Episode 28: Flora Huang - U.S. Supreme Court vs Pres. Trump - An Expert Int'l Perspective

Does the President’s actions change the perception of America, after all the U.S. is known as a country of laws, not men! Top down look at the impact of the seeming bypass by Pres. Trump of the USSC decision, as in pronouncing it un-American, taking away from his Make America Great Again trajectory, reminding countries not to think they have avoided tariffs and instituting new tariffs, just in case, using different legal basis. Then, there is the micro-level discussion of will corporations in other countries refuse to pay tariffs until the fog of war clears? How much influence on local decision will Pres. Trump’s very personal, vendetta type reaction have on international corporate reaction.  What has the media missed in its coverage?-------------------------------------------------- FLORA HUANGFlora Huang is a Professor of Law and Business at the University of Derby in the UK and a leading expert on global economic governance and international dispute resolution.She currently serves as an EU Chairperson for Arbitration and Trade-and-Sustainable-Development Expert Panels and as an international arbitrator with the China Guangzhou Arbitration Commission.
