IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • Kyrylo Budanov
    Kyrylo Budanov “According to our assessment, we are anticipating a rather difficult situation shortly. However, it is not catastrophic, and this must be understood. Armageddon will not happen, despite what many are starting to claim. But we anticipate problems from mid-May. The Russians will adopt a multifaceted approach. They are orchestrating a complex operation... It will be a difficult period. [Expect this to unfold] around mid-May to early June.” 11 hours ago
  • Iranian Presidential Office
    Iranian Presidential Office “The Islamic Republic of Iran, in line with the neighbourhood policy … is interested in promoting relations with Pakistan and during this trip, various issues including economic and commercial issues, energy and border issues will be discussed with the government of Pakistan.” 16 hours ago
  • Ilan Shor
    Ilan Shor “We offer a new way for Moldova. The EU idea is a ghost; it destroys citizens and the country. [President Maia] Sandu has nothing to offer the people who she has already completely robbed … Sandu is deliberately breaking the umbilical cord of our ties with the CIS, with Russia … our traditional partners and neighbours.” 18 hours ago
  • Ismail Haniyeh
    Ismail Haniyeh “Despite dozens of sessions and communications exchanged via our mediators, the Zionist enemy until this point has not agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza. All they want is the return of captives so they can continue the war on Gaza - and this cannot be. They want Hamas and the resistance to agree to maps referencing the deployment of the Israeli army as if to say we are legitimising the occupation of the Strip. There must be a complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.” 18 hours ago
  • Christian Wagner
    Christian Wagner “We view the latest outbreaks of violence with great concern. Of course, this also applies above all to the violence that comes from extremist settlers. Israel, as the occupying power in the West Bank, has of course the duty and task to ensure security there, within the framework of the applicable law.” 18 hours ago

“We are maxed out as far as we have given all our customers their due quantities. I am unhappy about gas prices being high. The lesson is more long-term deals. Even if I can benefit from short-term spikes like this, I don't like it because it is destructive to demand, it hurts my customer and my customer needs to be healthy for me to be healthy.”

“What we've seen so far … is quite an active presence of voters. There is excitement among nationals who are able to vote in these elections. The [Shura Council] body has been mainly a consultative one over the past few decades but there has been a push within Qatar to share responsibility, to widen participation, to develop the relationship between the citizen and the state. Through that came the idea or the push to make this body one that people are able to stand in, vote in and to give more powers. This is akin to other countries' parliament in that it can draft laws, can question and even sack ministers.”

“The vote will not transform the country into a democracy. But at least we can view it as a step in that direction, with these elections further gravitating Qatar towards a more representative system of governance.”

“We see that women are engaged in the political process both as candidates and as voters and this should not come as a surprise given that Qatar was the GCC [Gulf Cooperation Council] country in which a woman, Sheikha Jufairi, won an elected race for the first time, back in the 2003 elections for the Central Municipal Council.”

“Qatari women are going through a foundational experiment in order to push society towards greater acceptance of Qatari women in the electoral site, after they have proven their worth in their appointed positions in the Shura Council, the Council of Ministers and other leadership positions.”

“Qatar's attempt to establish citizen participation in government could have been a moment to celebrate, but it has been tarnished by denying many Qataris their full citizenship rights and repressing critics of arbitrary voter disenfranchisement. The new laws have only reminded Qataris that they are not all equal.”
