1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Kevin Gray are UK europe correspondent, given this terrible story

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: about the snow resort in Switzerland. What's going on?

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the bodies of five skiers have been discovered

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 2: there and Ryan this is all at the very exclusive

5
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 2: luxury zoomat resort, but high up from where normally skiers

6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 2: would venture. The five bodies were discovered a day after

7
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: emergency services were alerted by a group of climbers ascending

8
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 2: what's called the Rivschish, a four two hundred meter peak

9
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 2: in the Valet Alps. They had discovered several pairs of

10
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 2: skis left unattended near the summit, and then using airal

11
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 2: and ground searches they found the bodies. The victims were

12
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 2: at varying altitudes on avalanche debris in high altitude areas

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 2: near the Swiss Italian border. Obviously, at the moment we

14
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: don't yet know the names the identities of those but

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 2: as I said, this is a luxury resort very popular

16
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: with British and other European skiers. There's been some unusual weather.

17
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 2: They're actually in a separate incident. On Friday night, they

18
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 2: were involved in a challenging mountain rescue rescuing four who

19
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 2: were stranded amid fog and high wins, but they thankfully

20
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 2: were all brought to safety.

21
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: And the European Union Trump going at it again, well,

22
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: Trump going at the European Union that says over the terriffs.

23
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: Turns out the ninety day pause could just be ripped

24
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: up next week.

25
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 2: Yes, all eyes I think really focused on America when

26
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: it wakes up on Monday and what Donald Trump has

27
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: to say. He's now threatening to slap a fifty percent

28
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 2: tariff on all goods sent to the US from the

29
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 2: European Union. In response, We've had a pretty robust response

30
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 2: from the EU Trade Commissioner Maras Sefkovich. He's saying the

31
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: EU US trade must be guided by mutual respect and

32
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: not threats, and that we stand ready to defend our interests.

33
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: But this will really concern the EU because it is

34
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: one of Washington's largest trading partners, sending roughly eight hundred

35
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 2: and ninety billion New Zealand dollars worth in goods last

36
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: year and buying though just sort of eight hundred billion

37
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: New Zealand dollars worth, So a big, big difference in

38
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 2: the discrepancy, and that is something that Donald Trump is

39
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: obviously very very angry about it.

40
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,839
Speaker 1: I can see the Germans are getting quite exercised about

41
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: it this morning as well. Thank you so much for that,
