  • Mikhail Bogdanov
    Mikhail Bogdanov “The bases are still there, where they were on Syrian territory. No other decisions have been made for the moment. They were there at the Syrians' request with the aim of fighting terrorists from the Islamic State. I am proceeding on the basis of the notion that everyone agrees that the fight against terrorism, and what remains of [ISIL], is not over.” 6 hours ago
  • Stephen Zunes
    Stephen Zunes “Israeli military's push into Syrian territory is a clear case of further expansionism by an opportunistic Israel. One can argue about whether Israel should bomb weapons facilities that could get into 'the wrong hands', as they say. But the ground invasion has no logic to it whatsoever, no strategic rationale. This is clearly taking advantage of the fact that Syria is not in a position to defend itself any more. With most of their navy and air force destroyed, with the leadership in flux and the government trying to desperately hold things together. This seemed to be the perfect opportunity for further expansionism. Already there are tweets from Israelis looking forward to building a ski resort on Mount Hermon and talking about holding on to this area for an extended period. I mean, they clearly feel they can get away with this.” 7 hours ago
  • Yun Sun
    Yun Sun “Beijing will play it safe when there's no protocol or precedent for a Chinese leader to attend the inauguration of a U.S. president. I don't think the Chinese will take the risk. There could be risks in the guest list, for example. Taiwan's top diplomat in the U.S. attended the swearing-in of President Joe Biden in 2021. Should Trump slap tariffs as high as 60% on Chinese goods upon taking office as he's threatened, Xi would look like a fool if he had chosen to attend, and that's unacceptable to Beijing.” 7 hours ago
  • Donald Trump
    Donald Trump “We have a good relationship with China. I have a surprising relationship. Now, when the COVID came in, I sort of cut it off. That was a step too far.” 7 hours ago
  • Daniel Russel
    Daniel Russel “Xi's attendance, if he accepts, could be construed as the Chinese president celebrating the triumph of a foreign leader. Can you imagine Xi Jinping sitting outdoors in Washington, DC, in January at the feet of the podium, surrounded by hawkish members of Congress, gazing up at Donald Trump as he delivers his inaugural address?” 7 hours ago
  • Scott Kennedy
    Scott Kennedy “This is diplomatic theater, nothing more. Other heads of state, let alone Xi Jinping, haven't attended US presidential inaugurations.” 7 hours ago
  • Karoline Leavitt
    Karoline Leavitt “This [invitation for Xi Jinping to attend the inauguration ceremony] is an example of President Trump creating an open dialogue with leaders of countries that are not just our allies but our adversaries and our competitors, too.” 7 hours ago
  • Antonio Rodrigue
    Antonio Rodrigue “The security situation is only getting worse. Armed gangs are becoming increasingly violent and are operating without any fear or restraint. In spite of the embargo imposed by Security Council Resolution 2653, these weapons are coming from outside Haiti because Haiti itself doesn't manufacture any weapons at all - assault weapons and automatic weapons which were originally designed for wars and now to be found in the hands of Haitian gangs.” 10 hours ago
  • Donald Trump
    Donald Trump “I disagree very vehemently with sending missiles hundreds of miles into Russia. Why are we doing that? We're just escalating this war and making it worse. That should not have been allowed to be done.” 10 hours ago
  • Sylvain Crépon
    Sylvain Crépon “Le Pen chose the least suicidal option. If the National Rally had not voted to topple the government, it would have become the party under the government's thumb, and they would have lost their protest-vote electorate, who hate Macron.” 13 hours ago
  • Bruno Jeanbart
    Bruno Jeanbart “I think it was a difficult decision for her [Marine Le Pen], that goes against her strategy to make the National Rally more mainstream. But the pressure of the voters was getting too strong. It was more important for her to secure her core voters than to catch new ones at a time when a moderate centrist presidential candidate for 2027 hasn't yet emerged.” 13 hours ago
  • Marine Le Pen
    Marine Le Pen “I don't gamble, I don't play at the casino … I take political decisions. We were faced with an irresponsible budget, and we tried to be responsible.” 13 hours ago
  • Kassym-Jomart Tokayev
    Kassym-Jomart Tokayev “Relations between our states are improving. Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent state visit to Astana added momentum to the advancement of strategic partnership and allied relations of our states. I feel optimistic about the future of our interaction.” 13 hours ago
  • Rob Geist Pinfold
    Rob Geist Pinfold “The deck is being reshuffled and all options are in play in a new Syria. I think there is some cause for optimism there in Sullivan's statement because previously, while the Assad regime was around and ISIS was very strong, while al-Qaeda was present in Syria, there were a lot of organisations the Americans would not talk to, saying they're beyond the pale, they're terrorists, they're autocrats, dictators, what have you. In this new Syria, I think it really shows you how the deck is being reshuffled and all options are in play now that the US is basically saying we're prepared to talk to all these organisations, including ones it has labelled terrorists, like HTS.” 13 hours ago
  • Oleksandr Syrsky
    Oleksandr Syrsky “Unconventional decisions must be made to enhance the resilience of our defense and ensure more effective destruction of the occupiers. The battles are exceptionally fierce. The Russians are throwing all available forces forward, attempting to break through our defenses.” 16 hours ago

“I don't think that this (the transfer of North Korean troops) is such a decisive step that would lead to some kind of significant change of China's attitude toward North Korea or Russia.”

“North Korea wants advanced military and missile technology, but the broader goal of signaling the existence of an anti-Western coalition - which is not going to dissipate-is also important. Russia has provided North Korea with unwavering support at the U.N. Security Council over the past year, a maneuver that fulfills both Russian and North Korean interests. China will not be pleased with North Korea's ongoing claims that its 'number one friend' is Russia.”

“Contrary to what China says officially… I don't think Pyongyang would have surprised China by sending troops without discussing it before. Without China's consent, there wouldn't be a North Korean regime.”

“The war payments are especially attractive to impoverished, middle-aged men who see them as their last chance to escape a lifetime of debt. Beyond that, people getting the money are eating in restaurants, and buying cars, electronics, clothes and property. Government statistics from early 2024 show a 74 percent growth in ordinary Russians across the country purchasing cars compared with the same time period last year, while those paying off consumer debts jumped to 21 percent, up from about 9 percent before the war.”

“If the next [US] leader continues adding fuel to the fire in the Russia-Ukraine conflict with the same gusto, that will be a very bad choice because it will be a road to hell. This would really pave the way for a third world war. I urge both US presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, to recognize this fact. Whoever decides to continue the war will be making a very grave mistake.”

“The question on the left is: Is this a cynical performative device by the right to champion an anti-woke, Black, right-wing politician to challenge antiracist policies, and therefore will it have regressive consequences? I prefer to think of Ms. Badenoch as representing a kind of migrant patriotism - the idea that migrants choose the country and the rest of you are born in it and don't know how lucky you are. Ms. Badenoch's political views are very authentic and understandable in the context of a life that took her from privilege and comfort in Nigeria to a tough new start and hard-won success in Britain. It's just that her life experience is quite an unusual Black British story.”

“I informed my Czech counterparts about the situation on the frontline, which continues to be difficult. Active hostilities that continue in certain areas require a constant supply of resources for Ukrainian units. Currently, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are holding back one of the most powerful Russian offensives since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.”

“The situation we're experiencing is tragic and dramatic. We're almost certainly talking about the worst flood our continent has seen so far this century. I'm aware that the response we're mounting isn't enough. I know that. And I know there are severe problems and shortages and that there are still collapsed services and towns buried by the mud where people are desperately looking for their relatives, and people who can't get into their homes, and houses that have been buried or destroyed by mud. I know we have to do better and give it our all. There would be time later to look into what had gone wrong and to learn lessons about the importance of our public services and how to reinforce them in the situations we're living through as a consequence of climate change … But now we need to focus all our efforts on the colossal task we face and to forget our differences and put ideologies and disagreements to one side and act together.”

“The longer the current Ukrainian authorities, backed by the West, undermine various agreements, the less territory this regime has. In February 2014: if they had fulfilled in good faith what they agreed upon, nothing would have happened, and Crimea would be part of Ukraine. But they decided to break the agreement, as they were eager to change the government as soon as possible. By February 2015, the Minsk agreements. If they had honored these agreements, yes, Crimea had already seceded by that time, but Ukraine would have remained within its borders, including all of Donbass. They did not want to do it because they were unwilling to grant a part of Donbass special status, which primarily involves confirming the right of the people living there to speak their language. And the third chance they had was in Istanbul in April 2022. President [of Russia Vladimir Putin] spoke about it in detail. Of course, the current situation is also different from what it was in April 2022.”

“The Russian Armed Forces have been most successful in capturing areas in Donetsk Oblast, including towns of Pokrovsk, Kurakhove, Vuhledar and Velyka Novosilka. The Russian Federation has occupied an additional 150 sq. km in these areas over the past week. Russia might be preparing for ground offensives in Zaporizhzhia Oblast. It is highly likely that the 76th Guards Air Assault Division, based in the Russian city of Pskov, will be involved in future assaults. The aim will be to capture new territory and further engage Ukrainian forces in this area.”

“To understand the effect of weaponised starvation, it is essential to consider the broader social and psychological framework within which it occurs. Ignacio Martín-Baró, a prominent figure in liberation psychology, posited that trauma is produced socially. This means that trauma is not merely an individual experience but is embedded within and exacerbated by the social conditions and structures surrounding the individual. In Gaza, traumatogenic structures include the ongoing siege, the genocidal aggression, and the deliberate deprivation of essential resources such as food, water, and medicine. The trauma they result in is compounded by the collective memory of suffering during the Nakba (the mass ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in 1947-8) and the continuous displacement and systemic oppression of the occupation. In this environment, trauma is not just a personal experience but a collective, socially and politically ingrained reality.”
