this is al jazeera. hello and welcome i'm peter told me you're watching the news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next 60 minutes deliver bricks. unite the country and defeat. a little bit of. the new british prime minister boris johnson is elected as conservative party leader he's promising to deliver bracks it unites his party and the country. iran warns any attempt to form an international coalition to patrol the gulf will only bring in security to the region. russia and china carry out their 1st joint patrols in the asia pacific region south korea

fires warning shots for violating its airspace and in sport the agents of gareth bale insists his play isn't leaving real madrid on a loan deal but rails coach says a deal to sell the $100000000.00 striker is close. the man who led the push for bricks it 3 years ago has now secured his job as a conservative party leader and that means he will become the u.k.'s next prime minister that will technically happen tomorrow boris johnson today winning the conservative party leadership race wooing party members with his promise of a do or die bricks it he says the u.k. will leave the e.u. by the 31st of october mr johnston needs to unite a divided party and an even more polarized nation the far from london. it was a 2 horse race but there's only ever being one front runner boris johnson

demolished his rival foreign secretary jeremy hunt with double the number of votes to become leader of the conservatives and on wednesday the country has now repair a party and the nation torn apart by bricks it deliver bricks it unite the country and defeat jeremy corbett thank you i know i know someone somewhere has already pointed out that deliver in the night and defeat was not the perfect acronym for an election campaign since our portion of its bills dud but they forgot the final easy my friends either energize and i say i say to all the doctors dude we are going to energize the country we're going to get bricks it done on october 3rd it was going to take advantage of all the opportunities that it will bring in a new spirit of can do boris johnson has a clear mandate amongst conservatives to lead the party but his promise of a do or die no deal breaks it all october the 31st popular among his supporters has

polarized even panicked his opponent doesn't have the qualities to make any kind of prime minister having no standards whatsoever of trades and the best city and integrity i think it's very easy to see the similarities between from morris the both. of us told of. and they both seem to fly by the seat. and make up the policy as they go along there is a wave of worry about what boris johnson's leadership might look like also a huge amount of anger directed at grassroots members of the conservative party i'm conservative m.p.'s from making with the most divisive figures in modern british politics the next leader of the country earlier in the day cabinet ministers arrive for to reason may's last meeting as prime minister many of these ministers will be asking how johnson can succeed where to resume my failed we're actually in just the

same boy and just the same political paralysis as we thought before and unless boris yeltsin is through some sort of political alchemy able to unlock that then given that he's raised expectations pretty high the recriminations equally could be venomous one big expectation raised by johnson is of a new brakes a deal with brussels the use repeatedly said it won't reopen negotiations but as the blocks chief bracks it negotiated tweeted the use ready for dialogue moments after johnson's win was declared bookmakers were taking bets on his demise $5.00 to $1.00 to be the shortest serving prime minister ever he could face a no confidence vote if he fails to deliver on his promises for many months johnston's been on the political margins criticising the government and often courting controversy now at the center of british politics everything appears to have changed but when it comes to breaks it many question whether anything will change at all leave al-jazeera under. we have correspondents covering both ends of

this developing story natasha butler is standing by for us in paris with the latest european reaction 1st live to london my colleague laurance lee who's outside westminster for us here on the news out laurence the arithmetic the sums don't add up in the house of commons how does he deliver brags that. well you know. this is the problem and the question that everybody is really asking themselves here is you know what's going on inside boris johnson's head which boris johnson is going to turn up as prime minister because even though isn't even saying in that report he's absolutely nailed this is colors to the mast in some subjects a delivery by the end of october he just has this backstory of changing his mind and there are all these issues. to do with trust and you know you you just don't know when when if and when he comes to speak to the european union and explain to him this is how it's going to be whether he just might have an about turn what the

consequence of that might be the 2nd sound of a mile away to one of our one of our breakfasts and list him brains of brains of. which boris johnson's you to do you think's going to turn out well and bank but based on it with 3 key this morning when he said the no warning putting himself as a monopoly on wisdom it is easy to think being a little bit a little bit more yes a bush on it isn't a stupid person he knows the same things apply to him is to to reason may. want to keep their deal they spent 2 years negotiating the parliamentary numbers are roughly the same as treason may faced a face exactly the same problem but potentially is someone they can sell and communicate the merits of a deal the merits of a compromise in the way that reason they can and potentially can sell the merits of no deal kennie's is going to the majority of next week on to the merits of no deal but we're seeing people like philip hammond the chancellor of the exchequer is going to resign and not be part of a boris johnson government they giving him time to. because they know if he tries

to push for a deal tries to push for that compromise potentially he's someone that can sell it to those lead voting m.p.'s those lead by to conservative party members and those lead votes in the country in the way that no one else cares so what does that compromise look like to does the u.k. leave the political union but keep everything else intact for whatever length of time afterwards the treaty that's negotiated by juries in may wouldn't change so it can be really it's it's always difficult to see and difficult to envisage how far as johns you could sell this treaty but he has already voted for in parliament a number back in march when it came down to the ultimate crunch he did vote for this treaty in parliament whether he can ultimately. it as prime minister is a big compromise to get brain out the european union keeping those breaks it m.p.'s on side and also getting some remains to vote for it if he can get anywhere with the european union and he just says look chaps you know dunkirk spirit retreat retreat for the time being and then we'll fight them on the beaches another day easy just eat just gets in the face by the bricks apart and doesn't the yes or the

alternative scenario is he goes for this keeps going goes for the no deal and has the buffers of parliament percival and then is forced into an election and then the really interesting thing is whether he can soak up the party votes again who are those up been lost by the conservative party and that's why he's won the leadership contest because he can promise he has promised he'll get all those votes back from niger for raj and when they win a majority in the country ok just a very quick will without some of the touches about silk about from from from from from the continent. you know he's not a details man the european union does nothing but detail can he actually get anywhere when he goes to see these people do you think his style isn't suited to brussels it's unlikely you'll be out to get any change of any meaningful nature to the withdrawal of the man or anything like that it's just whether you can bluster that that failure as a victory if you like that doesn't sound very promising from the from where we're standing here that that's you lawrence thanks very much ok let's take you live to paris to get the european reaction certain attacks are not big on details as we

were hearing from the house of commons there in other words he's known to be a little bit vague can the europeans work with that. well i think that's the question that european leaders are asking because of course they are extremely concerned about brake said about the breakthrough process where does it go from here there is an october 31st deadline boris johnson has made it very clear that he's not going to shy away from a no deal but a no deal is what european leaders have been saying for months and years now it's something they want to avoid they say that is serves no one's interests is not in the interests of any e.u. member state or in the interest of britain we've been hearing from a few key european leaders the french president for example a bit earlier met with the incoming heads of the european commission. on the lead and they both said of course congratulations to boris johnson on his appointment as

the new british prime minister a man on my call then said that he looks forward to working with johnson on the brakes it's an other issues that france has collaborated with britain on including iran the e.u. main breaks it chief negotiator michel barnier also reacting you heard laurence saying that he hoped that they could now work on breaks it closely and come up with an all dili agreement i mean that's very much the spirit in which the european leaders are looking at this they are concerned of course but they're waiting to see what happens next there is perhaps one european figure that is perhaps a little bit more seeing things in the same way as boris johnson if you want to put it that way and that is the far right interior minister of italy the deputy prime minister as well matter of the he tweeted a bit earlier that the left are describing boris johnson as more dangerous than the

nice far right party about only 70 says that in his eyes makes boris johnson very likable to him indeed the sasha thank you so much. well staying with that story it is an especially challenging time for the incoming leader and therefore prime minister as we said as of tomorrow aside from facing the task of taking the u.k. out of the european union will be expected to hit the ground running on several pressing foreign policy issues mr johnson is facing an ongoing showdown with iran over the seizure of a british flag ship in the gulf to iran says its reciprocal action after british marines seized an iranian tanker off gibraltar earlier this month he will also have to work on the u.k.'s relationship with the united states relations of course soured over leaked e-mails from the u.k.'s former us ambassador which criticized president donald trump they're also tensions with china the u.k. continues to delay a decision on whether the chinese telecoms giant walkway will play a part in the u.k.'s new coming 5 g. network let's talk now to scott lucas he's editor of a world view he's also

a professor of political science and international studies at the university of birmingham scott great to talk to you again so to reserve me gone going boris johnson in angola merkel going all the top jobs at the european commission changing different faces but the fundamentals of the problems of brics it surely still the same as they've been for 3 years. oh absolutely and what you just heard from your correspondent in brussels as that despite the changes in personnel there they're sticking together they are not going to change their line on the agreement that was on the table that was repeatedly rejected by the u.k. parliament. this parade of boris johnson is probably over even before it starts because there is a stark choice here and that is either johnson goes back and accepts the deal on the irish backstop accepts 2 that deal on what is close to a customs union with europe or he shakes his 1st and says that's it we're leaving

in a no deal that would be economically catastrophic for the u.k. what compels us difficulties because we're going to go into a summer recess and then the party conferences the u.k. won't even be in a position to negotiate with the european union probably until mid september which is about 6 weeks before the deadline to go and then he's got to be seen surely to have been doing the best job he can do come the british political party season because that he will want to go from the u.c.s.c. site turn venue rallying the troops getting the loyal people truly on board so then what a 304 week timeline to deliver on halloween bricks it. it's not the emperor's got no army the problem is that he can go and talk about the jungle spirit he can go and try to invoke shakespeare if you try to work under the surface but the fact of the matter is is that the u.k. has no leverage with europe they've got no economic leverage because no deal would

be so damaging putting the country into recession they've got no political leverage with europe because one versus 27 is not good odds and the one thing that johnson tries to hold up which is a trade deal with the united states is a mess there's no way that you can even have that within 2 to 4 years his problem is ok he can be an emperor who doesn't have an army but they're going to be others who point out and that includes the brogues the party of nigel farage that will try to like him and that includes the increasing support for a main that's being galvanized by parties like the liberal democrats and the grains the only thing i think is same johnson right now is that the main opposition party the labor party is still not clearly organized in its mind on what to do to avoid the no deal crush out one last point scott what do you think you'll do with the only going iranian crisis i mean that in itself would be a big enough challenge to any incoming new conservative party to slash prime minister as i say as of tomorrow his critics might say when he was foreign secretary because of what he didn't do he was directly responsible for

a british passport holder. detention being extended behind in iran. because he made an untrue statement now as a new user harari radcliffe a charity worker not only is going to have to serve the rest of her 5 year sentence that sentence may be extended because johnson basically dropped her at it as i suppose british spy. he 1st of all he's to read his brief on what's happening with iran we all need to because it's an extremely tense situation what i wonder what he'll do is will he be guided by this weekend's cabinet meetings which i think are going to say one we need to talk about escorting the shipping through the straits of hormuz that will have to be a multinational effort to will the u.k. go to the e.u. and try to organize not only for british but european sanctions be put on iran those are the immediate questions but not only do we have the uncertainty of boris johnson jeremy hunt who ran against him is he still going to be foreign secretary and the number 2 the foreign office resigned yesterday so we're not exactly in

a very coordinated position right now but spreads it for you like a scope it's talked to as a thank you so much thank you peter. lot more still to come for you here on the news hour including these ones condemnation from across the world as israel demolishes palestinian homes in the occupied west bank. crossing the border to find work how iranian kurds are escaping the effects of u.s. sanctions. in sport we'll hear what manchester city's manager has to say about claims his team showed a lack of respect on the tour of china. ok we touched on the iranian crisis let's get more on a different aspect of that story for you iranian diplomats that you in vienna on sunday to meet representatives from the u.k. france germany russia and china they'll discuss how to save the 2050 nuclear deal britain's foreign secretary is calling for a european live naval mission to ensure the safety of shipping in the gulf

following the seizure of a british oil tanker iran's foreign minister has responded saying any attempt to patrol the gulf will only bring bring regional insecurity jabari has more now from tehran. iran's foreign minister mohammad javad zarif is the 1st official to comment on the latest developments out of london the foreign minister tweeted that the may government seizure of iranian oil at behest of the us is piracy pure and simple i congratulate my former counterpart boris johnson becoming u.k.'s prime minister iran does not seek confrontation we have 1500 miles of persian gulf coast line these are our waters and we will protect them his sentiments are shared by other high ranking officials in iran we've heard from the 1st vice president who also said that the suggestion of a coalition force to patrol the waters of the strait of hormuz and guarded the

ships that pass through it is absolutely not necessary and that iran is capable of providing security to the ships in the strait of hormuz and it is up to iran and the regional countries to ensure the safety of their waters meanwhile we've understood that there has been the extraordinary meeting called in vienna for sunday july 28th between the remaining signatories of the j c p oh wait that's a 2015 nuclear agreement the iranians will want to discuss the lack of commitment to the nuclear agreement by the remaining signatories mainly the european ones that's britain france and germany on tuesday the iranian president has this bachelor that heating foreign minister. with a letter for french president. she will deliver this letter to the president in paris we understand that this is really the last ditch effort to try and salvage

what is left of this 2015 nuclear deal because iran is insisting that it will continue to scale back its commitments every 60 days until it sees some tangible results on what the europeans have been promising under this deal. well with the economy and iran suffering because of u.s. sanctions many iranians crossing the border to find work in northern iraq and reports now from a bill in the kurdish region the common language makes it easier for them to and money for their families back home. each room shot from gardy wallpapers is bringing him closer to the day he can afford to marry his fiance the money he earns as a handyman in northern iraq is also supporting his parents at home in iran. how did it go it's been 5 years working in native people before this kind of work wasn't popular now there's more of a demand and business is getting better every 3 to 4 months i take

a break and go back to iran because i have a work permit. but these iranian kurds aren't so lucky without work permits they enter the kurdish region in iraq on one month tourist visa work every day they can return home and repeat the process mohammad faruq says a lucrative month of work puts $800.00 in his pocket. i know it's very hard for me to be away from my family but it's harder not to have any money to spend or to buy food what's better being away from your family and having money or being with your family and having no money the government doesn't keep an official count of the number of iranian workers here but says there are hundreds and that number has tripled in the last 2 years as iran's economy suffers from u.s. sanctions the director of labor in the semi autonomous kurdish region expects more iranians to seek work here will be taking advantage of an economy on the rebound

following several tough years. yet he had attempted i proposed a plan to address the situation with iranian workers it would match them with jobs we have a need for we don't want to close the border with a. but we must organize a situation that effects the local workers greatly and we have to give them a priority. he says for the time be the kurdistan regional government has no intention of barring these men bound by culture and language many people see these iranian kurds as their brothers and sympathize with their plight natasha going to 0. russia says it's carried out its 1st long range air 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 at any 3rd country south korea had earlier said it fired warning shots at russian military aircraft violated

its airspace both russia and china have dismissed that allegation beijing says all countries enjoy freedom of movement in the region meanwhile japan is lodging a protest saying south korean aircraft operated near doctorow island the tokyo sees as japanese territory. south korea later summoned a senior russian diplomat over that 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. kenya's finance minister has been granted bail after an unprecedented court appearance in connection with a massive corruption scandal and rewrote pleaded not guilty to abuse of power involving contracts for 2 hydroelectric dams which should get to be built catherine soy explains from kenya. henry rock which is in unfamiliar territory in a courtroom. he has been charged along with other government officials with several

a quick trial and those found guilty shields seized and stolen money returned to the public opinion of the many people being honest. people being added to the everything. and once that is old how many have been convicted something should be done. as a country we've got to move forward it's also a scandal that has been politicized some politicians i think community thought of being targeted and some individuals being used as scapegoats now many kenyans are closely watching this case and those we talked to say they want public servants who have been implicated to resign from office. kenya. reuters is reporting that nigeria's military and police have fought with a group of shia muslim protesters in the streets of the capital at least 3 people have been killed in the violence police say one of those killed was an officer to

authority is it administrative charge of this neighborhood it said it would give permission for these buildings to be constructed but the israelis said that was wrong and they had to come down. after several years of appeals israel's high court finally ruled that the demolitions would not be halted it said the owners had been given enough time to comply with the law and to tear down their own homes. these houses are permitted by the palestinian ministry of local government now the permits are being violated by the israeli occupation forces this military doesn't care about international law or human law and doesn't respect or care about any human ethics. activists groups and the palestinian authority say they're worried a precedent is being set they say israeli authorities could use the military rule to demolish more palestinian homes. we didn't know we had to be to. 250 meters

globe. al-jazeera as correspondents live and bring the stories they. have. now. let's listen and. we're at the mercy of the russian camp for palestinian refugees al-jazeera fluent in world news. welcome back you're watching news our live from doha. these are your top stories boris johnson has been elected leader of britain's governing conservative party he will therefore become the next u.k. prime minister that the shuttle to happen tomorrow he's promised to unite the

country and to get brakes it done. britain's current foreign secretary is calling for a european led naval mission to ensure the safety of shipping in the gulf following the seizure of a british oil tanker there on foreign minister has responded saying any attempt to control the gulf will only bring regional insecurity. russia says it's carried out his 1st long range air patrols with china in the asia pacific region moscow says the exercise was aimed at increasing cooperation in the region and not directed at any 3rd country south korea had earlier said it fired warning shots of russian military aircraft violated its airspace. ok let's go back to our top story we'll get a report now for you on the man who search for a place to resume a prime minister jonah hole looks at boris johnson's rise to the top job. at least if you like of places johnson and brussels have history together. and it doesn't point to a happy conclusion as a young reporter based in the city johnson specialized in sometimes fabricated

front page stories belittling european bureaucracy he's editor at the time describes johnson's willingness to tell any audience whatever he thinks most likely to please heedless of the inevitability of its contradiction an hour later so mike johnson's declarations on similarly be promises made to win over his party without the substance or detail to back them up on a basic. course be pushed into action so as to be ready to come out on october. 31st the 1st call come what may come on their way to order. harry was head of communications under boris johnson when he was mayor of london boris johnson's time at city hall showed that he's more than capable of doing detail he doesn't drown it he doesn't allow officials to come up with excuses for not doing things which is

why he delivered almost everything he promised as mir 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 and as mayor for 8 years johnson was a flamboyant salesman for the city with a self-effacing charm that indeed him to many but the challenge of downing street will far outweigh the 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 we're about to find out and frankly the way he's now been selected within the conservative party he's got very little room for maneuver so what however this journey started he is now the leader of the press a party in all but name and that's what he has to deliver or it'll 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 he'll be persuaded to opt for a soft breaks it compromise once the realities facing his heart breaks it promises become clear i think if 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 he's going to leave the e.u. on the 31st of october do what delhi fundamentally that is not an issue entirely in his gift and it wouldn't surprise me at all if behind the scenes his team are preparing for a possible general election in the autumn because it might well go wrong supporters compared johnson to winston churchill a crisis leader the e.u. won't called his bluff they suggest because no one knows what he might do next 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 die so on

november the 1st if we fall in on this sort johnson has reached the pinnacle of power in british politics wielding it won't be easy jonah ho al jazeera london. the head of the f.b.i. is testifying before a hearing of the u.s. senate judiciary committee today all the hearing is not specifically supposed to be about the investigation into russian interference in the 2016 u.s. election christopher ray has been questioned on that topic it comes a day before the man who led that investigation is due to testify everything we've done against russia has got deterred them enough all the same sions all the talk but they're still at it well my view is until they stop they haven't been deterred enough and they're still doing it yes. well they're still talking let's give you a sense of what's going on the germy meyer he's associate professor in the scholar

school of policy and government at george mason university who joins us live from washington jeremy my welcome to the news hour here and al-jazeera what's your reading of what we've been hearing so far oh great to be with you well i think what's going on is democrats are going to try and score some points because ray is in a difficult position the president has been attacking the f.b.i. as have many republicans and yet ray leads that organization deeply believes that it is a good organization so democrats are going to try to point out that the administration that ray works for has been attacking his organization ok if he's trying to point score if other people off in the shadows are trying to point score presumably that will then only end with donald trump sits and watches fox news and then comes on twitter growling at these people growling perhaps at the f.b.i. it could certainly end that way there is a lot of evidence that trump doesn't like the f.b.i.

i mean he called the one of his former associates a rat for talking to the f.b.i. much like a mobster would so there's no love lost between donald trump and the f.b.i. in amongst the the narrative of claim and counterclaim to do with the original report that report that was so heavily redacted at one point in one of its aeration sure. in amongst that narrative of claim and counterclaim who's taking the more hits on this who's being more damage here. well in ray's testimony i don't think anyone's been badly damaged so far now that the republican talking points about f.b.i. surveillance some of them implicating britain rather ludicrously these have not been deeply challenge neither have the democratic talking points ray is walking a very fine line and i think he's walking very well where is the driving dynamic for this coming from because just in the past what 48 hours on twitter donald

trump's basically been saying look there was no collusion the mother report didn't damage me my base is still thinking i'm god's gift to american politics let it go and one can kind of see where they're coming from with that because we keep on seeing these hearings we keep on seeing people being interviewed on cable news in the states and there's not a silver bullet of collusion here. well that is true but i think we've raised the goalposts over and over again i mean let's remember that the 1st thing trump told us is that he and no one on his team ever talked to any russians any time ever and that it was well we want to talk to him but not about politics and that was what we talked about politics but we didn't give them any polling data and we didn't collude with them we'll see how long that stands up because some of that now isn't true so who are you going to believe the side that continually says that didn't happen and we find out it did happen that's a real credibility problem for the president jeremy can i just ask you

a quick question about boris johnson how do you think he will work on the relationship between the government in london and the donald trump white house given that mr trump's thin skin and his interpretation of the leaked e-mail story ended up with the u.k. ambassador to washington deciding to step down. oh i think it's fabulous news for trump i think it's great news for conservatives in britain that want to get along with trump these are 2 souls that move together boris and trump boris is very different from trump in the sense that he's much smarter has a much better education knows a lot more but they both have that same kind of brash style that many people like and so i expect that as trump gets along with the leader of brazil as trump gets along with berlusconi i expect trump will feel very comfortable with for us. in washington thank you. the u.s.

. on average more than a 1000 migrants are now being apprehended in mexican territory every day security and you're to a point that mexican foreign minister marcello abroad has consistently repeated use of the deployment of national guard troops as well as our enforcement of existing migratory law have led to a 36.2 percent reduction in the flow of migrants. by showing the trump administration that immigration numbers are down mexico hopes to meet the conditions of a july 22nd deadline on a deal that removed tariff threats on mexican exports to the u.s. but i spoke to mr broder just before i came here we talked about the progress we've made on migration with them to. the trade good word out there 404045. they've they've made real progress but this is a letter that the strategy of cracking down on migrants the deployment of military forces and detention of asylum seekers in southern mexico have also sparked

a concern among human rights groups immigration experts warn all of this contradicts mexico's onet national policies which promise to guarantee the rights of asylum seekers here mexico is sandwiched between 2 contradicting expectations logically this creates a complicated problem because you can't please one party without upsetting the other and in any containment measures for migrants there is a chance that human rights abuses that negatively affect migrants will occur having met the conditions set by the u.s. and reducing migrant numbers mexico has also avoided the so-called safe 3rd country negotiations the country has been avoiding as part of the agreement with the us mexico plans to continue the current strategy for another 45 days while also calling on the us to invest in a more sustainable approach which includes a development plan for the countries migrants who flee mexico committed $30000000.00 toward development projects in el salvador last month but without a strategic international development plan that includes countries like guatemala
