WTO warns of huge trade slump

Global business news, with live guests and contributions from Asia and the USA.

The World Trade Organisation warns of a trade slump on a scale not seen since the 1930s; we speak to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Andrew Walker. We also hear from the residents of Wuhan as travel restrictions are lifted. And Bernie Sanders has suspended his campaign to be the democratic party candidate for the US election; we speak to Max Greenwood, national politics reporter at The Hill newspaper. For many Jewish people, Passover has been affected by the coronavirus; we hear from the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Jonathan Josephs. Plus we hear how dog trainers are turning to the internet to keep their small businesses alive. And we're joined throughout the programme by Erin Delamore, a political reporter, in New York and James Mayger, Bloomberg’s Beijing deputy bureau chief.
