Defeat it he promises to begin with the completion of. Russia carries out its 1st joint patrol with china in the asia pacific during a race for influence in the region. Kenya as finance minister pleads not guilty to allegations of corruption. Has promised to unite the country Boris Johnson has been elected leader of britains Ruling Conservative Party to replace tories a may as Prime Minister in a leadership election by Party Members he countered with over 92000 votes is rival foreign secretary jeremy hunt got almost 47000 votes reason may is pledged to full support. Her successor shes due to attend her resignation to Queen Elizabeth on wednesday before she meets johnson far as valid to do or die over breaks and says britain will leave the European Union by october the 31st i say to all the doctors dude we are going to energize the country were going to get bricks it done on october 31st to take advantage of all the opportunities that it will bring in a new spirit of can do and we are once again going to believe in ourselves and what we can achieve unlike some slumbering giant were going to rise and ping off the guy ropes of selfdoubt and negativity with better education better infrastructure more police fantastic food Fiber Broadband sprouting in every household we are going to unite this amazing country and we are going to take it forward i thank you all very much for the incredible honor that youve just done me i will work flat out from now on with my team that i will build i hope the next few days to repay your confidence but in the mean time the campaign is over and the work begins john holl takes a look at Boris Johnsons rise to the top. You know were going to see the likes of Boris Johnson and brussels have a history together and it doesnt point to a happy conclusion as a young reporter based in the city johnson specialized in sometimes fabricated front page stories belittling european bureaucracy hes editor at the time describes johnsons willingness to tell any audience whatever he thinks most likely to please heedless of the inevitability of its contradiction an hour later so Mike Johnsons declarations on similarly be promises made to win over his Party Without the substance or detail to back them up. Of. Course be pushing your plan into action so as to be ready to come out october. 31st a 1st come what may come of their. Daughter who was head of communications under Boris Johnson when he was mayor of london Boris Johnsons time at city hall show that hes more than capable of doing detail he doesnt drown it he doesnt allow officials to come up with excuses for not doing things which is why he delivered almost everything he promised as mere and if he was to be that bulldozer if you like refusing to take no for an answer in number 10 then he could be he could be a successful Prime Minister as mayor for 8 years johnson was a flamboyant salesman for the city with a selfeffacing charm that indeed him to many but the challenge of downing street will far outweigh city on both sides people are not all together convinced that he is as sincere about this as he has been in other things. But were about to find out and frankly the way hes now been selected with a conservative party hes got very little room for maneuver so what however this journey started he is now the leader of the press. Party in all but name and thats what he has to deliver or itll all be over very very quickly Boris Johnson famously prepared to news paper columns favoring both leave and remain before opting to support the leave campaign ahead of the 2016 referendum some wonder now whether hell be persuaded to opt for a soft breaks it compromise once the realities facing his heart breaks it promises become clear i think if he faces a huge challenge i mean any any party takes faces huge constraints in terms of both what the e. U. Will agree to and what parliament will agree to and he might say that hes going to leave the e. U. On the 31st of october to deal with delhi fundamentally that is not an issue entirely in his gift and it wouldnt surprise me at all if behind the scenes his team are preparing for a possible general election in the autumn because it might will go wrong supporters compared johnson to Winston Churchill a crisis leader the e. U. Wont call his bluff they suggest because no one knows what he might do next door. 7 but the resistance is strong he has absolutely no chance of getting his bricks through on october 31st yes he did say do or doing so on november the 1st if we fall in on this sort johnson has reached the pinnacle of power in british politics wielding it wont be easy. Then tasha barclay is standing by in paris with the latest reaction out of europe but 1st lets go more from jonah hall who is live for us from westminster so jonah not a big surprise but how are the numbers being crunched at this point when it comes to interpreting his margin of victory. Well its a pretty thumping victory for Boris Johnson winning exactly double the number of votes jeremy and to his rival the foreign secretary no question he is the popular choice of the party quite possibly of the grassroots of the party but not necessarily a shoo in to unite either the party or the country lets talk now to buy guest tim duran joins me hes a Senior Researcher with the institute of government thanks for joining me your particular focus is on negotiations and preparations for a no deal braggs it him im told are you expected to be busy in the next couple among the things that require a lot of things to be talking about over the next few weeks or months and obviously arent sure chief among them of course will be Boris Johnsons Campaign Promise is tested deal or no deal october 31st how would you rate the risk now some would say it of a no deal breaker i think the poverty has gone up for shots it was clear that thats what he wants to do get us out by the 31st of october with or without a deal and hes also been very sort of severe about what he would countenance changing to the deal to make acceptable to him so that the window for a negotiated exit is now right when he speaks and hes really box himself in with red lines that almost certainly the European Union arent cant or wont meet. He says hes going to go all out as his 1st public act to prepare the country in positive terms for a no deal breaks it are there positive terms in which to frame a no deal breaker i think it depends on your point of view you know the breaks it is you support it will argue as it gets out of the kind of restrictions for me on trade on lots of different areas of sort of economic policy. Regulation immediately but it does also bring big sort of challenges you know lots of disruption to to trade with you well lose access to a whole host of e. U. Wide security measures so facilitating cooperation between Police Forces will get much more did and theres still the big question about what happens at the irish border both the u. K. And the irish governments have said they dont want any return to the borders of the past theres still no clear proposal to how to avoid that in an ideal world you know and indeed theres no clear way through parliament either it was interesting before the result was announced an announcement was made on stage an appeal to tory party and pleas for them to be perhaps kinder to the new Prime Minister than they were to to reserve made it seems to me inevitable that that can only take place until he disappoints either those opposed to no deal or those who think its a good idea because he just cant satisfy everyone i think thats why it seems that washington is at this stage trying to see the same strategy that reason made it of showing to the great city is that he will get brakes it done and showing to be those who dont want to be what you want to keep a very close race if you did you do a sort of a man is very soft breaks it and trying to keep both sides happy ultimately though those 2 things will be in tension and hes going to have to disappoint one of those sites and in the process quite likely trigger or have triggered for him an election very possible the problem is as well you know the labor party is also divided theyre not clear about what they want to do do they want to campaign for main do they want to campaign for a different deal there are many of them who are worried about their supporters who do want to leave so to the division over europe and over the approached regs it went through the labor party as it does to the conservative to thanks so much for your time for speaking to us theyre very strong so it was just a couple of hours ago now that he so if you simply accepted his partys leadership channeling his hero Winston Churchill calling for a can do spirit to do what many people think is impossible and not giving much of the way of details of how he thinks it should be done all right lets thank joe hall there. Is going there or cross over the channel and tasha bottlers in paris to give us some International Reaction bars johnson got quite a bit of history you could say with the rest of europe how is the continent viewing this. Well the french president emanuel mark karr had a meeting a short while ago with the incoming head of the European Commission on laden and she they they spoke about Boris Johnson after but not in any way they would particularly surprise you these are matters of course of protocol when a new Prime Minister is appointed a man or my car said that he congratulated Boris Johnson and that he looked forward to working with him not just on break said but on other matters and those sentiments were echoed by the incoming head of europes commission theres no doubt the european leaders will be watching Boris Johnson very closely indeed to see exactly what his next move will be when it comes to break that he has made it very clear that he wants a no deal brags that hes not going to shy away from that and that of course is some concern to european leaders who have been pushing not to have a no deal they say that that would be the worst Case Scenario that it would serve anyones interest theyve been working very hard against it and it was also interesting that a man or mark or also said that he praised the reason may the outgoing the former british Prime Minister now i should say and he praised her for the fact that she never blocked any of the European Unions work that she always cooperated very closely with the European Union and perhaps that was a little message to Boris Johnson who is seen as someone who could possibly block some of the work of the European Union while across the Atlantic Ocean theres also been some reaction weve heard from the u. S. President donald trump he put out to tweet congratulating Boris Johnson again the sort of thing that youd expect a president to say to a new Prime Minister also saying hell be great and we know that Boris Johnson and donald trump certainly admire each other very much they both see themselves as political mavericks. A key challenge facing britains new Prime Minister is to contain the ongoing tension with iran with france germany russia and china will meet iran in vienna on sunday to discuss how to save the 2015 nuclear deal u. K. Foreign secretary jeremy hunt is calling for a european led Naval Mission to ensure safe shipping through the strait of hormuz and in the last few hours around Vice President said International Coalition to protect the gulf will only bring in security to the region cross over to joins us now live from tehran so those are our not exactly happy with this suggestion of a european Naval Mission. No certainly not the feeling here is that that will only exasperates already sensitive area and situation and weve also heard from Iranian Foreign minister Mohammad Javad zarif who has just tweeted the following in response to the events that have unfolded in the United Kingdom hes said that quote the may government seizure of iranian oil at behest of the United States is piracy pure and simple i congratulate my former counterpart Boris Johnson on becoming the u. K. s Prime Minister iran does not seek confrontation but we have 1500 miles of persian gulf coast line these are our waters and we will protect them this is in general the feeling that weve get here from the officials the 1st Vice President also shared the feeling that any kind of a coalition in terms of monitoring the ships that move through the strait of hormuz would only make things worse that it is up to the iranians and the regional countries to secure this area and their waters around them that its not up to the United States or the British Government to send in any extra force us to patrol these waters its a very very sensitive subject in the weve also heard from the head of irans navy who said that any kind of interference in their International Waters in this area would be seen as an intrusion and that iran is responsible for the safety of the strait of hormuz historically and they will continue to do that just now. At the same time we have with the with the foreign minister so what sort of message to the french president. Well the Deputy Foreign minister is delivering a letter from iranian president Hassan Rouhani to the french president emmanuel micron this is a head of a meeting that is scheduled to take place on sunday the 28th of july in vienna its an extraordinary session of the remaining signatories of the Nuclear Agreement of 2015 the e 3 plus 2 as they call them the 3 European Countries france germany and britain as well as china and russia and iran will be present as well we understand that this will be a meeting in order to determine the Implementation Phase of this Nuclear Agreement iranians are not very happy with their signatories the european signatories since the United States withdrew from the deal last year they are demanding that the europeans uphold their end of the deal because the reins of the cited every 60 days they will scale back their commitment until they see some tangible results from the remaining signatories which they claim they havent seen yet so this meeting which we believe the Deputy Foreign minister abbas arshiya will be attending on sunday in vienna what we another attempt to try and salvage what is left of this deal dosage of. Russia says its carried out its 1st long range patrol with china in the Asia Pacific Region the Defense Ministry statement says the exercise was aimed at increasing cooperation in the region and not directed any 3rd country south korea had earlier said it fired warning shots Russian Military aircraft violated its space both russia and china have dismissed that allegation beijing says all countries enjoy freedom of movement in the region. Japan is lodging a protest saying south korean aircraft operated in doctorow island tokyo seized as japanese territory. South korea later summoned the senior russian diplomat over the incident. The reason why we summoned the Russian Deputy chief of mission without prior notice is to lodge a stern protest on russian aircraft entering the korean air Defense Identification Zone and violation of our airspace and strongly urge them to prevent a reoccurrence. And abrahamian is a senior junk fellow at Pacific Forum bats in asia focus think tank based in hawaii he joins us on skype from engine in south korea good to have you with us so how do you interpret weve got a situation now where china and russia are conducting their 1st joint effort troll in the Asia Pacific Region is this a move to calum to u. S. Influence well its part of a longer trend there navies have certainly been cooperating in conducting joint drills for several years and. You would have expected at some point the air force is to begin practicing or conducting drills together as well i think whats interesting about the timing is it comes at a period where south korea and japan have an extremely strained relationship and where they chose ready to overfly and if the south korean accusations are true actually enter a south korean airspace is part of the east sea or the sea of japan that is disputed territory between japan and south korea so perhaps they were trying to highlight some of the differences be between south korea and japan broadly pour fuel arms fire so to speak and you think south korea is feeling vulnerable right now. They certainly must be in seoul. They trade dispute is brewing with japan as i mentioned their traditional patron and ally the United States has a president that has not been terribly good at Alliance Maintenance has put a lot of pressure on seoul to pay more for hosting us troops and to renegotiate the Free Trade Agreement that was there was concluded a decade ago so. With things bad with china with that with japan rather at the moment to have this kind of incursion certainly puts more pressure on. How much pressure does this sort of relationship between china and russia put on the u. S. Well the timing is interesting again because john bolton has just arrived and perhaps if indeed russia and china were probing to try and explore fissures between japan and south korea in might backfire and bolton certainly is a man for all his is flaws understands the need for the United States that have strong allies if it is to project power around the world so perhaps this may spur him to get the president to speak out against what happened today in the e. C. C. Of japan. Will have to wait and see what happens tomorrow when the asia wakes up again. I mean ultimately do you do you think that joint chinese russian air patrols could become a rate of regular sort of feature in the region. Well if you look at works china has done in the South China Sea which is essentially create new facts on the ground by gradually building up new capabilities while the United States will its focus elsewhere you could imagine it trying to adapt the playbook for for air defense as well its already a bit of an issue thats ongoing because what countries do is they designate air identification zone that is not a part of any treaty or or Un Convention anything like that its just a unilateral space that they ask incoming airplanes to identify themselves in china as and south koreas overlap so its pretty regular for china to violate. Or traverse the space that overlaps as a way of demonstrating that they dont care or dont respect that south korean identification zone will see if flights that actually push up against actual airspace which is smaller than the identifier for cations i will see if that increases and if so what the response of the u. S. And its allies will be of the oh i could get your analysis on that. Probably more still ahead on the news hour clothing. Truly complete gas to break up protests against trees embattled governor. And how eating fruit in nepal could be bad for everyones health. I want of crickets most deadly bowls has some news that will make opposition batsman very happy details coming up in the sports. Kenyas finance minister has appeared in court to plead not guilty to corruption fraud and abuse of Office Following the unprecedented arrest of a government minister.

High temperatures and strong winds making it tough to extinguish wildfires in portugal about a 1000 firefighters are battling the flames north of lisbon summit blaming a lack of resources and government inaction for the damage caused the e. U. Is warning bad fires are already.

He says the fires fit into a broader pattern of extreme weather events the picture is coming through pretty clearly and not just fires there are also hurricanes and floods as well so there are a lot of extreme weather events which are exactly what the scientists told us was going to happen so they were starting to see is governments politicians at least paying attention but theyre not translating that into really aggressive enough action to stop the problem getting worse several things that can be done 1st of all i think youve got to keep people and forests apart so where its appropriate as francis of that great grief thing you dont let regulated Developers Take place in vulnerable forest areas you also need to make sure that your Emergency Services are properly funded and that means basing the for the budgets not on what used to happen because weve changed the baseline so the problem is theyre going to need much bigger budgets theyve got now because this problem is going to get worse. Well 1st new records of the latest heatwave are already made in france ramas labor yeah porch good results of high temperatures and dryness and weve already had one heat for so far in europe is the 2nd. Where hes being eased in gently if you look at the satellite picture to my good night dear from the shave above our head is of why were about to get warm once it gets big area of High Pressure around which the air flows gently in the middle of which the air does nothing apart gets heated by day and by night night time minutely in toulouse and in boulder which is down in the south of france have been record about 24. 00 degrees as the highest record so it being eased in gently but much of western europe will see daytime temperatures rise significantly next over the next 2 or 3 days when currently got around nearly 40 in madrid in 36 in process high but you dont really think thats particularly well the look at london 32 year londoners think thats quite high it is western europe is this is where is happily and they each creeping up over the pyrenees into central france for the summer really blaze the picture i think probably be at its hottest on thursday where paris has got a general forecast of 40 bear in mind this could be wrong by degree of the record for powers in july thank you 41 so were pretty close to breaking down in fact if you close even a little bit on this part of europe weve actually got the potential of 42. 00 in the middle of france and 39. 00 and to up be talking more about this. Thanks so much will still have here on aljazeera crossing the border to find work how a rainy incurred sort of scaping the effects of the u. S.

With detailed coverage called power being replaced by eco friendly plants all over the world environmentalists hear the pulse of whats confirmed. From around the world those things just as visible on the ground and on the surface underwater. And watching out 0 time to recap the headlines now far as johnson has been elected leader of britains Ruling Conservative Party and will become the next u. K. Prime minister hes promising to unite the country. Iran says it doesnt want a confrontation with britain over the seizure of the british flag the oil tanker britains foreign secretary is calling for a european led Naval Mission to ensure the safety of shipping in the strait of hormuz. Russia says its carried out its 1st long range and patrol with china in the Asia Pacific Region moscow says the exercise was aimed at increasing cooperation in the region and not directed any 3rd country south korea had earlier said it fired warning shots a Russian Military aircraft that violated its airspace. Back to our top story now and Boris Johnson has become the new leader of the Ruling Conservative Party that means will become the u. K. s next Prime Minister ian duncan is the editor of politics dont you k. He joins us now live from westminster good to have you with us so does the results suggest to you that last johnson can take a firm kemal and of the conservative party 1st of all. No not really the result that hes got is the risk you know comes from members and he did get a very commanding result from men his problems now are about and hes now theres a room of moderate tory m. P. Who are on the back benches who will fight his proposals for no do and they will fight them very hard they prove themselves again and again now we had some doubts about them in the beginning but now it seems like they really will hold the line against it and that problem is actually getting worse because even as we speak people that were in cap and who were sort of lashed to government discipline into voting with the government on the longer with the government leaving in some cases before they think youll kick them out and they are now going to go to the bout benches and they were very sick and his plans from there do so hes got a lot of support in the membership his problem now is with m. P. s and he does not have full control so what does that leave a divided country. Still divided i mean you know as you pointed out and youre going to team he said he was going to unite the country there was no plans for how to do that in fact quite the opposite everything he said over the last few weeks as hes been appealing to conservative membership has been a more a more draconian a more more sort of muscular almost pressure size form of brechts which ended with him refusing to rule out cancelling parliament will together and then pushing through no deal brix it now given that the country is split between and remain on the one hand and no dilberts it is the most pronounced most vigorous form of rex you can imagine its very hard to imagine anything he could do now to unite the country unless of course he goes back against the promises hes already made and that right there is probably the most likely outcome. Do you think there is any childs. Try anyway to renegotiate anything theyve already agreed to. Yeah there is so theres 2 parts to what the e. U. Have done with the u. K. Is 2 parts of the do one is the with george agreement thats the divorce thats basically what you need to do to split apart 2 is the future relationship document and that is the name implies about what you do in the future what kind of trade do you have now they are willing to do all sorts of things with the future relationship document what theyre not willing to do is mess around with george agreeing with the divorce documents and thats a problem because Boris Johnson essentially said that he wont tolerate any form of backstop backstop is the new and on insurance policy and that is in the withdrawn agreement so were not basis while they are prepared to mess around with the duo theyre not prepared to mess around with a part of the deal that he wants changed so on that basis it looks like the negotiations they would have in brussels are not going to come to anything but if you i mean to get to a future relationship you 1st have to have a withdrawal and a Withdrawal Agreement if the if there isnt and the parliament. Consensus for me off on that one and the europeans are not willing to renegotiate it what does that leave Boris Johnson heading into an early election another referendum. Yeah exactly i mean the thing is you know look at it look at each eventuality is a flow chart you know anything and then this and then this and then this and all of those options seem to lead you inevitably towards an election because the truth is he convert to do it with the parliament that he has theyve tried to get the deal through 3 times of the backstop in it that wont get through Parliament Take the backstop out the deal is impossible if you try to do never do which is threatened parliament will stop you so over and over the problem for him is this deadlock component but it wont vote for a do it wont vote for no deal so what does he do he has to go for a general election yes to change the numbers in parliament be he rode out a general election to sit for a sleep over and over and over again say he himself was blocked off the avenue isnt exactly the same thing with voting another referendum he said over and over again he wouldnt do it so the truth is now you took his permission you just think the great question is which of you will often stated promises are you going to break 1st because its going to have to be one of them. Are going to be interesting to watch then thanks so much for your analysis. Of the economy in iran suffering from us sanctions many iranians crossing the border to find work in Northern Iraq name reports from the bill in the kurdish region the common language makes it easier for them to earn money for their families back.
