IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • Steve Witkoff
    Steve Witkoff “The meeting was positive, upbeat, constructive. Everybody was there to get to the right outcome.” 21 hours ago
  • Marco Rubio
    Marco Rubio “Ending the war in Ukraine could unlock the door for incredible opportunities that exist to partner with the Russians geopolitically on issues of common interest and, frankly, economically on issues that hopefully will be good for the world and also improve our relations in the long term.” 21 hours ago
  • Sergey Lavrov
    Sergey Lavrov “We explained today that the deployment of any troops, any armed forces from NATO countries but under other flags, either the European Union or national flags, changes nothing in this context. For us, of course, this is unacceptable.” 21 hours ago
  • Marco Rubio
    Marco Rubio “Russia and the United States have agreed to restore their embassies in Moscow and Washington to previous staffing levels to facilitate continued diplomatic engagement. We will need active work of diplomatic missions capable of functioning normally to be able to continue these contacts.” 21 hours ago
  • Jana Puglierin
    Jana Puglierin “February 2022 destroyed our faith in a collective security order with Russia and showed us the dark side of our fundamental dependence on Russia and China in critical areas. February 2025 shows us that the Americans no longer feel responsible for European security - and that their interests are fundamentally different from ours.” 21 hours ago
  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “Ukraine, Europe in a broad sense - and this includes the European Union, Turkiye, and the UK - should be involved in conversations and the development of the necessary security guarantees with America regarding the fate of our part of the world.” 21 hours ago
  • Mariia Mezentseva
    Mariia Mezentseva “It's not yet very clear how this negotiating table will look. But defence and justice must be at the forefront of any solution to end the war, and the US, Europe and Ukraine must be on board. It's not Russia who can dictate the rules because they are the invaders. It has to be absolutely [reversed].” 21 hours ago

“I find it extraordinary that given the gravity of the crisis, where schools and kindergartens are shut and people freeze in their homes, the authorities in Tiraspol refuse to accept Moldova's help. Instead of working with Moldovan authorities to find the best solution to protect the population at this very difficult time, they prefer to wait for Russian help, which may or may not come. Moldovan companies have clearly proven there are solutions to solve the issue, with the cost to bring the gas calculated by Moldovans at anything between €20 million to €45 million for this cold season.”

“It's a very, very difficult law enforcement challenge, much more difficult than dealing with someone who may have had active communications with overseas actors, for example, or having a distinct online profile in which they were consuming and participating in extremist activity in the online space. If you don't have that, then you are very much reliant on that bystander phenomenon.”

“I have never seen the threat landscape this worrying, not just from a counterterrorism perspective but from state-sponsored threats. You pick the grievance, and then you'll find the ideology to act on it. Now it includes Oct. 7, it includes IS - and why IS is so important right now is because it is resurging as a result of what IS could perceive as a victory in Syria.”

“Just as we have been proven right in the case of Syria, history will attest to our righteousness in the Gaza crisis as well. Türkiye's commitment to justice, peace, and compassion will be proven to be the right approach. We are working tirelessly to end the massacres and pave the way for lasting peace. God willing, we hope to see positive results from these multifaceted efforts in the near future.”

“The EU reaffirms its strong support for all UN agencies, including UNRWA, a crucial partner in the Middle East. UNRWA's work is irreplaceable for Palestine refugees. We urge Israel to freeze the implementation of its bills to ensure access of services.”

“It is our collective responsibility to bring this hell to an end. It is our collective responsibility to bring this genocide to an end. You have an obligation to save lives. Palestinian doctors and medical personnel took that mission to heart at the peril of their lives. They did not abandon the victims. Do not abandon them. End Israeli impunity. End the genocide. End this aggression immediately and unconditionally, now. Palestinian doctors and medical personnel are fighting to save human lives and losing their own while hospitals are under attack. They are fighting a battle they cannot win, and yet they are unwilling to surrender and to betray the oath they took.”

“Dr Abu Safia's unlawful detention is emblematic of the broader attacks on the healthcare sector in Gaza and Israel's attempts to annihilate it. None of the medical staff abducted by Israeli forces since November 2023 from Gaza during raids on hospitals and clinics has been charged or put before a trial; those released after enduring unimaginable torture were never charged and did not stand trial. Those still detained remain held without charges or trial under inhumane conditions and at risk of torture.”

“Europe will support Syria in its transition but will not finance new Islamist structures. This is not only in our own security interests but also what I have heard time and again from very many Syrians in Germany... and here in the region. We know where the HTS comes from ideologically, what it has done in the past. But we also hear and see the desire for moderation and for understanding with other important actors.”

“The UN has recorded 136 Israeli attacks on 27 health facilities in Gaza, which have caused significant death and destruction. While Israel often states that Palestinian armed groups use such facilities for military purposes, Israel has not backed up those claims with evidence. Israel has not provided sufficient information to substantiate many of these claims, which are often vague and broad. In some cases they appear to be contradicted by publicly available information.”

“Kurakhove's defense is actually doomed. And now they're maintaining its defense just for political reasons. The fall of the city would be a very bad gift for the office of the presidency, it would very much drop trust ratings.”

“Russian forces might try to skirt Pokrovsk in a rush to seize more territory before any peace talks: Pokrovsk itself is around 18 kilometers from the administrative border between the Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions. What's more likely is they want to avoid brutal urban warfare; for example, what happened in the monthslong fight to seize the city of Bakhmut. The Russians, like just about any army, would prefer to bypass a city, cut off the supply lines to fighters inside and wait them out and force their eventual surrender without as much of a fight.”
