  • Itamar Yaar
    Itamar Yaar “The American move to pause big bomb transfers is largely symbolic. But it's a sign of trouble and could become more of a problem if it is sustained. It's not some kind of American embargo on American munitions support, but I think it's some kind of diplomatic message to Mr Netanyahu that he needs to take into consideration American interests more than he has over the last few months. It's kind of a signal, a 'be careful'.” 1 hour ago
  • Vitalii Barabash
    Vitalii Barabash “Around 700 people stayed in Avdiivka. The situation is not easy; regular checks are ongoing. The excitement of the majority of those who remained and waited for the Russians has long faded. Even those who didn't care admit now that it was far better under Ukraine's control. Because there is no evidence of democracy or that it was 'liberators' that came to them.” 3 hours ago
  • Alan Boswell
    Alan Boswell “The Sudanese have basically been forgotten, obviously there's the war in Gaza which has taken a lot of attention. Frankly it would take very high-level political focus on trying to pressure those who are arming the various sides and have the actual belligerence themselves to stop this. Obviously, the United Nations tools are not very functional.” 5 hours ago
  • Benjamin Netanyahu
    Benjamin Netanyahu “No amount of pressure … will stop Israel from defending itself and achieving its war objectives. Eighty years ago in the Holocaust, the Jewish people were totally defenceless against those who sought our destruction. No nation came to our aid. I pledge here today from Jerusalem on this Holocaust Remembrance Day: If Israel is forced to stand alone, Israel will stand alone. But we know we are not alone because countless decent people around the world support our just cause.” 8 hours ago
  • Vladimir Putin
    Vladimir Putin “We know what the exorbitance of such ambitions leads to. Russia will do everything to prevent a global clash. But at the same time, we will not allow anyone to threaten us. Our strategic forces are always in a state of combat readiness.” 8 hours ago

“It is not Memorial's history research that drew his [Vladimir Putin] ire. The real reason is that the organisation linked that effort to defending human rights in the present. It maintained its own human rights centre, which monitored abuses and designated political prisoners. It also organised an annual vigil in front of the former KGB (currently FSB) building in Moscow, with thousands coming to read out the names of terror victims in a powerful 'never again' message to modern abusers of human rights.”

“There's an old, banal formula that whoever doesn't know the past is doomed to repeat it. The situation of the past decade shows we are moving in that direction. The general prosecutor said we try to portray the Soviet Union as a terrorist organization. Well, we don't have to try. The Soviet Union was a terrorist organization. In no other country were so many citizens imprisoned under false political accusations.”

“Memorial was the last barrier on the way to complete Stalinization of the society and state. What we have now is still lite Stalinism. I am afraid it can turn way worse. It is a tragedy for our country.”

“Memorial is the heart and soul of the Russian human rights movement. It is an utter outrage that the Kremlin is now moving to shut Memorial down. It speaks to the fears of the Russian government that it is no longer willing to tolerate the honest and objective recounting of its conduct that Memorial provides.”

“By closing down the organisation, Russian authorities trample on the memory of millions of victims lost to the Gulag. The decision to close down Memorial should be immediately overturned as it represented a direct assault on the rights to freedom of expression and association and a blatant attack on civil society that seeks to blur the national memory of state repression.”
