    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.” 2 hours ago

    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.” 2 hours ago

“I must personally say I had the opportunity to at least briefly talk with her [Simone Biles] after the team competition … I'm really admiring how she's handling the situation. She admits to having this problem. This is already courageous. Who one year ago would have admitted to say [they] have mental health problems?”

“What we have worried about is now actually happening. The surge in cases has been expected whether we have the Olympics or not, and we are afraid that there will be an explosive increase in cases regardless of the Olympics.”

“I think the irony of course is the fact that, if it doesn't go well, and they do bring everybody there, the brand that they're going to walk away with is going to be so much worse than it could be in terms of cancelling [the] Games at this point.”

“Vaccinations are proceeding faster than expected, and if infections decrease sharply, the medical system will get relief and restrictions on ordinary people can be relaxed gradually. If the Olympics are held that way, I think understanding will grow.”

“It's not normal to have the Olympics in a situation like this. If we are going to hold the Games under these circumstances … then I think it's the Olympic organisers' responsibility to downsize the scale of the event and strengthen coronavirus control measures as much as possible. It is only when there is a clear reason to host the Games that the public will get on board … it's very important for those involved in the Olympics to clarify their vision and the reason for hosting the Games.”

“The most important principle is very clear. The Olympic village is a safe place and the Olympic and Paralympic Games of Tokyo 2020 will be organised in a safe way. At this moment, already as many as 75 percent of the residents of the Olympic village are already vaccinated or have secured vaccination in time before the Olympic Games.”

“It would be quite an honour. I'm not sure about my schedule. If the schedules worked out and I am in Japan when that happens and they ask me, what an honour that would be. I'm really looking forward to the Olympic Games in Tokyo. If I am on the team – and it looks like I will be – I'll do my best to represent my country and hopefully I'll play well.”
