“We've never shied away from calling it like we see it when it comes to [China's] behaviour, intimidation and coercion of not only their neighbours but countries around the world. This is a difficult, complex bilateral relationship, the most consequential one in the world. The president understands that. But that doesn't mean there isn't still a need to continue to improve our lines of communication.”

“The US position under President Joe Biden reflects a tricky, gnarly, complex challenge. The Biden administration perhaps has made a calculus that, 'Okay, the region is moving forward with normalisation. Perhaps the issue then is to get something for it, get concessions'. But without accountability for Syrian government abuses, Washington will not normalise its relations with Damascus or ease its heavy sanctions, including the blocking of foreign reconstruction funds. Frankly, given Assad and given his role and given the lack of accountability, it's very hard - if not impossible - to imagine that the US is going to shift its position with respect to either normalising ties or yielding on the issues around reconstruction, lifting sanctions.”

“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.

“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.”
