economies perform. people in the united states don't really quite -- the media hasn't covered how damaging these tariffs at 10% have already been. they have warehouses, they have docks, they have factories full of products that they can't sell because of a 10% tariff. this would do significant damage if it went to 25%. >> but to be clear, are you saying the president would trade a department of justice prosecution against what the u.s. sees as a technology -- >> i don't know the answer to that -- >> -- national security threat? >> i don't know the answer to that but i know this. the white house, when you were talking earlier about china not keeping its word and lying and cheating, this is the frustration when i've talked to some of those officials in that room this morning. this is their fundamental frustration. they feel like they have to deal with c

the criminal charges that were brought against huawei and their cfo. mnuchin is saying it's not going to effect the -- there are two issues but there's certainly an issue there. >> as far as the chinese are concerned, it's like it's all one big thing. they are considering this arrest as a declaration of economic war, basically. it's as big if not bigger than the tariffs. of course they're connected. and trump himself has actually said impromptu that maybe he might drop charges if we come to an agreement on something. i doubt that, but it's going to make any agreement that much harder. >> we're going to be watching the trade talks and see if anything fruitful comes out. thank you so much. >>> coming up the author of the latest tell all book, cliff simms is here. f simms is here.

mnuchin said the huawei news is a separate thing. i don't know how you can separate these two things. huawei has been stealing trade secrets from u.s. companies. how is that different than stealing intellectual property? at this point it was a separate thing. that was a department of justice issue, the huawei sanctions, but i think this has to come up. i think the chinese are going to have to make a real sure effort to actually make the americans believe that they are trying -- they are making an effort to stop stealing i.t. and enforcing transfer of technology. >> sandra: the editorial board at the "wall street journal" said they should be separate issues. to your point how can it not come up? two days of meetings with the chinese delegation. this is important as we finish up here. the president mentioned china 18 times in a speech to the american farm bureau federation two weeks ago offering assurances a deal will be reached. expectations are really high. >> don't forget. they signed into law the $867 billion farm bill. the adminis

maria: i was told that actually when they put sanctions on huawei the treasury wasn't told, some of the economic ministers weren't told and it was the department of justice issue, again, we know what's going on with huawei, i think it's difficult -- maybe this is the beginning of saying we couldn't get anything done on ip theft. >> there's been a lot of good cop-bad cop statements, statements from mnuchin contradict ones from mr. ross and contradicts mr. lighthizer, as we get closer, market people are going to demand that there's convergence of policy here. china has to be compelled. maria: they are not opening up market, china wants a deal. you see that in financial services. >> are they going to stop stealing software and things like that? maria: i think it's culture. dagen: i think it's a cultural hurdle that the u.s. in short run will not be able to jump over. the issue with president trump if -- people love to mock what he said on twitter, he called himself tariff man, he has been fixated on trade deficit with china, he sees that whether he's write or wrong assign that the u.s. is

is interesting and so i have to ask you also we've been talking a lot about huawei u.s. secretary u.s. treasury secretary steven emotion saying recently that the issue of way can be separated from the trade issue how does china see this. well china definitely sees the very differently because. people talk about the timing because you know like most ones also ross is doing china's leaders and donald trump's meeting in g twenty and right now they have the announcement on the document always c.f. just right before the trade talk of course people will say that you might be a call is dental but i think from china's point of view no matter it's a coincidence or not it's still a very provocative act so no matter how they will have to raise the issue on the trainee goshi asian table and make sure that donald trump will not make them lose face or look bad again. so that a lot of moving parts as these training go she asians begin today will keep following them of course those young han there for us in taipei and paul chris young brits there for us in frankfurt thank you both. now

prosecutors have filed criminal charges against huawei on monday. that is not expected to be a focus of the talks, these are two separate tracks, it definitely inflames tensions and i do think that it really highlights the fact that there is a multidimensional relationship going on and there will not be an easy way to get a trade deal. david: the chinese government did not hesitate to condemn what is going on with this indictment. we believe, a lot of us believe that they are two separate things, one is a criminal proceeding and the other is trade negotiations. the chinese, i suspect, will not see it that way. sara: it has been bad timing around the case, which we all have to believe was -- when the justice department has decided the timeline, on december 1 it of course detained in canada the cfo, that was the same day that is aging pain and donald trump made a deal. now we see criminal charges this week actually filed. so i think it will be an irritant for china. and with zte, we saw donald trump go easier on zte at the request of china, so we will
