GTR News Brief: Trump promise of “obnoxious” tariffs signals global trade shake-up

Last week, Donald Trump claimed a convincing win over his Democratic rival Kamala Harris in the race to become the next US President, and his Republican party also retook control of the Senate. 

Host Felix Thompson is joined by GTR senior reporter Jacob Atkins to discuss the President-elect's promise of "obnoxious" tariffs and how these measures are set to upend global trade.

They also consider the impact of Trump's electoral win on negotiations within the OECD Arrangement on Officially Supported Export Credits, as members prepare to discuss a proposal from the European Union to ban the export financing of oil, gas and coal supply chains.
