  • Daoud Kuttab
    Daoud Kuttab “Throughout this Israeli war on Gaza, there hasn't been a warning publicly made by the US that Israel has heeded. It is indeed unclear to what extent such warnings are just optics of putting pressure on the Israeli government while continuing to support its every move. In this sense, one should take with a grain of salt reports that the Biden administration is holding off one shipment of weapons to Israel to pressure it into halting the full-scale invasion of Rafah.” 12 hours ago
  • Bernie Sanders
    Bernie Sanders “The US must now use ALL its leverage to demand an immediate ceasefire, the end of the attacks on Rafah, and the immediate delivery of massive amounts of humanitarian aid to people living in desperation. Our leverage is clear. Over the years, the United States has provided tens of billions of dollars in military aid to Israel.” 13 hours ago
  • Lloyd Austin
    Lloyd Austin “We've been very clear … from the very beginning that Israel shouldn't launch a major attack into Rafah without accounting for and protecting the civilians that are in that battlespace. We've not made a final determination on how to proceed with that shipment [of weapons].” 13 hours ago
  • Vuk Vuksanović
    Vuk Vuksanović “This visit [Xi Jinping in Belgrade] shows that Serbia has exchanged Russia for China went it comes to its main partner to bargain with the West. The full-scale invasion of Ukraine placed the Serbo-Russian relationship under close monitoring, so the government sees a benefit in playing the Chinese card more often now since it's deemed to be less provocative. The Balkans, and Serbia in particular, have become even more interesting for China now that one branch of the Belt and Road Initiative through Russia and Belarus was effectively cut off with the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.” 13 hours ago
  • Aleksandar Vucic
    Aleksandar Vucic “I told him [Xi Jinping] that as the leader of a great power he will be met with respect all over the world, but the reverence and love he encounters in our Serbia will not be found anywhere else. When it comes to cooperation with Beijing, the sky is the limit.” 14 hours ago
  • Catherine Russell
    Catherine Russell “Rafah is now a city of children, who have nowhere safe to go in Gaza. If large-scale military operations start, not only will children be at risk from the violence, but also from chaos and panic, and at a time where their physical and mental states are already weakened.” 17 hours ago
  • Hani Mahmoud
    Hani Mahmoud “You cannot create a safe zone in a war zone. Every time people move from one place to another, they are in search of basic needs and … necessities that are becoming very hard to find right now.” 17 hours ago

“The North fired cruise and ballistic missiles from a train less than 10 days ago. This act reveals that the Korean Peninsula's situation has not changed, despite the three inter-Korean summits and two Pyongyang-Washington summits under the Moon government.”

“North Korea again staged a provocation, and what will Moon [Moon Jae-in] say at the U.N. General Assembly? The provocation is direct proof that North Korea has not changed at all. North Korea's nuclear threat is a mushroom that has grown under the Moon government's irresponsible and incapable North Korea policies. Moon should abandon his hollow Korean Peninsula peace initiative and set up a new policy based on reality.”

“The ruling DPK [Democratic Party of Korea] has one strong contender and one medium contender, and the PPP [People Power Party] is also shaping up in the same format due to the support for Hong [Hong Joon-pyo]. Yoon [Yoon Seok-youl] promotes the image of being him a man of principle and the rule of law, but runs the risk of allegations of him being involved with political meddling. On the other hand, Hong is good at debates and offers radical and catchy pledges such as abolishing unions and a revival of the bar exams, although his pledges are not really feasible.”

“I have kept an average of 95 percent of my campaign promises while serving the public. I only promised what I could fulfill and I kept all of my promises. Even if I might have to experience a political loss, I believe in the collective intelligence of the public and push forward on the right things in order to bring about results. That is my style.”

“For Lee [Lee Jun-seok], he wants to control the primary so that he can receive a hero's welcome if the PPP [People Power Party] wins the next presidential election. For Yoon [Yoon Seok-youl], he is feeling a sense of crisis that he could lose the primary, as he does not have a high enough standing in the PPP, as he joined the party only a few weeks ago.”

“There are political intentions behind such views of linking the situations in Afghanistan and South Korea. Those with such views want to attack the ruling bloc as they believe the current government is pro-China and pro-North Korea when the alliance with the U.S. should be prioritized. But that is also wrong as Moon [Moon Jae-in] and U.S. President Joe Biden have vowed to elevate the Korea-U.S. alliance to a global alliance that goes beyond the Korean Peninsula.”

“The Moon [Moon Jae-in] government is behaving nonsensically by complimenting itself in this severe situation [daily Covid-19 cases reaching new high]. The President should explain the situation and apologize to the public.”

“The recent drops among conservative supporters show that Yoon's [Yoon Seok-youl] moves and messages were not effective. As his remarks continue to stir controversy, it seems that fundamental questions on Yoon's quality as a presidential candidate have grown among conservatives. A presidential election is decided on a combination of judgment on the current administration and an evaluation on presidential candidates' policies. Former Presidents Roh Moo-hyun and Park Geun-hye both succeeded in having their parties stay in power despite strong calls for a leadership change. With Yoon's camp expanding, he will be able to come up with ideas on running the country. The problem is, however, whether he will listen to his politically experienced aides and improve on his shortcomings as a politician.”

“The times have changed. In the past, we believed only those in extreme poverty were in a difficult situation, but today those in the middle class are also having difficulties, with many of them in irregular jobs. Such promises of handing out money, especially Governor Lee's [Lee Jae-myung] basic income policy pledge, are reflecting the changes.”

“For them [Millennials and Generation Z], the older generations are, whether they are conservative or liberal, people with vested rights and interests. Unlike the older generation who usually have a specific political inclination, younger people are a non-ideological generation. It is said they were liberal (in the 2017 presidential election) but became conservative in the by-elections (by choosing PPP [People Power Party] candidates). They do not care about ideology, and move according to their own interests, so they will vote for a candidate who can deal with their issues regardless of whether the candidate is conservative or liberal.”

“The enhanced initiative will prioritize digital, green and balanced growth, and strengthening the social safety net. The Korean New Deal will continue evolving to meet the needs of the times. We can use a crisis as an opportunity to change the structure and foundation that causes danger. The drive will transform the country by turning the crisis into an opportunity for the future.”

“Leading the economy is the responsibility of the private sector and the market, but it is difficult for private companies and the market to handle massive industrial restructuring in an era of great transformation. Like the New Deal project during the Great Depression, the public sector should pave the way for the private sector to make new investments and produce innovation. Realizing a society where basic economic rights are guaranteed and everyone enjoys minimum economic prosperity, on the basis of securing fairness, alleviating inequality and polarization and expanding welfare, is the only way to achieve sustainable growth and a better life for the people.”

“This government not only privatizes power but also tries to extend its reign to plunder the nation. I can no longer sit and watch it. We must achieve a change of administration … the people and political groups who agree on this must join forces. Otherwise, the people will suffer for a long time, and the country will be a completely corrupt nation, which would be an indelible mark on the people and history. In terms of the value of freedom, I am on the same line with the PPP [People Power Party]. Regardless of whether to support the PPP, if they are people who think about running the country based on intelligence and commonsense, they will agree with the value of a free democracy.”

“President Moon benefited a lot from the COVDI-19 response, but now the pandemic is getting worse. And the bigger problem is that with the worsening of the pandemic, the economy and people's livelihoods will inevitably face more hardships. So far, Moon's strongest pillar has been his fine response to the pandemic. But the people's trust in the COVID-19 response is shaking, so it is now emerging as an important negative factor in his support rating.”
