was rejected, that supporters have been protesting for months, calling for a complete overhaul of the political system and new election. the latest unrest in iraq is fueled by a power struggle between she and groups. let's take a look. that opposes foreign interference in local politics. he, his supporters rather mainly come from poor communities that have been a long shot out of the political system that competing against the collection of she had groups known as the coordination framework that are allied with are lined with the run. both sides have military wings with thousands of members. some of them have been involved in race, in straight fighting in baghdad. okay, we have a team of correspondence in the iraqi capital. baghdad will speak to my wife had shortly. but 1st, let's get the latest from neither court with him run con, him run. what are we expecting to happen today? ah, well,

the court should have met about an hour ago. we don't know whether they have actually begun their deliberations is interesting. this particular a court hearing isn't being televised, no media is loud. this is about as close as we're going to get to give you some geography down that road is where the supreme court actually is. it's inside the green. so normally if there's a huge amount of protesters or any sign of any kind or protest movement, they shut that road off. that hasn't happened. so they're not expecting the current levels of people being out on the street. but what are they expecting? well, they're expecting a decision whether that's going to be a postponement or a like we saw on august 31st, they said they were going to make a decision on the dissolution of parliament to day. or whether they actually say, actually we are going to dissolve parliament and then that triggers an election. we don't know what's going to happen last time. on august 31st, they met for about 90 minutes before making the decision to postpone. so they have a little bit time if there's anything to go by, but yes,

we're waiting. like many others here in a row for the supreme court to make the decision. i'm not a gambling man, i don't have a crystal ball, but according to lots of people i've been speaking to, it's likely that there may well be a postponement. simply because there is a religious corporation going on cold or to buy in which comes to then on september 17th, all of the sheer political lots of said they're not gonna take any action until september 17th. what that looks like. we don't know. so it may well be that the court simply say, okay, well we have a bit of time. let's keep talking or i'll make sure you came across that same round . com live for us in baghdad. that's cross live at to monta abdel, why head to mit is covered the raising protests. they sat as support as have taken to this straits. what's it like where you are in? is that likely to happen today? do you think bull mostly indications on the ground hearer in denote that there is disc de

escalation, at least for the time being. people are not encouraged to escalate, especially with the religious occasion there come a meridian of the 40th days of the death of a madman has seen which is flora bert for che, at muslims in iraq. remember, the 2 rival factions, both of them are to shay it. sometimes they used the same tact as they have the same religious, grand chief in another city. so it's a very special and b virgo occasion for them. so what it, what has been happening is that there is some kind of common feeling, get, apparently between all the right of affections to keep it calm at these, for the time being until they're been, which is it going to be around the 20th of this month. but meanwhile, that had been vice, that had been vices at trying to convey messages of that demand. again, yesterday, a number of political forces activists and also protested who took part in. then

last week sir, demonstrations got out and they formed what they considered some kind over a political alliance. they called it the iraqi stats. it is a kind of some replica of sadness demands, the deep demanding that remember they can only add it on the eve of this supreme court session reiterating the same demands dissolution of parliament holding carol elections and forming a crisis government to manage what they consider this transitional at pity until analytics as are held, other than that, that has also vices from the government. again affirming connie got every wine clothing that evil factions to keep it calm and to have self control in this. what the speaker of the parliament, excuse me, the speaker, the government considered as a crucial and vulnerable vulnerable stage that iraq is going get through selling is a complex situation. we appreciate the amp. a map when to abdougla had live france

in baghdad. thank you. moving on now in president vladimir putin has called sanctions against russia, a danger to the world. speaking at the east, in economic forum, and let us dog person accuse the west of undermining the global economy. he's expected to make the head of china's legislature. lee john shook, and there are reports that putin and chinese presidency. james king will meet at a summit in beckers down next month. if you do so newly harris was up of the sanctions from the west have been an aggressive attempt to get other countries to follow certain models. there are questions are in sovereignty and subordinating to their will. these are policies which have been carried out for decades. but there's been slipping away of us domination. they haven't been able to see the objective fact. if we look at recent times, the entire system of international relations is going through tectonic change in the me, poetry is the author of russia's road to war with ukraine. it says russia and china have been brought close it because of those western sanctions. it will remember

a february this year, just before russia began this invasion, and they spoke of a deep in friendship. they should have documents around this. but in the 7 will, 8 months since then, russia probably become something of a bit of embarrassment. china, in the sense of the war and ukraine is not on as well as russia we're certainly would have wanted to. but nevertheless, china and russia do find each other to be extraordinarily important because both countries are experiencing different degrees of sanctions from the usa, from the west. so in some respects they have to bind together, but it is a bit of a marriage of convenience between the 2 of them. of course there's, you'll be a sport to have a huge land border. and one final points on that, which i think is for him, really speaks to is that the infrastructure development between china and worship, for example, the power siberia pipeline and also associate to project modernization of clinical

stock as a port. it's the ability to take in call go all the things we're hearing about and travel in this region. obviously brochure is going to focus now on the development of the eastern side of the russian territory. said it's trading potential with china can actually match the, the sort of the bolted ambitions, i think, double chinese russian bilateral tribes for president. she in britain, i've spoken to basil ambitions that countries and in that same space or the economic forums. let me put in also accused ukraine of changing, developing countries out of grain shipments and sending its harvest to the european union. instead, advisor to ukraine. president says that claim is groundless. last week is ship carrying 23000 tons of you. finding grain arrived in east africa, i'm sure you're going to use if, if we did everything we could to get this ukrainian grain as we did this with turkey. just the result. if we remove turkey as an intermediary,

virtually all the grain was brought not the poor country but to the european union . the world food program speaks of the need for the poorest country on look at a 60000 tons of production. just 3 percent went to developing countries. you know what britain new prime minister lives trustee is holding her 1st cabinet meeting in day after taking over the post from johnson. she's promoted and paying 2 bath. her ladyship campaign quasi watching has been made chancellor of the exchequer. and so well, abraham and is now the new home secretary trust has promised to cut taxes, tackle the cost of living crisis and rebuild the economy as the dame bava reports from london on the as lose trust. first steps in downing street, his prime minister, who focuses on reassuring the nation, things can get better. we now face severe global headwinds caused by

rushes, a pulling war and ukraine, and the aftermath of k that now is the time to tackle the issues that are holding britain back. we need to build roads, homes, and broadband pasta. we need more investment and great jobs in every town and city across our country. we need to reduce the bad and on families and help people get on the life. of course, the pressing issue is helping people cope with huge energy price rises on that she says she understands the urgency. i will take action this week to deal with energy bells and to secure off each her energy supply. but she repeated her commitment to cutting taxes as a way of driving economic growth. trust started to tell you, flying to scotland, where she met queen elizabeth had her bow moral estate. she was formerly appointed after the monarch receive the outgoing prime ministers resignation before he from

north boars. johnson and his wife carrie said good bye to stop at 10 downing street . it was partly the party in here that led to so many of his own in peace. turning against him, his departing speech didn't reference any coven rule breaking. but rules did come up when he talked about the end of his premier ship. the baton will be handed over in waters, unexpectedly turned out to be a relay race. they changed the rules half way through, but never mind that now. johnson did promise to support least trust every step of the way, urging his party to unite after a damaging leadership contest apart from telling supporters what his government had achieved. johnson did briefly mention the financial stress facing millions of households. the sunlit uplands of the british economy, currently shrouded in folk, and the calls on the new prime minister to offer some glimpse of light are getting louder. you need to look at the world as it is rather than the world that you'd

like it to be and then you need to respond. and the big message for me is trickle down. economics does not work. the last 15 years has shown us that because economy has granite points, the cake has got bigger. but what's happened is that those are the top of taken more and the majority of people have not benefited less trust will want to offer her own vision of britain as it faces, economic and existential crises. but she must also show the public. she's able to be pragmatic and take steps to stop millions of people slipping into poverty. the challenge is immense. nadine barbara al jazeera london still ahead on al jazeera floods, bring the indian city of anglo road to a standstill. environmentalist, blame illegal construction and cor urban planning. and the solomon islands place finds elections as it's late. it gets closer to china and further away from the west. ah,
