  • 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.” 5 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.” 5 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.” 6 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.” 6 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?” 6 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.” 6 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.” 6 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.” 9 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.” 9 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.” 12 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.” 12 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.” 12 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.” 12 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.” 12 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.” 15 hours ago

“The last two weeks in Mozambique have been marked by completely unnecessary bloodshed as authorities have tried to stop a peaceful protest movement with deadly force. The number of casualties increases every day, with authorities deploying weapons of war, including rifles and armoured vehicles, on city streets. People cannot even protest in their own homes without risking tear gassing by police.”

“Alongside the diplomatic attempt to reach agreements in Lebanon, we need to continue formulating the plans for the continuation of the fighting in Lebanon, including expanding and deepening the [ground] maneuver, and we will activate these plans as needed. The IDF continues to strike Hezbollah targets according to plan in the entire region, in southern Lebanon, the Beqaa Valley, Beirut and Syria.”

“The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not what we voted for, but hear me when I say that the light of America's promise will always burn bright as long as we never give up and as long as we keep fighting. While I concede this election, I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign. I will never give up a fight for a future where Americans can pursue their dreams ambitions and aspirations. I will never give up the fight for our democracy. We will continue to wage this fight in the voting booth, in the courts and in the public square. Sometimes the fight takes a while. That doesn't mean we won't win. The important thing is don't ever give up. Don't ever stop trying to make the world a better place.”

“What is now a central part of this character is what I have called the Contempt Paradox: People are drawn to Trump and the contempt he expresses toward his opponents, especially liberal politicians and the news media, precisely because of the contempt he draws in return. This is the through line of his politics. The implications are stark. For a significant portion of his supporters, he didn't win in 2016 in spite of his notorious remark to Access Hollywood about grabbing women by their private parts, or in 2024 in spite of his election denialism. He won in some measure because of these things - and the indignation they inspired.”

“Iran and the Resistance Front are prepared, and the Zionists lack the capability to confront us; they should await our response. Iranian weapon stockpiles hold sufficient arms and power to strike the Zionists. The geography of the Zionist regime is small, and we have a bank of significant and impactful targets within this regime.”

“In the immediate term, Trump is expected to focus on the Ukraine war, Middle Eastern conflicts and domestic priorities, which could give South Korean officials time to prepare for potential curveballs the Trump administration may throw. Trump's return could bring unexpected opportunities, especially in terms of the ongoing stalemate between the two Koreas. There has been growing discontent here about the U.S. Democrats' status-quo approach on North Korea, during which the regime advanced its nuclear capabilities. A new Trump era could bring unexpected shifts, although this unpredictability might be challenging for South Korean officials to navigate.”

“Trump might just see it [Nuclear Consultative Group (NCG)] as a talking shop that does nothing and kill it off. I would not be shocked if Trump greenlighted South Korea building nuclear weapons - he might even encourage such a move out in the open for a lot of reasons. He could be of the mindset that it's unfair for North Korea to have these weapons and not South Korea.”

“I think it's going to be unprecedented in American electoral history, in American presidency. I think we are at a turning point that we haven't seen except a few times in American history. There is a newly changed America, an America that has decided that it wants to break with the past, break with the liberal past. Because if you notice, Trump ran on an agenda that is both nationalistic, ultra-nationalistic, and anti-liberal, in every possible way anti-liberal. We really need to address the fact that Americans in general and independents in particular are no longer happy with liberal Democrats of the East Coast and West Coast. That California and New York will no longer be the dominant political establishment in the United States. That the heart of America, as it were, if you see it in the map, all that red part of America, the hinterland, the America profound, as it were, this is going to rule and govern through Trump. And this America is illiberal to a large degree, it is somewhat conservative, and it's certainly very resistant and very resentful of the liberal elites in New York and California.”

“She [Kamala Harris] had decades of government experience under her belt: from her time as a public prosecutor to her service in the Senate and White House. That raises questions about why so many voters opted for her opponent. This loss just underscores the amount of ingrained racism and white hetero-patriarchy, the deep-seatedness of white supremacy in this nation. You can't deny that she is someone who could have served as president on day one. Trump has repeatedly described Harris as low IQ and mentally disabled, even calling her one of the dumber people in the history of our country. That kind of rhetoric gave his supporters a licence to dismiss and denigrate Harris. The way that Trump has painted her and people's responses to her have just brought out the worst in a lot of folks.”

“This loss indicates we still have so much more work to do here in the US in terms of sex and race relations. Trump has afforded people the ability to be their worst selves, and that definitely includes being sexist and racist. The question of gender and race will continue to be a mobilising force. It's going to be a big rallying cry.”

“I don't believe in that [a wave of retaliation by Trump]. I think there's a lot of theater around that more than there is real sort of retribution. I would anticipate a lot of volatility - personnel but also significant boomerangs on policy. Not boomerang from Biden-Harris but boomerang from himself. You'll have one position one day and another the next.”

“No longer can the political establishment write off Mr. Trump as a temporary break from the long march of progress, a fluke who somehow sneaked into the White House in a quirky, one-off Electoral College win eight years ago. With his comeback victory to reclaim the presidency, Mr. Trump has now established himself as a transformational force reshaping the United States in his own image.”

“Trump has been more assertive and more aggressive on China on the campaign trail. The former president often says things as leverage and then changes them. While Trump in the first term was sort of able to be swayed a little bit by his relationship at times with Xi Jinping, we don't really know what would happen now.”

“We have to take Trump at face value. He assumes that he can strike a deal pretty quickly [and] that he would likely block any further assistance to Ukraine. For example, there is the possibility that Trump could reach a deal with Putin that excludes Zelenskyy's input - and could potentially concede quite a lot in terms of Ukraine and its territory. There's also a question of what kind of relationship he would have with Putin and with Russia, and whether that would embolden Russia more generally in the European context - and I think that's a real concern for a lot of people.”
