China has responded to President Trump's steel and aluminium tariffs by imposing taxes of up to 25% on imports of 128 different US goods, including pork, fruit, nuts and wine. We speak to Emily Feng, reporter for the Financial Times in Beijing, about the potential impact this could have on Chinese consumers.

Amid this souring of US-China relations, Zimbabwe's President Emmerson Mnangagwa has been strengthening ties with Beijing, on his first state visit outside Africa since taking office in November.

Professor Tony Hawkins - an economist based in the Zimbabwean capital Harare - tells us what kind of links Mr Mnangagwa will be hoping to develop.

Also in the programme: The 大象传媒's Sameer Hashmi reports on the Indian farmers fighting to have billions of dollars in personal loans cancelled. A defunct Chinese space station has broken into pieces over the South Pacific - Dr Chris North from Cardiff University's School of Physics and Astronomy explains the economics behind cleaning up space junk. And the spice Turmeric has found a surprising popularity in western markets as a coffee flavouring. The 大象传媒's Rob Young tries a turmeric latte for us - sometimes known as 'golden milk'.
