  • Yi Wang
    Yi Wang “No conflict or war ends on the battlefield, but rather at the negotiating table. China supports the convening at an appropriate time of an international peace conference that is acceptable to the Russian and Ukrainian sides with the participation of all parties equally. There, peace plans can be discussed, fairly, to achieve a ceasefire as soon as possible. We must always insist on an objective and just position, there is no magic wand to solve the crisis. All parties should start with themselves.” 14 hours ago
  • Boris Pistorius
    Boris Pistorius “Russia is already producing weapons and ammunition beyond its need for conducting an aggressive war against Ukraine. With increased spending on armaments and the streamlining of the military economy, a significant portion or part of what is produced no longer goes to the front line, but ends up in warehouses. Now you can be naive and say he's doing it just out of caution. As a sceptical person, I would say in this case that he's doing it because he has plans or could have them.” 19 hours ago
  • Emmanuel Macron
    Emmanuel Macron “There is a risk our Europe could die. We are not equipped to face the risks. Russia must not be allowed to win in Ukraine. Europeans should give preference to buying European military equipment. We must produce more, we must produce faster, and we must produce as Europeans.” 19 hours ago
  • Aleksey Kushch
    Aleksey Kushch “By including the Ukraine package in a bill that also provides military aid to Israel and Taiwan, the US shows the world that it equals Ukraine's and Israel's archenemies - Russia and Iran. This is a mighty geopolitical slap for China. As the trade turnover between Russia and China rose to $240bn last year, the more the US pushes Beijing, the more discounts for oil and gas China gets from Russia.” 20 hours ago
  • Nikolay Mitrokhin
    Nikolay Mitrokhin “The aid is a surprisingly exact match of Ukrainian military's needs that mostly has a deficit of air defence weaponry of all kinds and also needs to replenish its arsenal of tank destroyers, anti-infantry landmines and other kinds of ammunition. It's obviously needed to deliver infantry and other ground troops to the front line but not for an advance - otherwise the US would have given tanks.” 20 hours ago
  • Ihor Romanenko
    Ihor Romanenko “The aid can improve the situation on the 1,000km-long (620-mile-long) front line. But the aid looks like a handout to show that we haven't been forgotten, no more than that. They're always late, they hit the brakes, they're afraid. All of that is done to catch up [with Russia], but wars are won by those who act ahead of time.” 20 hours ago

“I will make North Korea clearly realize that should it attempt to use nuclear arms, it would face the overwhelming response from the South Korea-U.S. alliance and our military, and there would be no scenario for regime survival anymore.”

“President Biden and I agreed that the sophistication of North Korea's military capabilities, such as missiles and its nuclear program, has posed grave concerns to the security of our two countries. In response, President Biden reemphasized his commitment to the U.S. government's extended deterrence commitment to South Korea. In detail, we agreed to begin discussions on expanding our joint military exercises, which are key to our combined defense capability, and to coordinate with each other on deploying U.S. strategic assets and additional measures. In order to prepare ourselves for a possible nuclear attack from North Korea, there have been discussions that our two countries' combined military exercise should be carried out in various ways.”

“The looming prospect of possible nuclear tests, more joint U.S.-South Korea military drills, and the new conservative South Korean president mean all conditions are present for a tit-for-tat chain reaction of escalatory steps. Though Biden would prefer to focus exclusively on the Ukraine crisis, it's likely he will soon face crisis-level tensions between the Koreas.”

“The Afghan crisis, in which the Islamic militants took full control of Afghanistan, is the result of the government's incompetence, the incapacitated military and the cold-hearted nationalism of the international community. Unless its partner has strong defense capabilities and strong will for self-reliance, the U.S. could leave the partner to pursue its own national interests. The Moon Jae-in government and the military should do their best to strengthen the Republic of Korea-U.S. alliance and maintain a strong military, using the Afghan situation as a turning point.”

“The summertime exercises have already been scaled down to the point where they cannot be downsized anymore, leaving South Korea and the U.S. with only two options of either totally scrapping them or carrying them out as planned. As it takes about three to six months to prepare for the joint drill, it would be difficult for the countries to cancel or adjust the plan at this last moment.”

“Even if the exercise is suspended [South Korea - US military exercise], it will become useless unless the North accepts it. If the North does not accept this offer, the public support and momentum for peaceful inter-Korean relations will decline sharply.”

“The NDAA [National Defense Authorization Act] has contradictory clauses concerning U.S. forces in Korea. For the third year in a row, Congress approved a clause inhibiting the reduction of U.S. forces out of concern that President Trump might do so over bilateral differences in Special Measures Agreement (SMA) negotiations. However, the 5G clause could be read as requiring a reduction if Seoul does not prohibit the inclusion of Chinese 5G technology. Washington could request certification that no Chinese 5G technology is used in any communication systems linking Korean and U.S. military units nor will it be used in future sales of U.S. military equipment to Seoul. Doing so could reduce concerns that alliance command and control systems could be compromised. One of the conditions of OPCON [operational control] transition requires certification that Seoul can command combined U.S.-Korean military operations. Concerns over the integrity of bilateral military communications, as well as links with the United Nations sending states' military units, could become a factor in transition discussions.”
