Can Japan Avoid US Steel Tariffs?

As President Donald Trump welcomes Shinzo Abe to Florida, we'll explore what the Japanese PM is after - in negotiations over North Korea and in trade terms too

As President Donald Trump welcomes Shinzo Abe to Florida, we'll explore what the Japanese PM is after - in negotiations over North Korea and in trade terms too. Richard Bush of the Brookings Institution in Washington DC gives his analysis. Also, as the World Bank turns to the capital markets to raise money for the world's poorest - we ask if it's a safe investment? And what has the Commonwealth ever done for us? We'll canvas opinion in India ahead of the organisation's summit in London. And, we have a report from the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia over a dispute between the country and Greece over its use of the name Macedonia

Fergus Nicoll is joined by Andy Uhler from American public radio programme, Marketplace, who's in Austin, Texas and by Catherine Yeung from Fidelity International in Hong Kong.
