this is e w news live from birth lead boris johnson calls on brussels to reopen the braggs it deal. with the group of 3 would negotiate to try my previous answer has been 3 times rejected by the stars it's too dark to boot to this caller. and to discuss. but he also said that he is preparing to crash out of the e.u. with out a deal to get reaction and analysis from london. also coming up celebrations on the
3:01 pm
streets of puerto rico after governor we cardozo you know announced his resignation it comes after the week of chat messages between him and members of his administration that revealed a shocking contempt for the public and harris has a record breaking temperatures of 41 degrees celsius as the heat wave spreads across europe and people do their best to stay cool. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program the u.k.'s new prime minister boris johnson has just given his 1st address to parliament offering a sweeping optimistic vision of a britain outside of the e.u. he outlined his approach to bragg's it rejecting the current divorce deal as unacceptable and appealing to brussels to reopen negotiations at the same time he made it clear that he is. not afraid of
3:02 pm
a no deal scenario the minister was forthright boris johnson making his 1st address to parliament as prime minister he repeated his promise to execute brigs that by october 31st under any circumstances. i would prefer to leave the e.u. with a deal i would much prefer. i believe that it is possible even at this late stage and i will work back hard to make it happen. but certain things need to be clear the withdrawal agreement negotiated by my previous answer has been 3 times rejected by this house its terms are unacceptable to this parliament and to this country but we take european union he says should rethink its refusal to renegotiate to us we must turbo charge our preparation if they do you know if they do not we will of course have to leave the u.k. without an agreement under article 50. the u.k.
3:03 pm
is better prepared for that situation than many believe. the opposition says johnson is setting a dangerous course that has called for a new public vote and if the country is deeply worried that the new prime minister overestimates himself those recklessly advocating jail won't be the ones who lose out if the prime minister has confidence in his plan once he's decided what it is he should go back to the people with that plan earlier johnson's cabinet met for the 1st time they've been labelled team leave dominated by hard line breaks it is johnson has set his government on a course for a tussle with brussels. let's bring in barbara vale who is standing by now outside of parliament and barbara boris johnson says that this is the 1st day of a new approach and it certainly is isn't it. it's quite hard line if that's
3:04 pm
what you mean sarah and of course she puts the pistol to brussels and said give me what i want script the irish back stop or else and or else it's quite clear we've heard it britain would crash out of some european union with how to deal with all the consequences it has for both sides but particularly for britain of course per chance and lawsuits those over the serious economists here say that in no way do you breaks it could change the british economy and cause it to lose about 13000000000 pounds but those have figures that boris johnson of course doesn't want to hear nor would he mention them he's sort of says it's all going to be great if you only optimistic enough that smallest position he puts himself in and we have to ask ourselves is there any room actually in brussels for maneuver is there really any room room left for compromise or is he in fact headed straight into the no deal
3:05 pm
breaker bar for how is brussels likely to react to you think i mean you've spent a lot of time there. been there done that and of course is what brussels says at this point in time because we've been through this whole rigmarole world was dominant crap news no now foreign minister here used to be bracks administer last year in and he was in brussels at the negotiating table and they've sort of pulled their irish backs up force in fact and force them back and he said of course britain can't accept it and they use it but we have to have it we have to protect ireland and they keep borders open and so all these arguments have been exchanged really acknowledge the m i mean it's and they've been repeated hundreds of times so the question really is is within boris johnson is really very very sort of new and strict and seemingly harsh redlines is there actually somehow a bit of room where you could say ok we had some embellish meant we makes this so
3:06 pm
the. suster we had a timeline something that he could then say yeah big victory i can take this home and we can pass the surprise element nobody knows at the moment barbara what do you think that we could see over the next couple of months domestically on the political front there in the u.k. because i mean we have boris johnson for example firing half of theresa may is parliament we also know that he has a divided parliament there's a lot of speculation that in fact what he could want is new elections. yeah also has an incredibly divided party because if you look at this cabinet it's full of bricks cheers it's full of hard liners right wingers and the more moderate album and that was present on the trees in a monastery one of them had to leave and was sacked so he really made up his mind what he wants what he wants from his cabinet and he has really shown as the
3:07 pm
direction he's going in now he also knows that he has only a majority of 2 that counts for nothing even in the best of times to people who would not be present all would not vote for him so he is really balancing on a knife edge and many say use a ready preparing for snap elections because he has surrounded himself with people from the leave campaign the referendum in 201616 will lead him and the kid paid to success then and he wants them to help him to win in the general election now that is a bit further down the road it might happen maybe in october if things really are set to explode or implode here in westminster it is an absolute possibility of a 0 in london thank you. let's get a quick check now of some other stories making news around the world 3 separate explosions have rocked the afghan capital kabul one was a suicide bomber and targeted a bus with afghan government workers the explosions left at least 7 people dead and
3:08 pm
dozens wounded no one has claimed responsibility. south korean's ministry of defense has reported that north korea has fired 2 short range missiles from its east coast into the sea it's pyongyang's 1st missile test since leader kim jong un and donald trump agreed to revive nuclear talks last month they come just before plant a joint us south korean military exercises. in honduras more than 28000 people have fallen ill with dengue fever at least 50 have died so far health authorities describe it as the worst emergency in the country and the. the last half century things could deteriorate further because the rainy season begins in just a few months and that will provide fertile conditions for the mosquitoes that spread the disease. to puerto rico now where the governor ricardo rosalio has announced that he will resign it comes after mass demonstrations in the capital san juan provoked by an exchange of offensive chat messages between roselle yo and
3:09 pm
colleagues at the top of the government when the messages leaked many puerto ricans demanded that the politician should step down. it's a quiet but tense moment as protesters listen to this latest announcement but. then the jubilation takes over the streets of san juan puerto rico's governor carl rochelle your confirms he will step down at the mo i have come to the following decision with sadness i hereby announce that i will resign from the position of governor effective on friday august 2nd 2019. at 5 in the afternoon. and his decision to resign or so you're just giving in to the pressure of mass protests that have mounted in the past 2 weeks they were set off by a leak that revealed he had exchanged offensive messages about homosexuals women
3:10 pm
and hurricane victims with his top advisors carol kerry he wanted ricky to step down not only because of all the obscene it is an insult he said on the charts but also because of over corruption we have to put up with for decades we are going ahead and getting rid of the corrupt who believe they cannot be removed this is the start of a new era within seconds they could remove a governor i hope they can also remove a fiscal control board. for 2 year old across and you had faced the possible impeachment process over the scandal with his decision now he has become the 1st chief executive to resign in the short history of. the u.s. territory which has recently struggled with both an economic crisis and corruption . this fate of spain's prime minister petro sanchez is in question after he failed to form a coalition government has vanished parliament is now holding a confidence vote for the interim leader sanchez's socialist party won the most seats but did not win
3:11 pm
a majority in the april 28th the elections and could not strike a deal with any of the other parties in the parliament the vote could mean that spain will go to its 4th round of elections in as many years. let's bring in max sander he is standing by for us at the spanish parliament in madrid so what's happening there at the moment. well sara we actually expected a final decision on the final vote by now but it seems that the members of parliament are still talking and there are the leaders of the political groups are making their their final statement some and taking their turns and taking their sweet time in doing so so the vote has been postponed the public gives us the leader over the for the for them as party the the coalition the possible coalition partner over the socialist leader petrel sanchez has made in last efforts to compromise with the governing party. and said he would not insist on
3:12 pm
it for his party to have the labor ministry. so but he still wants for that competencies in that in that level basically so until now we we were expecting that there was not going to be a simple majority here today but it seems like m.p.'s are really pushing it till the end now and anything can happen at this point and what does this mean for the potential coalition with put a loss. will it all depends on if sanchez gets the backing or not if but then most will actually decide to form a coalition with the solstice party or are not and today will only be the 1st step of they say yes and they support him because they will have to find a working agreement by next following days and see and find out what a national government could look like in the end and if there is no backing then it will be here back in september the same procedure will happen again to votes and if the situation is get better by then they will face new elections in november and
3:13 pm
that's remind us of the made point of contention between the parties. what's basically the main points or the main sticking points or it's about power it's about who gets to say what who gets which. ministry and put him most wants to have an active play here wants to be actively involved in governing the country and on the other side the sources party. says that public only wants to control him and they're trying to keep this for them. basically influencing their policies so there's a lot of distrust on both sides and. power in the end max sander in spain thank you. to somalia now where decades of war and famine have forced hundreds of thousands to flee the country more than 200000 somalis live in a refugee camp in neighboring kenya but the government there wants to close the
3:14 pm
camp so that the un's refugee agency is trying to return people to parts of somalia that are considered safe one of those areas is the southern town of kismayo where. melanie corrida balls spoke with women returning about their attempts to create a new life back home. nowadays and some modest living cooking food and selling and have very own kiosk in their home country of somalia but for most of her life 34 year old was a refugee and africa's largest refugee camp 300 kilometers away from here in kenya . i was born and camp i grew up in the camp i lived there until i got here our father died our mother died there i made it here.
3:15 pm
today in somalia though large swathes of the country continue to see violent conflict certain cities taken back from also bought control by local forces seeing tens of thousands of refugees returning to the country they once called home last majority of wretched knees from neighboring kenya have resettles here and kiss my old residence seek to overcome their violent past and build towards a hopeful future. notas husband was killed by the islamist extremists upon her return to somalia as a widow and sole carer for her 12 children motos one of the lucky ones was selected by regional authorities to live in a settlement on the outskirts of kosmina free housing and some services like basic healthcare are provided with her to still struggles to support her children so we have a lot of the new clean do what my son is now 17 years old he's
3:16 pm
a student here if he gets to university i don't think i'll be able to pay for it. on some days. oh. really i'm struggling to just feed my children who are orphaned. sarah is also one of the $53000.00 returning refugees sent back to somalia with just $200.00 u.s. dollars and a 6 month basic service package from your nature. she was not provided with housing instead she had to build herself attend sarah feels she's been left all alone with her suffering. is there anything we have not been through there is nothing we haven't experienced people robbed each other some were killed in front of you and your sisters raped right in front of you.
3:17 pm
goes home your father beat and if you watch. well there are parts of somalia continue to take steps towards peaceful recovery resources are lacking and ongoing violence has paralyzed efforts to support those most in need but the resilience of somali women fuels that determination to carry on despite all the hardship. oh yeah but somehow to all of that i have to be strong and that this after watching my husband reach out to me as he was being tailed be that as it may there is nothing i haven't seen. you know and so when we. come to. know to face many difficulties never been less they are unwilling to give up on the homeland and still hope to see a brighter future in somalia. the president of tunisia.
3:18 pm
has died at the age of $92.00 he was north africa as 1st democratically elected leader and came to power in 2014 after the country's longtime dictator was ousted in the arab spring although the end of his term saw political strife helped usher in a stable transition to democracy and was a champion of women's rights he had recently announced that he would not seek another term to allow space for young people he'd been in the hospitals and feet end of june with a severe illness. let's bring in correspondent sara marsh was in the tunisian capital tunis so what do you think his legacy is going to be. well if you get a subsidy has a history of the country since the beginning of the republic and might just be 6 when he was actually a minister of interior minister. in the sixty's on 60 s. and he just wrong withdrawn from politics under dictatorship and all 8 and only came back to the political scene and 2011 after the revolution and as you mentioned
3:19 pm
he was the 1st truly like the president to come and was remarked especially for his approach towards women's rights and the law of land heritance and he managed to keep the country together during a period of a lot of political quarrels on terrorist attacks and 20 chess team but there were also. a lot of institutional reforms and legal reforms where he has been lagging behind a lot of political finds and then has a party and with other political forces. some questions on less than on respect to constitution. now that he has passed on what does that mean for tunisia's path toward democracy going forward. well there have been elections still and when the end of the year both. presidential elections on. just announced they will meet us afternoon and propose
3:20 pm
a new sketch show because with his posse now has between 45 and 90 days to elect a new president so the presidential election for november will most probably just be advanced on the little bit and out in september or october so things are more or less on track on disc on display and how does one major issue when it comes to the legal proceedings of the fall now which the subsidy hadn't result but he was silent often because the $24000.00 constitution kristie is the creation of a constitutional court within one year and that hasn't happened and it's actually does constitutional court doesn't exist which should stay in power at the republic right now so there's a bit of confusion of how things will go forward now but most likely it will the president be the president of the parliament and will take over as an interim as an interim head of state. in tunis thank you.
3:21 pm
