The European Union

What The Leadership is saying: European Council President Charles Michel said: " Working Together is the only way to face common Challenges . . and bringing stability is key to overcoming them. "

The background: Rishi Sunak is a Brexit supporter, but many EU leaders will have breathed a sigh of relief that he, not Boris Johnson , is Taking Over as Prime Minister , our Europe editor Katya Adler says. He is considered a pragmatist, and EU officials will want to work with him on rising energy costs, and the difficult issue of the Northern Ireland protocol, an important trading arrangement struck during Brexit talks.

During the August leadership contest, Mr Sunak said a trade war with the EU was not in the UK's interest. But finding compromise may be politically difficult for him, and Brussels fears he might shun working with the EU to protect his political support At Home .

Ireland

But the UK government previously called for a two-tier system, with checks only being conducted on goods destined for onward travel to The Republic .

The US

What The Leadership is saying: At a White House event to mark the Hindu holiday of Diwali, President Biden described Mr Sunak's nomination as the UK's next Prime Minister a " ground-breaking milestone". The US president is holding back on formally congratulating Mr Sunak until he has met King Charles and been asked to form a government, as protocol dictates.

What The Press is saying: The New York Times lauds the " record of representation" built by the Conservatives in recent years, saying Mr Sunak's victory is another milestone in a history of promoting women and people of colour to prominent positions. The Washington Post also emphasised Mr Sunak's position as the First Person of colour to be Prime Minister . The Paper added that it would be " the First Time in history that The Residents of Downing Street are richer than those of Buckingham Palace".

Mr Sunak's remarks on Ukraine So Far have been " promising" the website said, contrasting his statement in a debate that he does not want to meet Vladimir Putin with Liz Truss 's readiness to speak to The Russian president.

The background: UK policy towards Ukraine will not change under Mr Sunak. During the summer leadership contest, He Said he would continue backing Ukraine, and make an early visit to Kyiv. But while Ms Truss promised to increase defence spending from 2% to 3% of national Wealth - measured by gross domestic Product - by 2030, Mr Sunak has said that target was " arbitrary" and " not a plan".
