03:17Brexit arguably has triggered in the country.
03:21Let's take a listen to what Prime Minister Keir Starmer had to say yesterday.
03:25Every decision I've taken has been about putting the country I love first.
03:32That is why I will resign as leader of the Labour Party.
03:37I have spoken to His Majesty the King this morning to inform him of my decision.
03:43He then set out a timeline, Stefan, for his departure, saying that nominations for the
03:48next leader of the Labour Party and the country would be open in July and the next Prime Minister
03:52would be in office at the latest by September.
03:56But then during the day, it became increasingly clear that that could happen sooner rather
04:02than later.
04:02And that's because the favourite, the front runner, Andy Burnham, is looking increasingly
04:07likely to run uncontended.
04:09His most likely challenger, who was the former Health Secretary, West Streeting, who stepped
04:14down from Starmer's government in May, he said yesterday he was, in fact, putting his
04:19weight behind Andy Burnham for Prime Minister.
04:22And at the moment, it doesn't look likely that anyone is going to run against Burnham, meaning
04:27that he could be fast-tracked into 10 Downing Street, Stefan, and we could see a new Prime
04:33Minister in office as early as three and a half weeks from now.
04:37And Mary, 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
04:47well.
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, and that was really clear
05:06from the outpour of messages we saw from EU leaders yesterday congratulating Starmer on
05:11the work he did to kind of bolster European cooperation, bolster Europe's defences, and
05:16so 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, because
05:24Starmer 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
05:35the 13th of July.
05:36But if this is fast-tracked, as we expect it to be done, it could mean Burnham being sworn
05:42in 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
05:51of 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
06:05summit as had been announced last week, and we will take it from here.
06:10Stefan, there's been months of negotiation running up into the summit.
06:14There 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 Starmer's legacy?
06:32That's quite possible.
06:33Or will he take a slightly different approach?
06:36So I'm sure that many here in Brussels, Stefan, have been probably Googling and
06:40and trying to find out as much as they can about him and about his Brexit policy.
06:45By the way, so did I yesterday.
06:48Merrick Wynne-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.
07:09Jakub 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.
07:48A 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.
08:29Finally, 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.
08:54Inside 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
09:08just meant hunting the EU the remote control.
09:12But hey, at least they got that 350 million pounds a week for the NHS.
09:17Right?
09:22Jakub Janos reporting.
09:25And now to the bitter historical feud between Ukraine and Poland
09:28that is challenging the alliance between the two countries,
09:31despite their shared war against Russia.
09:34The dispute centers on Kiev's renaming of an army unit
09:38after a nationalist force responsible for World War II atrocities of Poles,
09:43according to Warsaw, which has soured relations
09:46and exposed rival historical interpretations.
09:49The severity of the diplomatic fallout will likely become clear soon
09:53when Ukrainian President Zelensky decides
09:56whether to attend this week's Ukraine recovery conference
09:59in the northern Polish city of Gdansk.
10:02For more on this, I'm joined by our correspondent,
10:05Sasha Vakulina.
10:06Good morning, Sasha.
10:08So it's not only Zelensky's participation in this conference
10:11that is somewhat up in the air.
10:13But a close aide to the president of Poland
10:18has claimed that Karol Nowrowski has not received an invitation.
10:22What's happening here?
10:23Indeed.
10:23This is the latest in this patch, Stefan,
10:26with Nowrowski's senior aide saying that there was no invite.
10:31So he stated that the president did not receive, wasn't invited.
10:37So he's not going to the event to which he wasn't invited
10:40by Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
10:42And 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
10:53from the presidential office of Nowrowski are going to attend.
10:56Now, the reaction in Kyiv was very cautious when asked about it.
11:01Volodymyr 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
11:11to invite the president of Poland to an event in Polish city.
11:15It is an internal Polish matter.
11:19A few days left.
11:20We will see whether Karol Nowrowski 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
11:33and investment for Ukraine and 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.
11:45Kyiv tried to make certain steps towards Warsaw earlier in June
11:48when the head of Zelensky's administration, Karol Budanov,
11:51he traveled to Warsaw.
11:52He met with the defense minister trying to find the solution.
11:55That didn't help.
11:56There are also two political figures now in Warsaw
11:59who 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
12:07for over four years now is way more important
12:10than 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,
12:20and he said both sides will pay dearly for it
12:23in terms of the reputational geopolitics
12:26and the cooperation between the two countries.
12:28He even went as far, Stefan,
12:31as to quote Pope John Paul,
12:34calling for two sides to heal the historic grievances
12:38and to focus on the future rather than focusing on the past.
12:43So, this is one of the latest arguments coming from Warsaw
12:47trying 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
12:59as an event that forced Europe to realign its political compass
13:04and strengthen its international partnerships.
13:06One of these partners is Kazakhstan,
13:09a 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.
13:24Now, Kazakhstan's president Kasim Jomartokayev
13:27is in Brussels for a two-day visit.
13:29Earlier, I spoke to the head of Kazakhstan's mission to the EU,
13:33Roman Vassilenko, and 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
13:53for the critical raw materials development in the future.
13:57And Kazakhstan, a country that develops AI,
14:00is also a partner in AI development.
14:02But on a political level,
14:05his 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
14:19our mutually beneficial ties with the European Union.
14:23Speaking about these ties,
14:25trade between Kazakhstan and the EU
14:28has grown substantially in recent years,
14:32and Kazakhstan has attracted significant European investment.
14:36Now, which sectors beyond energy
14:39offer the biggest untapped opportunities for EU investors?
14:43Indeed, Kazakhstan now attracted 210 billion US dollars
14:50from the European companies and mostly in energy.
14:55I grant you that.
14:56But the most promising in the future and already now are investments in trade,
15:01I'm sorry, in transport and logistics,
15:05in 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
15:28of rare earths and other critical minerals.
15:32How can Europe make the most of these critical mineral supplies,
15:37and what does Kazakhstan offer?
15:39Well, Kazakhstan already produces 21 out of 34 critical raw materials
15:45that the European Union identifies as such
15:47in the Critical Raw Materials Act.
15:49What we bring to the table is our openness to cooperation
15:54on a mutually beneficial basis,
15:56and our message is simple.
15:58You bring investment and technologies,
16:00you not only extract, but process,
16:04critical raw materials in Kazakhstan,
16:06and we both reap benefits from that.
16:10So already, one big project in Kazakhstan
16:12is identified as a strategic project by the European Commission.
16:16That's a project that, according to Ursula von der Leyen,
16:19will be producing 100,000 batteries worth of graphite
16:26for electric vehicles a year, once it's online.
16:29And this is just one example of the many to come.
16:32As you know, Europe is desperate to diversify
16:36away from Russian energy dependence.
16:39Is Kazakhstan prepared to become a major long-term energy partner
16:44for the EU, or are there limits of what you can do?
16:49Well, we are already, as I said,
16:51one of the three largest suppliers of crude
16:53to the European Union.
16:56There are limits, because the limits have to do
17:00with the amounts that we can produce domestically
17:03in terms of oil 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,
17:18but it can grow to about 100 million tons
17:21in 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
17:32a year since 2030,
17:34with the help of the German-Swedish company.
17:37So, we will be supplying other kinds of energy resources
17:43to the European Union,
17:44and we're keen to remain this important strategic partner
17:48for the European Union in its energy security.
17:54Kazakhstan's ambassador Roman Vassilenko.
17:57Another 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 Closest record
18:17as the all-time leading goal scorer at a World Cup.
18:21Messi scored a hat-trick against Algeria last week
18:24to match the 16-goal record.
18:25His 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
18:37against harmless Iraqis,
18:38who spent most of the match chasing the ball.
18:41Final result 3-0.
18:43Mbappé's goals came nearly three hours apart
18:46after thunderstorms in the Philadelphia area
18:48delayed the second-half kickoff by a shade under two hours.
18:53That means France is qualified to move on to the last 32,
18:56as well as fellow Group I team Norway,
18:59who beat Senegal 3-2.
19:01The Nordic Manchester City striker Erling Haaland scored twice
19:05and 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?
19:13And finally, Algeria kept their World Cup dreams alive
19:16by beating Jordan 2-1.
19:18For the Jordanians, it was a frustrating evening.
19:21They've given a good account of themselves,
19:23but it's their first World Cup ever.
19:26And we 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.
19:35And Colombia meets Congo.
