compared to over forty six thousand for rival jeremy hunt. opposition labour party leader jeremy corbyn thohough called fr new general elections pointing out in a tweet the johnsons total votes represent just a tiny fraction of the uk population. and are not a mandate from the public. the next prime minister will face the same problems that dog his predecessor to reason may minority government deeply divided on how to handle breaks it stiff resistance from opposition parties and european negotiators who refused to budge on maze breaks a deal. johnson's about to deliver brings it by october thirty first do or die is unlnlikely to find traction in a parliamenent ich is already voted to rule out the possibility of crashing out without a deal. several ministers plan to resign rather than serve under johnson and a number of tory mps have vowed to resistant -- deal breaks it he keeps on insisting he wants to take us out on the thirty first of october without a deal but i can tell in now that i will not support team inn doing that.

but i don't think i'm the only conservative who's in this position safe at easy's intent his intentions and i think his period in office is going to be very short. the uk parliament is now set for a six week summer break. when it reconvenes september third johnson will have just weeks to try and and three years of political crisis? well international reaction to the new prime minister do que walls of i should expect diplomatic. but behind the scenes many a skeptical about the credentials of a man exposed as chaoticc wi. sometimes a tenuous relationship with the truth of the late doctor factored in the responses of the leaders in our next report diplomatic that's the key word. the united kingdom's getting in the urine boris johnson. and the country's neighbors sent that congratulations if you could if you look at the world how you preview. i'm very keen to work with him as soon as possible. not only on european issues and the proceeds of brexit negotiations.

also on international issues. the situation in iran. international questions the international alongside the fridge presidents the e. u. commissions president to be as well. challenging times ahead of us i think it is very important to build up. a strong and a good working relation because we have the duty to deliver something whihih is good -- for people in europe and in the united kingdom so i'm looking forward to working with them. over in brussels a set of on the lions deputy was far less circumspect in his words particularly when it came to boris johnsons promises to renegotiate the brexit deal. he took a long time deciding whether it was for against drugs it -- and now its position is clear -- i think the position of the u. is also -- the arts -- kingdom reached agreement with the european union and the european union will stick to that agreement. frfrom further afieleld congratulations to ferment talian interior minister matteo salvini who reveled in how the left wing sees johnson as more

dangerous than his arms far right to the policy. donald trump to try and then. as did a roni and foreign minister javad zarif. indicating that even be on brexit. the u. k.'s new prime minister is likely to have his work cut out not just with his neighbors. but with the u. k.'s ongoing issues worldwide. because we continue to watch old developments for you that in a london. next us president donald trump has finally appointed a defense secretary after a delay of seven months. my guest book on army veteran of foformer defense industry lobbyt one senate confirmation this choose to buy voted. ninety to eight is to be sworn in officially by the end of the day and in the longest period the pentagon has gone without a confirmed leader in its history the story -- beginning of course with jim mattis stepping down on new year's eve after successive policy differences with. donald trump. next the controversial trade deal between the eq and canada has been ratifiedd by france ina

vote in the national assembly him powers. known as s see to it was champipioned by. president emmanuel macro but many deputies voted against the deal includiding those of far lt on the far right. pharmacy in france fear that their livelihoods could be badly affected. and these fears were dismissesed by t the french government is a canadian produce imports will have to pass you standards. poll does because o on these god with this address. last summer it us to none other. it was far from a resounding win for president a mentor in my class parliamentary majority despite the republic on the moon parties strong push in favor of the emu canana trade agreement or sita. fifty two of its employees s of stained from votg nine of them voted against the bill. will you please let me k know ys this deal isn't as bad as other. but it continues the trend towards the extinction of our planet's the depletion of resources and the worsening of climate change. other party member said the agreement included all necessary

mechanisms to prevent undesired consequences. we have put in place mechanisms aimed at regularly evaluating the advantages and less favorable outcomes of treaties. in order to modify those outcomes and ultimately opponents of them if you put it down as i did. on the left much was said about the perceived irony of having climate activists greta tunes order dress parliament just hours before voting for a deal which they believe will be detrimental to the environment. do you know the power of the force is melting seventy years earlier than expected that 60% of mammals have been extinct in the past forty years. how dare you approved young? activists and on the s same day voting in favor of free trade agreement with canada. in a addition to some centrist s voted against the bill all left wing far left and far right mps also refused to endorse the agreement. see to themem very controversial to g get more of an insight -- d

across t the what this all meaes to go to the lawyer and the internatational hour traitor loe a ghost unit seems to delivery thank you much for being with the sale. christian i'm looking for your guidance on this on because trade is a really really big issue in this one is controversial -- from your legal standpoint. what does this see to deal change will begin to chchange? well you you you you certainly have -- her aununt and have read someme. very controversial complaints about -- notably the dispute resolution mechanism which is in the seat -- which is based on arbitration. on investment arbitration process. and this process has been criticized a lot a lot in the media as these days -- one has been changeded and and i i'm heo say that -- being tanisha betray shin on the investment arbitrtration iss our legal sysm which iss working which is tototally legal and whihich is l even. in order to to settle these

boots off to rule on this food between states between private investor warren states. in the seat up. it has been modified in order to be much more home the state sid. that is to say that's usually in in in not be christian each party's appoint an arbitrator. and the two of you treat all the too cool abi treat all wings arbitrate tool - -- printing the president to check. and in dc tell me can ism in fact there is a pre selection of arbitrate doll made by the state's made by the can and and by the member states of ththe u. and so were when the dispute to rise -- the private tt -- invest store has to choose in the pre seelig served. hobby treat those in these list. which arbitrate though he wants to appoint in order -- to rule on on its case and did the states witith will do the same o

it's a particular -- patricician mechanism which is much more on the state side -- in order to protect much more in fact the interest of the states he says so when i'm when i'm hearing that -- this disambiguation mechanism is not good for state then it's justt good for the multinationals companies it's i would say i could not understand that so the fears of french farmers that may be slightly misplaced and are you saying this is a way to say help say that the french. state to the other ease states combat the likes of for the big companies such as gogoogle facebookok apppple people like t or old very big companies in the food -- i rio so -- in fact yes i'm saying that to their reserve fia which is quite artificial to me becauause there is no there y re year another. another protection for a fulull file n news for a for the e. u. regulation for people in consumer in the u. so there is

no fee to have against canada. why because -- there is a specifific optical i have hehere trees and the the the the seat that treaty but it's more than two thousand pages so what i should i use an ice on the top.. side of it but they're using these industry t. about to get off to kilill which is the artie eight point. nine in which day reserve a kinda for exemption for the states to regulate step in fact all of the economy news such as the protection of public health safety environment. public morals social consumer protection protection also of cultural diversity diversity so as you can see there is a specific sector away on the state's can regulate themselves. and and the the the private companies cannot susue them. in those particular sector even the stateses our elected to have

enacted some some lows in regulation in order to protectt the people to protect jack a good tool to protect. the car to hidede they vessey tn the un food sector -- for example a private company can that sued the states -- in order to say well it's it's a it's a discrepancies in in the in the in the the the the free competition it's not possiblee. so the arbitration is quite well balanced. and even more balanced in the five all of the state so there is really no fear to have with the system which is a system which is working which is leon and which is. just so french farmers can. perhaps take heart in what's happening and have a little bit of faith louis thank youou for e today for explaining to them what is a complex and is difficult yeah it's very lucky. but no you did a really great job of getetting through -- what this is about the arbitration process that could be available that a white maybe people when they see these things fear these things wraps they shouldn't? have to do that thank you so much that's louis goes like up to national a lawyer and arbitrator joining us here live from france twenty four thank

you sir thank yoyou and eight nw she saw in a previous report here greatat a at the book addrs the french natioional assemembl. this tuesday the sixteen year old comic campaign that brave the insults. of some frerench deputies of the center right and the far right believe it all but one fire at them t to saying that the joan f arc of climate change. asas he dococtor isn't welcome n france. she's been called a prophetess in shorts and apocalyptic group. accusations reminiscent of those used against joan of arc in the fifteenth century. except that it's neither a suspected which nor an armed warrior conservative french lawmakers are freed up. but a sixteen year old climate activist. several of them boycotted her speech which didn't stop her from addressing them directly. using politicians and business leaders of attacking children instead of global warming. or maybe. yoyou are simply notot matatureh to tell it like it is even that burden you lied to o us childre.

and just f for quoting an acting on these numbers. the scientific facts. we receive unimaginable amounts of hate. as threats and tell me armed with the latest conclusions of the intergovernmental panel onn climimate changee credit tune bg import elected officials to quote unite behind science to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. the lawmaker behind the group which invited to invite to the national assembly failed her speech saying it marked a rebirth in dialogue between elected officials and young activists. leisure in this case will be the the youth said they will mobilize even more forcefully on september twentieth i think it will be a global action. during which the young activists will invite adults demobilizing with them so i think the foundation for an even stronger movement has been laid off awesome on the actual. and greta tune bird is sure to be a part of whatever's next. the sixteen year old recently told journalisists that kind of any news she's taking a pause in her high school studies next
