00:30...announced his resignation yesterday, paving the way for what is expected to be an orderly transfer of power to frontrunner
00:37Andy Burnham, who could become Britain's seventh leader in 10 years as early as next month.
00:43In an emotional speech, Starmer said he had listened to his governing Labour Party and realized that he was no
00:49longer the man who should lead it into a national election due in 2029.
00:54We'll have insights from our analyst, Merit Gwynne Jones.
00:58The dispute that keeps escalating.
01:01Poland's center-right government is excusing Nationalist President Karo Nowrowski of making a strategic blunder by stripping Ukrainian President Volodymyr
01:10Zelensky of Warsaw's most prestigious medal, the Order of the White Eagle.
01:15That's the latest twist in the bitter historical feud opposing two countries that should be allies united against Russia.
01:24We'll have the latest with our correspondent Sasha Vekulina.
01:27And the visitor from Astana, the President of Kazakhstan, Kasim Jomartokayev, is in Brussels.
01:35His goal? To deepen cooperation between the European Union and Kazakhstan, a key geopolitical partner in Central Asia.
01:42The EU is already Kazakhstan's largest trading and investment partner, and while Kazakhstan's economy is being modernized and diversified, there
01:52are opportunities for both sides.
01:54How? We'll ask Kazakhstan's ambassador to the EU.
01:59But first, the political turbulence in the United Kingdom.
02:03On this day 10 years ago, the UK voted to leave the European Union, triggering one of the most tumultuous
02:10episodes in its political history.
02:12A decade on, and the political volatility has not gone anywhere.
02:17Yesterday, Prime Minister Kirstama announced his resignation on the doorsteps of 10 Downing Street, paving the way for the seventh
02:25UK Prime Minister in just 10 years.
02:29For the latest, I'm glad to be joined now by our correspondent, Merit Gwynne-Jones.
02:33Good morning, Merit.
02:35Merit, we sat here yesterday to make sense of it all, and here we are again.
02:41So why don't you bring us up to speed on what happened during the past 24 hours?
02:45So, Stefan, yesterday, as you know, we saw that famous lectern again outside 10 Downing Street, and another Prime Minister
02:54saying that he is stepping down.
02:56We've seen this scene an unusual number of times in the past 10 years.
03:00In fact, as you mentioned earlier, just 10 years ago to this day, we had the Brexit referendum, and a
03:05couple of days later, David Cameron famously stepping down.
03:08And 10 years on, it feels a little bit like deja vu.
03:10And we've seen this moment so many times in the past 10 years, a real indicator of the political volatility
03:17that Brexit arguably has triggered in the country.
03:21Let's take a listen to what Prime Minister Kirstama had to say yesterday.
03:43He then set out a timeline, Stefan, for his departure, saying that nominations for the next leader of the Labour
03:49Party and the country would be open in July,
03:51and the next Prime Minister would be in office at the latest by September.
03:56But then, during the day, it became increasingly clear that that could happen sooner rather than later.
04:02And that's because the favourite, the frontrunner, Andy Burnham, is looking increasingly likely to run uncontended.
04:09His most likely challenger, who was the former Health Secretary, West Streeting, who stepped down from Starmer's government in May,
04:16he said yesterday he was, in fact, putting his weight behind Andy Burnham for Prime Minister.
04:22And at the moment, it doesn't look likely that anyone is going to run against Burnham,
04:27meaning that he could be fast-tracked into 10 Downing Street, Stefan,
04:31and we could see a new Prime Minister in office as early as three and a half weeks from now.
04:37And Marek, were there any reactions in Brussels?
04:40And do they know Andy Burnham here?
04:42Well, I think it's fair to say that EU officials and diplomats here really don't know him very well.
04:47Domestically, in the UK, he's a very recognisable figure.
04:50You know, he presents himself as kind of the man of the people, close to the people.
04:55While internationally, he's not really a statesman.
04:57And here in Brussels, certainly, he doesn't have any big recognition.
05:01That's a challenge because Starmer did really build his profile.
05:04And that was really clear from the outpour of messages we saw from EU leaders yesterday congratulating Starmer on the
05:11work he did
05:12to kind of bolster European cooperation, bolster Europe's defences and so on.
05:17So Andy Burnham has his work cut out there.
05:19But what is clear as well is that the timetable now is very tricky internationally
05:24because Starmer is likely to still be in office when there's a NATO summit in Ankara in early July.
05:30Also, when President Macron of France gathers the coalition of the willing for Ukraine on the 13th of July.
05:36But if this is fast tracked, as we expect it to be done,
05:40it could mean Burnham being sworn in as early as the 18th of July.
05:44That's just before that EU-UK summit was meant to take place in Brussels here on the 22nd of July.
05:52That's now in major doubt.
05:54So let's take a listen to what a European Commission spokesperson had to say on this.
05:58We are reassessing with President Costa and the UK the opportunity of still holding the summit
06:05as had been announced last week.
06:08And we will take it from here.
06:11Stefan, there's been months of negotiation running up into the summit.
06:15There were hopes to close a series of deals to bolster agri-food exports, for example,
06:19also to set up a youth experience scheme between both sides.
06:23That is looking on the rocks right now.
06:26And the question here in Brussels, I think, is what is Andy Burnham's EU policy?
06:30Will he continue with Stammer's legacy?
06:32That's quite possible.
06:34Or will he take a slightly different approach?
06:36So I'm sure that many here in Brussels, Stefan, have been probably Googling Andy Burnham
06:41and trying to find out as much as they can about him and about his Brexit policy.
06:46By the way, so did I yesterday.
06:48Mary Gwynne-Jones, thank you for this update.
06:51Much appreciated.
06:52Ten years after Brexit, Britain is still asking itself the same fundamental question.
06:58Was leaving the European Union worth it?
07:00Public opinion remains deeply conflicted.
07:03While many Britons now see Brexit as a mistake, divisions persist over what comes next.
07:10Jakub Janas about what Brits really want.
07:15They say there are three kinds of lies.
07:18Lies, damned lies, and statistics.
07:21And while the numbers can rarely capture the raw complexities of what we want,
07:25what we really, really want,
07:26they carry an inescapable weight when a referendum locks them into law.
07:30And exactly ten years ago today,
07:32the United Kingdom made a historic choice that permanently reshaped Europe and the UK itself.
07:37And ten years later, that debate, like it or not, is still alive.
07:41But Britons do not need another European to tell them what they want.
07:45So your Continental reporter has prepared something far more British.
07:49A review.
07:51A recent study by Ipsos and King's College London reveals a public deeply conflicted.
07:56And today, almost half of Britons state Brexit is going worse than expected,
08:00compared to just 9% who view it as a success.
08:03But here is a catch.
08:04The data exposes a fascinating contradiction.
08:07A majority now agree that Britain should allow EU citizens to live and work in the UK
08:11in exchange for single market access,
08:14which is quite a rise since the vote.
08:17However, and that's very important,
08:19the moment the argument shifts from economics to sovereignty,
08:22the math changes completely.
08:24A majority still prioritizes full control over immigration,
08:27even if it means a more limited relationship.
08:30Finally, Britons openly desire closer alignment on specific issues,
08:33with almost half backing a stronger trading relationship
08:36and a clear majority demanding a joint security partnership.
08:40However, to ever get back in, the UK needs total unanimity.
08:44Let me explain.
08:45All 27 EU member states hold an absolute veto.
08:48A single no from any capital locks the door permanently.
08:52And here goes the ultimate paradox.
08:55Inside the bloc, Britons were bound by European rules,
08:57but help right them.
08:59Outside the bloc, they remain completely dependent on the exact same rules,
09:03with absolutely zero say in their creation.
09:06So it turns out taking back control just meant hunting the EU the remote control.
09:12But hey, at least they got that £350 million a week for the NHS.
09:17Right?
09:23Jakubianas reporting.
09:25And now to the bitter historical feud between Ukraine and Poland
09:28that is challenging the alliance between the two countries,
09:32despite their shared war against Russia.
09:34The dispute centers on Kiev's renaming of an army unit after a nationalist force
09:40responsible for World War II atrocities of Poles, according to Warsaw,
09:45which has soured relations and exposed rival historical interpretations.
09:49The severity of the diplomatic fallout will likely become clear soon
09:53when Ukrainian President Zelensky decides whether to attend this week's Ukraine recovery conference
09:59in the northern Polish city of Gdansk.
10:03For more on this, I'm joined by our correspondent,
10:05Sasha Vakulina.
10:07Good morning, Sasha.
10:07So it's not only Zelensky's participation in this conference that is somewhat up in the air,
10:13but a close aide to the president of Poland has claimed that Karol Noworowski
10:20has not received an invitation.
10:22What's happening here?
10:23Indeed.
10:23This is the latest in this patch, Stefan,
10:27with Noworowski's senior aide saying that there was no invite.
10:31So he stated that president did not receive, wasn't invited.
10:37So he's not going to the event to which he wasn't invited by Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
10:43And this is where we see the internal Polish politics as well,
10:46with the fingers being pointed at Donald Tusk.
10:50Now, the senior aide also said that none of the staff from the presidential office of Noworowski
10:55are going to attend.
10:56Now, the reaction in Kiev was very cautious when asked about it.
11:01Vladimir Zelensky's advisor, Dmytro Litvin,
11:03said that this is not up to Zelensky or Ukraine to decide that.
11:09He said that it wouldn't be appropriate for us to invite the president of Poland
11:13to an event in Polish city.
11:15It is an internal Polish matter.
11:19A few days left.
11:20We will see whether Karol Noworowski or and Volodymyr Zelensky
11:26are going to attend the conference in Gdańsk,
11:29which is a very important event,
11:30which is actually aims at mobilizing economic support and investment for Ukraine
11:34and for recovery of Ukraine, Stefan.
11:38I mean, how can the two sides get out of this number?
11:41What is the way forward here?
11:42There is no end in sight at this stage.
11:45Kiev tried to make certain steps towards Warsaw earlier in June
11:49when the head of Zelensky's administration, Karol Budanov,
11:51he traveled to Warsaw.
11:53He met with the defense minister trying to find the solution.
11:56That didn't help.
11:56There are also two political figures now in Warsaw who are trying to do something.
12:00First of all, this is the foreign minister, Radek Sikorsky.
12:03He said that the Russia's war waging against Ukraine for over four years now
12:08is way more important than what's happening now with this dispute.
12:12And also, it's again Donald Tusk, the prime minister of Poland.
12:17He did call it a strategic mistake and he said both sides will pay dearly for it
12:23in terms of the reputational geopolitics and the cooperation between the two countries.
12:28He even went as far, Stefan, as to quote Pope John Paul,
12:34calling for two sides to heal the historic grievances and to focus on the future
12:41rather than focusing on the past.
12:43So, this is one of the latest arguments coming from Warsaw trying to find the solution.
12:49Well, fascinating story, at least entertaining, right?
12:53Sasha Vakulina there for us.
12:54Thank you very much.
12:56The Russian war against Ukraine will go down in history as an event
13:00that forced Europe to realign its political compass
13:04and strengthen its international partnerships.
13:06One of these partners is Kazakhstan, a former Soviet republic in Central Asia,
13:11about 10 hours by plane from Brussels.
13:14Rich in natural resources and energy,
13:16the country is gaining in economic and political influence
13:19and is offering a lot of opportunities to European investors.
13:23Now, Kazakhstan's president, Kasim Jomar Tokayev, is in Brussels for a two-day visit.
13:30Earlier, I spoke to the head of Kazakhstan's mission to the EU, Roman Vasilenko,
13:34and I asked him about Tokayev's message to Europe.
13:39His message is that we have done a lot, but we can do much more.
13:44Kazakhstan already is one of the largest suppliers of energy to Europe.
13:48It's the third largest supplier of crude to the European Union.
13:52Kazakhstan is also a major partner for the critical raw materials development in the future.
13:57And Kazakhstan, a country that develops AI, is also a partner in AI development.
14:02But on a political level, his message is that the European Union is important for Kazakhstan
14:08as one of the key strategic partners for our country globally.
14:13We are in the heart of Eurasia.
14:15We bother Russia.
14:16We bother China.
14:17But we would like very much to strengthen our mutually beneficial ties with the European Union.
14:23Speaking about these ties, trade between Kazakhstan and the EU has grown substantially in recent years,
14:32and Kazakhstan has attracted significant European investment.
14:36Now, which sectors beyond energy offer the biggest untapped opportunities for EU investors?
14:44Indeed.
14:45Kazakhstan now attracted 210 billion US dollars from the European companies.
14:53And mostly in energy.
14:55I grant you that.
14:56But the most promising in the future, and already now, are investments in trade,
15:02I'm sorry, in transport and logistics, in critical raw materials, in AI, in green hydrogen,
15:09and in green energy generally, as well as in finance,
15:14because we've built Astana International Financial Center,
15:17which already is home to 5,800 companies from around the world.
15:24You mentioned it, Kazakhstan possesses significant reserves of rare earths and other critical minerals.
15:32How can Europe make the most of these critical mineral supplies, and what does Kazakhstan offer?
15:39Well, Kazakhstan already produces 21 out of 34 critical raw materials that the European Union identifies as such in the
15:48Critical Raw Materials Act.
15:49What we bring to the table is our openness to cooperation on a mutually beneficial basis, and our message is
15:57simple.
15:58You bring investment and technologies, you not only extract, but process, critical raw materials in Kazakhstan,
16:06and we both reap benefits from that.
16:09So already, one big project in Kazakhstan is identified as a strategic project by the European Commission.
16:16That's a project that, according to Ursula von der Leyen, will be producing 100,000 batteries worth of graphite for
16:26electric vehicles a year, once it's online.
16:28And this is just one example of the many to come.
16:32As you know, Europe is desperate to diversify away from Russian energy dependence.
16:39Is Kazakhstan prepared to become a major long-term energy partner for the EU, or are there limits of what
16:48you can do?
16:49Well, we are already, as I said, one of the three largest suppliers of crude to the European Union.
16:56There are limits, because the limits have to do with the amounts that we can produce domestically in terms of
17:04oil production,
17:05and there are limits in terms of transportation capacities.
17:11But we are working to expand this number.
17:13Already, we supply 65 million tons of oil to the European Union, but it can grow to about 100 million
17:20tons in the next four or five years.
17:24But it's not just about oil.
17:26As I said, it's about hydrogen.
17:28We are about to produce 2 million tons of green hydrogen a year since 2030, with the help of the
17:36German-Swedish company.
17:37So, we will be supplying other kinds of energy resources to the European Union,
17:44and we're keen to remain this important strategic partner for the European Union in its energy security.
17:54Kazakhstan's ambassador Roman Vassilenko.
17:57And now the moment you have really been waiting for.
18:06It's the World Cup, of course.
18:08Now, superstar Lionel Messi beat competent but blunt Austria 2-0.
18:13The Argentinian attacker has broken Germany's Miroslav Klos' record as the all-time leading goal scorer at a World Cup.
18:21Messi scored a hat-trick against Algeria last week to match the 16-goal record.
18:26His strikes against Austria took him into the lead.
18:28Expect more to come when Messi plays against Jordan next.
18:32And another top star had a good night.
18:34Kylian Mbappé scored France's first two goals against harmless Iraqis,
18:39who spent most of the match chasing the ball.
18:41Final result 3-0.
18:43Mbappé's goals came nearly three hours apart after thunderstorms in the Philadelphia area
18:48delayed the second-half kickoff by a shade under two hours.
18:52That means France has qualified to move on to the last 32,
18:56as well as fellow Group I team Norway, who beat Senegal 3-2.
19:01The Nordics Manchester City striker Erling Haaland scored twice and has now scored four goals in two matches,
19:08twice as many as any other Norwegian player in World Cup history.
19:12How about that?
19:12And finally, Algeria kept their World Cup dreams alive by beating Jordan 2-1 for the Jordanians.
19:19It was a frustrating evening.
19:21They've given a good account of themselves, but it's their first World Cup ever.
19:26We know how tough it is to get points on the board.
19:29On the menu tonight, Portugal against Uzbekistan.
19:33England versus Ghana.
19:34Panama faces Senegal and Colombia meets Congo.
19:38That's it for today.
