    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 “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

“We must reestablish sea control around the shoal [Second Thomas Shoal] because if we don't control it, our resupply is vulnerable to their coercive tactics.”

“We abhor the recent event in the Ayungin Shoal and view with grave concern other similar developments. This does not speak well of the relations between our nations and our partnership. We must fully utilise these [the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and the 2016 Hague arbitration] legal tools to ensure that the South China Sea remains a sea of peace, stability, and prosperity.”

“China resolutely opposes hegemonism and power politics, wishes to maintain friendly relations with its neighbours and jointly nurture lasting peace in the region and absolutely will not seek hegemony or even less, bully the small.”

“Taiwan does not seek military confrontation. It hopes for a peaceful, stable, predictable and mutually-beneficial coexistence with its neighbours. But Taiwan will also do whatever it takes to defend its freedom and democratic way of life. The Indo-Pacific needs a peaceful, stable and transparent environment and there are many opportunities in the region. But this also brings new tensions and systemic contradictions that could have a devastating effect on international security and the global economy if they are not handled carefully. Taiwan is fully committed to collaborating with regional players to prevent armed conflict in the East China, South China Seas and in the Taiwan Strait.”

“This AUKUS agreement very vividly shows that East Asia has become the focus of United States global security strategy. It's a reminder to China that if we can't ease tensions with neighbors over the South China Sea and East China Sea, the U.S. will continue trying to take advantage of this tension.”

“They're both preparing for it, but it would take an incredibly stupid leadership in both countries to end up in a war between the US and China. Smart policies can take us in a more positive direction ... Over the next 20-25 years, I wouldn't necessarily expect a hot war or even something like the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union, but a prolonged, intense, strategic competition between China and the US that won't end with the Trump administration.”
