1st johnson was elected as the leader of the conservative. he led the campaign for bracks it now boris johnson has to deliver itself to winning the race to be where things next prime minister will once again go to believe in ourselves and what we could achieve some slumbering giant we're going to write a ping off the guy ropes soaked out negativity. that i've had to stick by watching al jazeera live from london also coming up russia carries out its 1st joint air patrol with china in the asia pacific triggering hundreds of warning shots from south korea. kenya's finance minister

pleads not guilty to corruption charges as he and 15 other officials appear in court. and wonder why don't hold his latest national assembly session in the street and spend his way to recover from this latest mass blackouts. follow the bombastic politician who led the campaign for bracks it's now has to deliver its boris johnson has won the race to lead the u.k. sorting party and will become prime minister on wednesday he's vowed to take the u.k. out of the e.u. by the end of october come what may but he also needs to unite a divided party and an even more divided nation as me baka reports. it was a 2 horse race but there's only have a been 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 is now repair a party and a nation torn apart by bricks it deliver bricks it unite the country and defeat jeremy corbett thank you no from somewhere it was already pointed out that deliver you night and defeat was not the perfect acronym for an election campaign since you are pushing its bills dud but they forgot the final easy my friends the 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 he 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 among conservatives to lead the party but his do or die promise to leave the e.u. on october 31st even without a deal has polarized and panicked many of his opponents. he doesn't have the qualities to make any kind of prime minister having no standards whatsoever of

trades and the best city and take me today i think it's very easy to see the similarities between from a forest the both. of us told. 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 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 for making were the most divisive figure is in modern british politics the next leader of the country earlier in the day cabinet ministers a rifle to reason may's last meeting as prime minister many of these ministers will be asking how johnson can succeed. to resume a 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. given that he's raised expectations pretty hard the recriminations 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 breaks 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 johnson'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 bracks it many question whether anything will change at all leave barca al-jazeera under a mistake he live to out a series anderson's in westminster in central london andrew johnson's got a massive challenge ahead he's got a tiny minority and he's got

a conservative party that still deeply divided about this issue of bracks it. most certainly certain even more divided now than for a very long time with me to handle some of these issues as tobias i would minister of state at the defense ministry thank you for joining is tell me this mission impossible isn't it it seems that way but we have a new prime minister and i think it's the duty of every member of parliament senate conservatives to try and support the prime minister because of the biggest challenge of the next 100 days poses which is of course to deliver bracks it that's what we need to focus on many of your colleagues are intent on resigning on wednesday before the new prime minister gets in place what about yourself and what do you think of what will that doing you are we were remain a. people people are concerned about the prospects of no deal and let's be frank if we were to entertain no deal if we were to back away from the e.u.

without an arrangement they would be colossal for the british economy and it would not be good for europe as well i'm more optimistic i believe with the newly leader with the energy we can actually reach out to our coalition partners the d.v. we can reach across the aisle to labor there are about $2526.00 votes and piece there that want to support a brics it deal i believe we can make this happen it will require a bit of shuttle diplomacy with berlin with paris with it with brussels but if it doesn't you're prepared to go along with it you're saying it right now if i'm saying let's make this work ok we have the basis of the agreement there with the withdrawal agreement that theresa may put together we can use that to with the goodwill that we see the energy that we saw in the the prime minister elect speech today in his acceptance speech that energy isn't isn't necessarily a whole politics is about shield it's partly about it i was in the armed forces myself an energy determination grit tenacity that's what you know we've we've

required here we also absolutely need a plan and i've just developed out where the numbers on the arithmetic in parliament doesn't she. when there's something that is posing on many m.p.'s minds if we don't get this right my party will be pushed into the abyss for a decade we will not be in power generating the coal bin will be running number 10 and that scares many many people tell me this on a separate angle together the situation with iran the tank a crisis has become is crucial it's a crucial area that needs immediate attention it's possible that the the post johnson may make an early appointment of a foreign secretary do you think that james hunt has this for. the saudis the jeremy hunt would be prepared to take that pose to think that this could be some sort of white flag i'm slack i'm sure it will be i think obviously for the new prime minister to determine his team but you touched on something very important we are entering

a new period of instability and this is been prompted by the sanctions battle that we're seeing with the united states itself self of now spilled into threats against our tankers we're sending assets to the region we're working with our european partners as well to make sure any british flag ships are safe but ultimately it's a bigger question for the new incoming prime minister what role does britain play on the international stage we are good friends with many allies in the gulf we are good friends with the united states but the world is changing around us and many of us believe that we should be playing a more progressive more involved role in shaping the world around us quickly before we go germany hunter was staying on as for the 2nd as a film i gave but i'm sure he was he was he was invited to do that part of that unity government then jeremy hunt i'm sure would be delighted to stay there thank you very much indeed for that and now back to you felicity in the studio. well the navy appointed the e.u. commission chief has warned of challenging times ahead she congratulated boris

johnson on the law and says both sides have a duty to deliver a good deal of the u.k.'s exit from the block the touch of battle has european reaction now from paris. well the main concern for many european leaders really is what world boris johnson's appointment mean for the briggs's process boris johnson has made it very clear that he doesn't wish to shy away from a deal breaks it but a no deal breaks it is something that most european leaders have been saying all along for months and for years it's something they would like to avoid they say that it doesn't serve the interests of any member state in the european union and that it doesn't serve the interests of britain and they've worked very hard to push away a no deal scenario so they'll be very worried about boris johnson's next move now we've heard from some key european figures the french president tomorrow mark hall who congratulated boris johnson on his appointment as britain's new prime minister

he said he looked forward to working with not just on prated but on other issues in which france has collaborated with britain very closely such as iran we also heard from the main break that negotiator michel barnier who said that he looks forward to now completing the brakes a process if you like to an orderly breaks it also heard from another european leader who took perhaps a different angle on boris johnson's appointment sylvaine it actually is the a far right interior minister of italy also italy deputy prime minister and he said in a tweet that because boris johnson was seen by the left wing as a dangerous more dangerous than motto sylviane is far right party that so made boris johnson for matters of any a very likable character indeed u.s. president donald trump has praised boris johnson's election saying he's popular because he's seen as britain's trump. really good man is going to be the

prime minister of the u.k. now for. now thanks mark. the same britain drop the drop and speak were saying that's a good thing that they like the office there that's what they want to. get it done for us is good is going to do a good job or boris johnson might think dude is a winning acronym but many were quick to pounce on his choice of words the journalist jane merrick tweeted dude where's my 350000000 a week for the n.h.s. referencing johnson's now debunked claim during campaigning for the bracks it referendum many people compare the u.k.'s prime minister designate to u.s. president donald trump are not always flattering comparison and president trump's daughter ivanka also came under fire when she congratulated johnson for becoming the next prime minister of the united kingston and surprisingly the tweet was for

country but south korea said the aircraft had violated its airspace both russia and china have dismissed allegations beijing says all countries enjoy freedom of the woods in the region well south korean a to some of the senior russian diplomats 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 or isolated on the program is it safe to eat flip flopping by nepal's government over testing the dangerous pesticides leaves many confused and angry and how bad driving helped australian police make one of the easiest drug busts.
