    Theresa Fallon “Many people would like to see China play a constructive role, but I think now that we're in the third year of the war, this idea is wearing a bit thin.” 22 hours ago
  • Mahjoob Zweiri
    Mahjoob Zweiri “What we have witnessed in the past few hours is that they talk about an agreement on the first stage. It could be understood that Hamas wants to release itself from the pressure globally, including the United States. So, they are giving concessions on the first stage, which leads to 40 days of ceasefire and exchange of captives. I think 33 old and sick captives. And then moving on to other stages. But we are seeing that we are going back to the main conditions, which means we are still talking about the main principles [complete ceasefire and withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza] that Hamas talked about. As the time of some sort of agreement on the first stage came, the Israeli military and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu came to say actually, there is no agreement: We will go to Rafah regardless of any agreement. It reflects the divisions within the Israelis and crisis within the Israeli politics. On the other hand, Hamas has been more cautious. They do not want to show real progress made but they also do not want to say things have not changed. I think it's obvious some change has happened otherwise we would not expect [CIA chief] William Burns to be in the region.” 22 hours ago

“For us, it is very important that any talks (with Belarus) are coordinated with Lithuania, Poland and Latvia, which are at the forefront of the hybrid attack, and no decisions are taken which do not solve the situation fundamentally.”

“The (Belarus) embassy of course knows that this person is not going for tourism. What kind of tourism would that be, to book a plane ticket for $800 and get a visa for $1,250? They know that these people are coming to go to Europe.”

“There are a lot of cases when Polish and Lithuanian border guards beat migrants and pushed them back to Belarusian territory. I would say that this is total shame and a total violation of any possible international conventions and rules.”

“We heat Europe, and they are still threatening us that they'll shut the borders. And what if we cut off [the transit of] natural gas to them? So I would recommend that the leadership of Poland, Lithuanian and other brainless people to think before they speak.”

“This is not a bilateral issue of Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus. This is a challenge to the whole of the European Union. And this is not a migration crisis. This is the attempt of an authoritarian regime to try to destabilise its democratic neighbours. This will not succeed. We know the patterns. We are used to that, by seeing how there was the attempt to influence our democratic elections. We see the cyberattacks. We see the misinformation. Now, we have this hybrid attack by instrumentalising migrants at the EU-Belarus border. And we have to protect our democracies from this kind of cynical geopolitical power play.”

“An open and frank discussion with Polish Minister of the Interior Mariusz Kamiński on the situation at the Polish - Belarus border. The desperation of the Lukashenko regime is clear. As is their lack of respect for vulnerable people. The aggression from the Lukashenko regime deserves a firm and united response from EU. Poland, as a strong EU Member State, can show that the capacity to protect the border can be matched with the ability to respect EU fundamental rights and obligations.”

“We have an aggressive regime, Lukashenka, that is actually pushing migrants...to the European border to destabilize the European Union. This is an act of aggression. What we are seeing now is a desperate Lukashenka. This is a regime that has denied its own people free and fair elections. This is a regime that is putting political opposition in jail.”
