Margus Tsahkna “This is a hybrid attack. If we look at the very different spheres of life in which Russia interferes in our lives on our territory. Whether it is deliberate attacks through the special services on our public assets, on our monuments. Whether it is cyberattacks, or whether it is completely deliberate action in terms of jamming the GPS signal. Russia knows very well that the interference they are causing is very dangerous for our air traffic and, specifically, is also in breach of international conventions to which Russia is a party. So, this is a deliberate action that is disrupting our lives, putting people's lives at risk.” 14 hours ago
Osama Hamdan “It's clear from the Israeli paper that they are still insisting on two major issues. They don't want a complete ceasefire and they are not talking, in a serious way, about the withdrawal from Gaza. In fact, they are still talking about their presence … which means that they will keep continuing [occupying] Gaza. We have serious questions for the mediators. If there [are] positive answers, I think we can move forward. Stopping the attacks against Palestinians is not generous [Blinken claimed that the Israeli proposal was an 'extraordinarily generous' offer]. The attack itself is a crime, so when you stop a crime, you can't claim that it's a generous action from the Israeli side.” 14 hours ago
Tim Wu “ByteDance, for its part, maintains that it is not actually subject to control by the Chinese government. The weight of the evidence suggests otherwise: The Chinese state owns a “golden share” in the company, the firm is based in China, and studies suggest that the government shapes TikTok content in accordance with party preferences. ByteDance has said it has no plans to sell TikTok; but that might merely be a means of driving up the price. What the company now has is a golden opportunity to prove its independence for once and for all: by selling TikTok and taking the money.” 17 hours ago
Jens Stoltenberg “For months the U.S. was unable to agree a package and European allies have been unable to deliver ammunition at the scale we promised. Ukraine has been outgunned for months and forced to ration its ammunition.... More support is on the way.” 17 hours ago
Ting-yu Wang “A visit to China by a group of 17 Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) lawmakers is doing nothing regarding China's continuing military intimidation against Taiwan. The KMT members have become tools for Beijing's united front propaganda campaign. Beijing is manipulating Taiwan's parliament by using democracy to kill democracy. It is regretful that the 17 KMT lawmakers now in China are afraid to speak up for Taiwan, as we still face constant military threats from China and intimidatory gray zone tactics. We cannot see how the KMT's 'trip to promote peace and friendship' has achieved anything. Instead they are acting like sycophants by pandering to Chinese officials.” 18 hours ago
Volodymyr Zelenskiy “Timely support for our army. Today I don't see anything positive on this point yet. There are supplies, they have slowly begun, but this process needs to be sped up. Promptness in supply literally means a stabilization of the front line.... Together we must disrupt the Russian offensive.” 18 hours ago
Natasa Pirc Musar “I am supporting him [Borut Pahor]. Pahor would be a good candidate. His political experience of 17 years in the highest positions in my republic shows he is capable of holding such a position. Slovenia is an ideal candidate for that [role, EU special envoy for Kosovo-Serbia dialogue], knowing the region, we know the mentality, the culture, because of the roots from the past and I can assure you that Slovenia never has a hidden agenda. That is our added value.” 18 hours ago

“Ukraine clearly lacks sufficient air-defense systems and this is evident to all of our partners. There are air-defense systems around the world that can help. Only political will is required to transfer them to Ukraine. Patriots' must now be in Ukraine, so there will be no need to use them on NATO's entire eastern flank in the future.”

“Highly motivated technology teams are relentlessly working to improve their products, which are already being used by our forces, and developing their start-ups based on the goal we set for them in order to enable us to achieve our tactical and strategic objectives. We're not just talking about surface- and air-based drones, but also robotised systems that can undertake tasks such as mine clearance, remotely controlled weapon stations, and other technologies that we will soon see being deployed. Our enemies are going to feel the impact. We should pay particular attention to remotely controlled weapon systems, which will soon be used in battle.”

“U.S. should refrain from turning economic and trade issues into political or security issues and view the issue of production capacity from a market-oriented and global perspective. The development of China's clean energy sector, where overcapacity concerns are felt most acutely, will support the global energy transition.”

“While we have more to do, I believe that, over the past year, we have put our bilateral relationship on more stable footing. This has not meant ignoring our differences or avoiding tough conversations. It has meant understanding that we can only make progress if we directly and openly communicate with one another.”
