  • Simon Harris
    Simon Harris “Israel must stop firing on UN peacekeepers serving with UNIFIL in Lebanon. Israel must listen to the voice and the concerns of the international community.” 2 hours ago
  • Ramesh Poola
    Ramesh Poola “Obviously, we were looking for more details on what exactly his future plans are going to be and how he's [Elon Musk] going to monetise this new AI and robotics. He's shown the prototypes and definitely, there's some excitement around it. But widespread adoption of autonomous Cybercabs, where riders can hail rides through an Uber-style app, are still maybe three to four years away.” 2 hours ago
  • Matthew Wansley
    Matthew Wansley “Tesla software is at least years behind where Waymo is. That's the hard part. No flashy vehicle design is going to change that.” 2 hours ago
  • Ross Gerber
    Ross Gerber “His [Elon Musk] vision is lovely, but somebody has to actualise it. For now, for the next 24 months, Tesla has to sell EVs. Why aren't we focused on that?” 2 hours ago
  • Noemi Di Segni
    Noemi Di Segni “We are experiencing hours of grave tension for what happened with the attacks of the Israeli army against UNIFIL outposts, in a situation on the ground that is extremely complex and dangerous for everybody. We are fully aware of the critical nature of the ongoing situation, including on a political level, of these episodes which, we have learned, are being subjected to a careful investigation by all the appropriate.” 2 hours ago
  • Dorsa Jabbari
    Dorsa Jabbari “Hezbollah is standing firm; just this afternoon, we heard from the media relations department, which delivered a message to the internal parties in Lebanon not to bet on Hezbollah's defeat. The organisation has suffered hits, but they are not out. They haven't even used most of the military potential that they have despite the continuous Israeli bombardment. Of course, we are now seeing a huge civilian toll that is now caught in the middle of this fighting.” 7 hours ago
  • Touraj Atabaki
    Touraj Atabaki “Pezeshkian [Masud Pezeshkian] is trying to gauge to what extent Iran can rely on Russia for help. Russia wants to stand with Iran due to Iran's support in its war on Ukraine but Moscow doesn't want to darken its relationship with Israel further and cut all ties.” 8 hours ago
  • Barack Obama
    Barack Obama “We don't need four more years of arrogance and bumbling and bluster and division. America is ready to turn the page. We are ready for a better story, one that helped us work together instead of turning against each other. Pennsylvania, we're ready for President Kamala Harris. I am the hopey changey guy so I understand people feeling frustrated, feeling we can do better. What I cannot understand is why anybody would think that Donald Trump will shake things up in a way that is good for you, Pennsylvania. I don't understand that.” 8 hours ago
  • Masoud Pezeshkian
    Masoud Pezeshkian “European countries and the United States don't want relations between countries [in the Middle East] to develop peacefully. The situation in the region has escalated dramatically because Israel doesn't recognize any international legal and humanitarian standards.” 8 hours ago
  • Nicholas Eberstadt
    Nicholas Eberstadt “For the first time since the Black Death in the 1300s, the planetary population will decline. But whereas the last implosion was caused by a deadly disease borne by fleas, the coming one will be entirely due to choices made by people. With birthrates plummeting, more and more societies are heading into an era of pervasive and indefinite depopulation, one that will eventually encompass the whole planet. What lies ahead is a world made up of shrinking and aging societies.” 9 hours ago
  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “This is exactly what we need - the restoration of a just peace for Ukraine, and this is a victory for us, and this is what we are working for. Today I will present Olaf [German Chancellor Olaf Scholz] with a plan on how, in our opinion, to force Russia to peace, that is, how to end this war, I would like to say, no later than 2025. That is, this plan is not to replace our peace initiative, but to strengthen Ukraine's position for the sake of getting closer to peace.” 10 hours ago
  • Benjamin Soskis
    Benjamin Soskis “I'm not sure there is a precedent in modern history to how Musk has inserted himself into the presidential race.” 10 hours ago
  • Daniel Seidemann
    Daniel Seidemann “Since last year, the Israeli military and particularly the political echelons have become more promiscuous with how many human casualties they can tolerate. Any military operation requires proportionality. What we witnessed in Gaza and Lebanon and engagement with UNIFIL, it goes well beyond any reasonable interpretation of what proportionality is. These are unnecessary casualties. But my government is not interested in a diplomatic solution, my prime minister has a vested interest in prolonging the war.” 11 hours ago
  • Guy Shalev
    Guy Shalev “There are more than 20,000 Palestinians who await medical evacuation in Gaza who can't be treated there and can't get out. Only several hundred have been allowed to leave since May. In the occupied West Bank, the organisation is working closely with Palestinians to document settler violence and ethnic cleansing of Palestinian communities while trying to assist prisoners. Access is very restricted. For instance, the ICRC [International Committee of the Red Cross] has not had any access to any Israeli prison in the past year, which is a dire violation of prisoners' human rights and of international law. We're getting a lot of medical requests that we can't fully address because of the sheer amount and scale of violations. We're now trying to address the needs of people who weigh just 40kg and are in very bad health conditions after long months of not getting proper medical care and nutrition.” 11 hours ago
  • Mohammed Afif
    Mohammed Afif “Some media outlets, including global international outlets, cannot dare address the Israelis and tell them openly you are killing unarmed, defenceless innocent civilians. The Israeli army continues to bombard residential areas and kill civilians, under the false pretext that these are weapons depots. The Israelis are even targeting Dahiyeh with bombs saying there are weapons there. Above all, they impede and deny the civil defence and paramedics access to the areas.” 11 hours ago
  • Elon Musk
    Elon Musk “With autonomy, you get your time back. It'll save lives, a lot of lives, and prevent injuries. With that amount of training data it's obviously going to be much better than a human can be because you can't live a million lives. It doesn't get tired, and it doesn't text. It'll be 10, 20, 30 times safer than a human.” 11 hours ago
  • Trissia Wijaya
    Trissia Wijaya “I don't think the planned tariffs would have a major effect on Indonesia-China economic cooperation overall. This can be traced back to the real mainstay of our [Indonesian] relationship over the past few years, which is critical mineral trade volume, in which China absorbed more than 80 percent of our nickel output. The nickel supply is pivotal for China's strategic interests. As long as the mainstay is not destroyed, I don't think it would infuriate Beijing either as it is applicable to textiles, ceramics, and electronics.” 21 hours ago
  • Lin Jian
    Lin Jian “China will closely follow possible safeguard tariffs Indonesia may impose on specific products, and take necessary measures to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies.” 21 hours ago
  • Siwage Dharma Negara
    Siwage Dharma Negara “Just reducing imports may not be an ideal goal. We need imports for raw materials and local industrial materials and, if tariffs are imposed, these industries will be affected. The government should place emphasis on supporting the growth of local businesses in addition to curbing imported goods. Businesses need to be helped to be more efficient and grow stronger, and for this the government needs to provide clear targets.” 21 hours ago
  • Ian Wilson
    Ian Wilson “Jakarta has pursued a model of new developmentalism that aims to foster rapid economic growth while shielding local businesses from competition. Southeast Asian style developmentalism is a well-known model beginning in the 1970s with a high degree of government intervention in the economy overseeing a transition of labour, output, and exports away from low productivity agriculture towards higher productivity manufacturing sector and industrialisation. The immediate question, however, is what is the calculation in imposing tariffs of this kind?” 21 hours ago
  • Husam Abu Safiyeh
    Husam Abu Safiyeh “We have seven cases in intensive care … all these cases are very severe and they all need intensive surgical or medical care. Moving or transporting these patients puts their life in serious danger, it is not possible to transfer them. In addition, there is no facility in Gaza that has capacity to take them as they are all overrun with their own similar cases.” 22 hours ago
  • Dan Ives
    Dan Ives “I think it's one of the most important events that Tesla has ever held. I think it will be viewed five to 10 years from now as what the iPhone launch moment was for Apple.” 22 hours ago

“If North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, it will face a resolute and overwhelming response from our military and the South Korea-U.S. alliance. That day will be the end of the North Korean regime.”

“North Korea's unveiling of its infrastructure, including key uranium production facilities for nuclear weapons, appears to be intended to send a message to the winner of the U.S. presidential election. By revealing these facilities, North Korea seems to be setting the stage for continued strategic provocations while signaling to the U.S. its intent to engage in negotiations on nuclear issues.”

“The obvious conclusion is that the nuclear force of the DPRK and the posture capable of properly using it for ensuring the state's right to security in any time should be more thoroughly perfected. The DPRK will steadily strengthen its nuclear force capable of fully coping with any threatening acts imposed by its nuclear-armed rival states and redouble its measures and efforts to make all the armed forces of the state, including the nuclear force, fully ready for combat.”

“Denuclearization is becoming more of a rhetorical stance in the U.S. not just among Republicans but also Democrats. After the U.S. presidential elections, regardless of which party wins, we may see Washington shift toward disarmament negotiations to break the stalemate. The focus of their goal would be to freeze North Korea's nuclear weapons so they do not pose direct threats to the U.S. Such a move could undermine Yoon's audacious initiative, which sets North Korea's genuine steps toward denuclearization as a precondition for any discussions.”

“The U.S.-led alliance has transformed in its essence into a military bloc based on nuclear power, using this as justification for strengthening military capabilities. We have now improved the effectiveness of tactical nuclear weapons from a practical perspective. We have obtained a clear and overwhelming deterrent against the enemy's reckless provocations.”

“The U.S. intelligence community assesses that KJU [Kim Jong-un] views nuclear weapons as the ultimate deterrent against foreign intervention. KJU declared last year that he would be willing to employ nukes more broadly in wartime, and last September, he stated unequivocally that he would never give up his nukes and the North Korea's status as a nuclear weapons state is irreversible. We must not relax sanctions or reduce joint military exercises just to get North Korea to come to the negotiating table. This is a fool's error. While we hope for diplomacy with North Korea to be successful, we must recognize that hope alone is not a course of action. The quest for dialogue with the North must never be made at the expense of the ability to respond to threats from the North.”

“Everybody is holding its breath about this, because another nuclear test would be yet another confirmation of a program which is moving full steam ahead, in a way that is incredibly, incredibly concerning. Further tests, of course, means that they are refining the preparations and the construction of their arsenal. So we are following this very, very closely. We hope it doesn't happen, but indications unfortunately go in another direction.”

“Any nuclear test would be in complete violation of UN Security Council resolutions [and] there would be a swift and forceful response to such a test. The entire world will respond in a strong and clear manner. We are prepared.”

“The basic mission of our nuclear forces is to deter war, but if an undesirable situation emerges on our land, we should not limit our capability to a single purpose of preventing war. If any forces attempt to infringe on our fundamental interests, our nuclear forces will have no choice but to fulfill its second mission. The republic's (North Korea's) nuclear forces should be readied so that they can carry on their responsibility and exercise deterrence whenever required.”

“The US administration firmly maintains a forward-looking, creative and flexible stance to restart dialogue with North Korea and make progress. South Korea and the US have been holding discussions on humanitarian assistance for the North in that context. I could confirm that the US government continues to recognize the urgency of the North Korean nuclear issue even in the midst of rapidly changing international political conditions and will continue to address the North Korean nuclear issue as a first-priority challenge.”

“The weapons are what gives North Korea leverage. If you have 30 instead of 20 then this gives them more bargaining chips when eventually negotiations take place again. And if they don't, then the weapons suit North Korean security for the better. It's a reflection of the stalemate in negotiations over the last six months.”

“[The IAEA report] appears to indicate North Korea has resumed producing plutonium for its nuclear weapons programme. While North Korea already has a significant stockpile of nuclear weapons, this suggests it is moving to expand its current arsenal.”

“North Korea's nuclear program, North Korea's ballistic missile program, of course, is a profound challenge not only, again, for the United States, but also for our allies in the Indo-Pacific and our partners as well. So, of course, we want to make sure we do a number of things.”

“In light of Kim Jong-un's accelerated efforts to improve his nuclear and ballistic missile programs, it makes no sense to lift any U.N. sanctions, and throw away leverage. In terms of North Korea's internal situation, Kim has done more harm with his self-imposed sanctions - closing borders, eliminating any cross-border travel, horrible economic mismanagement, shutting markets, bad policies, and refusing ROK [Republic of Korea - South Korea] medical help - than the U.N. sanctions have done. If he wants food aid, how about us giving him one million tons of food for each nuclear weapon he verifiably destroys?”

“If a distracted Biden administration does not prioritise North Korea, we will continue to see it making tremendous advancements on their nuclear and missiles programmes. For North Korea to refrain from provocations, the Biden administration has to consider North Korea as a top priority, conduct a policy review immediately, and then come to a decision - whether that is applying full-on pressure or pursuing an interim deal that does not lead to denuclearisation, but at least cap the North’s nuclear programme.”

“What they want to tell the US is we’re developing the new strategic weapons that you can see as the most intimidating. Do you want to come to the negotiating table? While Kim leaves the door open for talks, he’s still sending a message to Biden that he’s not an easy [dialogue] partner.”

“North Korea isn’t going to totally abandon its nuclear arms, but it could offer a freeze to seek a long-term solution. And as long as it keeps away from something provocative to draw attention, its chance of getting some economic help from outside might just improve.”
