“I've been hearing now for the past three months (that) China is going to provide significant weapons to Russia… They haven't yet. Doesn't mean they won't but they haven't yet. I don't take China lightly. I don't take Russia lightly.”

“In part as a result of having this very different worldview than we do, they have a marriage of convenience. I'm not sure if it's conviction. Russia is very much the junior partner. China had so far declined to provide weapons to Moscow for its war in Ukraine. As we speak today, we have not seen them cross that line.”

“This policy is definitely sustainable. While the assistance seems significant in terms of the dollar amount when put in the context of the entire US government budget, the numbers are not overly large pieces of the whole pie. The amounts of money we're talking about are, I think, a pretty small price to pay if you look at what the alternative is - what it would mean for Vladimir Putin to succeed, for not just the United States and its place in the world but in fact for the entire global commons.”

“There are countries that have long-standing, decades-long relationships with Russia, with the Soviet Union before, that are challenging to break off in one fell swoop. It's not flipping a light switch, it's moving an aircraft carrier. India for decades had Russia at the core of providing military equipment to it and its defenses, but what we've seen over the last few years is a trajectory away from relying on Russia and moving into partnership with us and other countries.”

“Biden, who promised to put human rights at the centre of his foreign policy, has ignored US clients' human rights violations and has been supporting strongmen who rule with an iron fist, while the region teeters under violent sectarian and authoritarian regimes. Washington cannot in good conscience claim to confront Russia and China in the name of democracy, human rights and the preservation of sovereignty, while appeasing colonialism and dictatorship in the Middle East or elsewhere. It is hypocritical and it is counterproductive.”

“You can get a lot of visual information from a satellite, but somewhere as far north as [the state of] Montana, a satellite only has a few seconds of time over the target whereas a balloon has more time. The second thing a balloon would be capable of doing would be gathering electronic signals, so it could intercept communications. If we do recover [the balloon] and it does prove to be surveillance stuff, I think there will be some public display of that. This will be further embarrassment for the Chinese.”

“China is the world's second-largest economy, its largest manufacturer, and its largest trader. It will be a big part of the global financial picture for decades to come. Instead of fatalistically accepting the descent of an economic iron curtain, Washington should negotiate aggressively with China to win opportunities for Americans in its market. Administration officials should have serious discussions with Chinese leadership about how to manage the decoupling in a way that allows for mutually beneficial trade. Right now, the two countries are mostly trading charges and countercharges while doing nothing to expand mutually beneficial economic opportunities.”

“Fundamentally right now, Russia has shown no interest in meaningful diplomacy, in meaningfully engaging, to bring this war to an end. The conflict could be ended if Russia simply withdrew its troops. In the absence of that, we have to see some meaningful evidence that Russia is prepared to actually negotiate a just and durable peace. By just - one that doesn't simply ratify another country seizing by force the territory of another. Durable - in the sense that we want to make sure that it holds and that we're not simply putting Ukraine in a position where Russia is going to repeat what it did a month, six months, a year later.”

“We're seeing a kind of a reduced tempo already of the conflict … and we expect that's likely to be what we see in the coming months. The Ukrainian and Russian militaries will attempt to refit and resupply to prepare for counteroffensives after the winter. We actually have a fair amount of scepticism as to whether or not the Russians will be in fact prepared to do that. I think more optimistically for the Ukrainians in that timeframe. Putin is beginning to realise the challenges his military is faced with. I do think he is becoming more informed of the challenges that the military faces in Russia. But it's still not clear to us that he has a full picture at this stage of just how challenged they are … we see shortages of ammunition, for morale, supply issues, logistics, a whole series of concerns that they're facing.”
