	Description:		The World Trade Organisation rules that the US can levy billions of dollars worth of tariffs on European goods, in a long-running trade dispute. Meanwhile, another trade issue is being fought between Japan and South Korea – we look at how that impacts goods including our mobile phones. Also - are we moving into the Brexit endgame? The UK’s Prime Minister has written a crucial letter to the EU outlining his proposals; we speak to Ireland’s Paddy Malone from Dundalk’s Chamber of Commerce. And why are women and minorities struggling to get ahead in economics? The Federal Reserve Bank has its own ideas on how to fix the problem. We discuss all this with Sushma Ramachandran, the former Business Editor of The Hindu in Delhi, and Dr Rhonda Vonshay Sharpe from the Women's Institute for Science, Equity and Race in Pittsburgh.
