Narcotics control commission in beijing says its investigated Chemical Industrial parks and closed down internet sites selling fenton online and concluded to kill him with a little. President trump said in his tweet that fentanyl was mainly from china is completely groundless and untrue but it was sort of. About 2 weeks ago President Trump tweeted that he is ordering Logistics Companies to search for and refuse all deliveries of fentanyl from china and elsewhere he also wrote the chinese president using ping promised this influx would stop and that it didnt whats clear is that the drug comes in containers and through the mail Law Enforcement officials from virginia took down a major drug ring last week they found 30 kilograms of fentanyl one official involved in the investigation said that most trenton ill comes directly from china. Chinese Officials Say theyre doing everything they can to keep that promise of cracking down on illegal shipments to the u. S. There are gene u. S. President trump to deal with the trade dispute and the french are no crisis separately they also complain that searching all shipments bound for the u. S. Is slowing down chinas export operations. Well grandma is within the studio now has looked into this story a bit close a great briefly explained to us what really is the opiate crisis in the u. S. Very briefly and how much of a role does it really play now in the trade conflict with china of course so in the United States right now the Opioid Crisis is an issue of i would say mass addiction and mass abuse and misuse of prescription drugs like. Heroin for example which is made used to make oxy cotton and also fenton which is a synthetic opioid. On average opioids kill about 130 americans a day now that is a pretty large number in a massive number but i will say that issues of this magnitude they are multifaceted multilayered you know you have to look at the pharmaceutical industry you have to look at small town economic policies you also have to look at you know the u. S. War on drugs and that raises the question you know. What is really causing this is this issue so i will say that the trade war does play a role with the Opioid Crisis but maybe not to the extent that. It is not you this crisis has been known for decades why is from now suddenly blame in china well you previously mentioned a ongoing trade conflict but its also been referred to as a trade war both the United States and china have used the state of their current relationship to kind of push back on other hit back you know both politically and economically and i will say that this Opioid Crisis points to their current relationship being used as a fall guy to kind of cover their own domestic shortcomings so they trump is failing to address the crisis on this drug bust where theres a weak link to china. That that authorities that Law Enforcement authorities have discovered just to sort of. Yeah i dont know divert from the fact that that is not doing you know this is correct i mean again like i said you know you have to look at Large Pharmaceutical Companies who are prescribing the drugs you also have to look at you know the supply and demand effect cause and effect you also have to look at you know the people who are getting addicted to these pills and overdosing you know so where it comes from is quite important but also. Are the factors that lead to addiction in the United States briefly its very tricky thats an illegal drug that Many Companies legally make millions with this the fight against ill that prize is also having a negative impact on the legal a Drug Companies as of now yes a negative impact both from a p. R. Standpoint but also from an a financial standpoint as you said earlier johnson and johnson is paying out about over 500000000. 00 u. S. Dollars in an Oklahoma Court for being accused of fueling the Opioid Crisis in that state also the maker of oxy cotton purdue will be paying out 12000000000. 00 us dollars to settle about 2000 court cases related to opioid United States so i mean they are taking a hit now but over time they have also profited from selling these drugs very minus thank you very much for. Now the u. S. And poland agreed to cooperate on to develop 5 g. Technology polish Prime Minister my tail as you know you pointed out more of its u. S.
