  • Itamar Ben-Gvir
    Itamar Ben-Gvir “I have no doubt that Netanyahu will bring me in [the war cabinet]. I think Netanyahu understands very well what I want from him. We have private conversations and in private conversations I allow myself to tell him many things.” 56 minutes ago
  • William Lai
    William Lai “I hope that China will face the reality of the Republic of China's existence and in good faith ... engage in cooperation with the legal government chosen by Taiwan's people.” 1 hour ago
  • John Kirby
    John Kirby “When it comes to Iranian policy, it is Khamenei who calls the shots, not the president. So we don't anticipate any change in Iranian behavior. And therefore the Iranians should not expect any change in American behavior when it comes to holding them accountable.” 1 hour ago
  • Ali Vaez
    Ali Vaez “The upcoming election offers an opportunity for the clerical establishment to pursue a different course by allowing a relatively competitive vote. But I suspect that the regime is dedicating all its efforts to preparing for a succession after Khamenei, striving to create homogeneous conditions at the top of the power pyramid, and not allowing any rivals into this circle.” 1 hour ago
  • Sanam Vakil
    Sanam Vakil “[Raisi] was a loyal functionary willing to do the bidding of the supreme leader through multiple institutions. There are no obvious candidates that can tick a lot of boxes.” 1 hour ago
  • Hamidreza Azizi
    Hamidreza Azizi “The death of Raisi, in itself, will not cause a significant shift in Iran's policies. After all, the president is the second in command in the power hierarchy of the Islamic republic, and strategic directions are set by the supreme leader. The next president could have significant influence over the overall trajectory of Khamenei's succession. As a result, this is going to lead to heightened intra-conservative competition to [become president].” 1 hour ago
  • Lauren Easton
    Lauren Easton “The Associated Press decries in the strongest terms the actions of the Israeli government to shut down our longstanding live feed showing a view into Gaza and seize AP equipment. The shutdown was not based on the content of the feed but rather an abusive use by the Israeli government of the country's new foreign broadcaster law. We urge the Israeli authorities to return our equipment and enable us to reinstate our live feed immediately so we can continue to provide this important visual journalism to thousands of media outlets around the world.” 7 hours ago
  • Itamar Ben-Gvir
    Itamar Ben-Gvir “Israel should be the one that controls the Gaza Strip, unequivocally, and no one else. Most important is encouraging voluntary emigration of Palestinians from the enclave. Israel could then facilitate the return of settlements. I would love to live in Gaza if possible.” 7 hours ago
  • Donald Tusk
    Donald Tusk “An attempt to show that the prime minister of Israel and the leaders of terrorist organisations are the same, and the involvement of international institutions in this, is unacceptable.” 7 hours ago
  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “They [the Russian side] are always blocking everything, they will undermine the process, and they won't rest until they present us with their own plan for ending the war, which will inevitably be an ultimatum, as we have seen on many previous occasions. We can't hand the initiative over to them [...] Our agenda can't be dictated by Russia. This is a war against us, so there is justice in this. The goal of the summit is to come up, between Ukraine and its allies, with a joint stance on three key questions - and then to inform Russia of their position. If all countries support these three points, as I said, then a detailed step-by-step plan will be developed and presented to Russian representatives across different platforms that different countries have [...] Then Russia will have to contend with most of the world.” 7 hours ago
  • John Holman
    John Holman “Few question his ongoing legitimacy and he [Zelenskyy] remains popular. Although lower than before, his approval rating's still above 60 percent. Many Ukrainians also feel an election would be unrealistic and disrupt the war effort. In a poll this March [2024], 78 percent of those asked said they were against elections before the end of the war. But in addition to that there's also the practical difficulties. Some Ukrainian towns are in ruins. Many power plants have been hit so there's rolling blackouts. And perhaps most importantly, there's 8 million people displaced, 5 million outside the country.” 7 hours ago

China invasion of Taiwan - Timing

Page with all the IPSEs stored in the archive related to the Context China invasion of Taiwan - Timing.
The IPSEs are presented in chronological order based on when the IPSEs have been pronounced.

“Taiwan is a defensible island. We just need to help the Taiwanese to defend it a little bit better. China is continuing to develop significant nuclear, space, cyber, land, air and maritime military capabilities. They are working every day to close the technology gap with the US and its allies. In short, they remain intent on fundamentally revising the global international order in their favor by mid-century, they intend to be a military peer of the US by 2035 and they intend to develop the military capabilities to seize Taiwan by 2027.”

“Once the National Congress of the Communist Party of China is over in the fall of 2022, the scenario of armed unification will move toward becoming a reality. It is very likely that the leadership will move toward armed unification by 2027, the 100th anniversary of the PLA's [People's Liberation Army] founding.”

“I believe the next six years is going to be a very worrying time for Taiwan, the U.S., Japan, and all of East Asia. I still believe that now. The PLA's training and war plans for conflict scenarios in the Taiwan Strait all aim at stopping the U.S. from intervening and coming to Taiwan's aid. The U.S. and its allies must let China know that it will pay a huge price if it continues its aggression.”

“We're seeing estimates that put the year at 2027 more or less in terms of China having sufficient conventional superiority for a successful offensive, and if you talk to more military crowd, and they will tell you, maybe it's closer to 2035. But that's the straight line projection number. If you take into account other kinds of hawks of war or the possibility of additional friends and allies (of Taiwan) coming to participate in this situation, then we're probably pushing the timeline back further into the future.”

“The People's Liberation Army (PLA) currently has the ability to invade Taiwan but indicated that it probably will not immediately attack unless provoked because it would have to pay a price. By 2025, China's costs and attrition will be brought to the lowest level and it will have the ability to launch a full-scale invasion of Taiwan.”
