  • Recep Tayyip Erdogan
    Recep Tayyip Erdogan “Israel's goal is to settle in Gaza, eliminate the Palestinian community in the West Bank and ultimately annex this territory. This is where Israel wants to go. We must prevent this. Whereas only a tiny handful of Western countries are supporting Israel militarily, politically, economically, and morally, the inadequate reaction from Muslim countries has led to this situation. It is crucial that we continue coordinating our initiatives and take decisive measures against those who are behind the genocide in Palestine. It is paramount that we impose an arms embargo, stop trade and isolate Israel.” 5 hours ago
  • Shigeru Ishiba
    Shigeru Ishiba “We must remind ourselves of the basics that politics is for the people, as we tackle political and party reforms. We must be able to have empathy for the pain, sorrow and anger of the people. While we stick to the LDP-Komei partnership as the foundation, we will do our utmost to gain understanding of as many other parties as possible as we humbly work to ensure safety and security of the people.” 8 hours ago
  • Oleksandr Syrskyi
    Oleksandr Syrskyi “Following the orders of their military leadership, they are trying to displace our troops and advance deep into the territory we control. Were it not for the resilience of our soldiers, these tens of thousands of enemies from the best Russian units would have stormed our positions.” 9 hours ago
  • Israel Katz
    Israel Katz “Iran is more vulnerable than ever to targeting its nuclear facilities. There is [now] a possibility of removing the threat. The primary goal is achievable - to thwart and eliminate the threat of Israel's annihilation.” 12 hours ago
  • Marwan Bishara
    Marwan Bishara “The war in Lebanon is becoming more costly to Israel, which may be looking to draw the conflict to a close by obtaining security guarantees in southern Lebanon. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said earlier that there had been certain progress” in talks about a ceasefire in Lebanon, but Hezbollah said it hadn't received any peace proposal yet. What they mean is that in the talks with the United States and others, perhaps the Lebanese government, there were some steps forward but nothing that can yet be presented to Hezbollah. In the process of dividing and occupying the Gaza Strip, the big prize for Israel is not Gaza. It's the West Bank. The appointment of Yechiel Leiter, who lives in the Gush Etzion settlement, as the next Israeli ambassador to the US signals the Netanyahu government intends to work with President-elect Donald Trump to expand Israeli settlements. Netanyahu is dreaming of the West Bank, and he could even barter some sort of agreement in Gaza in exchange.” 12 hours ago
  • James Stavridis
    James Stavridis “If Trump can end the Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours, I'll be the first one voting for his Nobel Peace Prize. What I hope he does, and I think he will, is put pressure on both sides to get to the negotiating table, and it comes out kind of like the end of the Korean War, which is to say, Putin, unfortunately, but in a real world, will end up with about 20 percent of Ukraine, the chunk that he currently holds, but the rest of Ukraine, the 80 percent, all those resources, vast majority of the population, they stay democratic, free. Ukraine will also get a path to NATO, probably three to five years, realistically. It's not the worst outcome in the world. Keep in mind that a negotiated settlement is not something the U.S. can impose-but for the Ukrainians and Russians to agree upon. Negotiating a ceasefire and eventual settlement will take months. Ukraine's entry into NATO could be accomplished over a couple years.” 15 hours ago
  • Bezalel Smotrich
    Bezalel Smotrich “The only way to remove this danger from the agenda is to apply Israeli sovereignty over the settlements in Judea and Samaria. I have directed the start of professional work to prepare the necessary infrastructure to apply Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria [the West Bank].” 15 hours ago
  • Tohid Asadi
    Tohid Asadi “In a rare visit to Tehran, this high-ranking Saudi Arabian delegate, headed by the chief of staff, met with his Iranian counterpart here in the capital. The discussions, as expected, revolved around military and defense issues, and specifically, they talked about the expansion of cooperation in this particular arena. They also discussed a drill-a military naval drill between the two countries. Around three weeks ago, Iranian Naval Commander Shahram Irani said that there is a possibility of such a military drill between Saudi Arabia and Iran, two regional powerhouses with a history of rivalry, so it could be considered a step forward in the ties between the two. Added to that is the discussion they had regarding regional issues, in particular the Palestinian issue, which was a key point of concern for both sides; they had a conversation on that as well. This visit takes place after the election of Trump in the United States, who promised peace in West Asia. However, the possibility of tensions ramping up to the next level is still here, so the two sides-I mean Iran and Saudi Arabia-are indeed trying to make sure that everything is on the right track. They are trying to build a sort of confidence when it comes to collective action against collective threats. All in all, I think Iran, in this regard, tries to send two clear messages. The first message relates to the urgency of this collective action against Israeli aggressive behaviors; this has been emphasized by Iranian officials several times. The second message that Iranians are trying to send is that if their land - if Iranian sovereignty - is attacked by aerospace or land of any third country, there would be a possibility of further escalation and a full-fledged, all-out war scenario.” 15 hours ago
  • Catherine Fieschi
    Catherine Fieschi “There's going to be some pain before that pain galvanises [the continent] into further European unity. It's not going to be an instant wake-up call. In January as we know, it's going to be a swift and brutal transition of [US] power. We're going to see a dip, some panic, some chaos, some uncertainty. In the end, given the brutality of what's coming from the Trump White House, we're going to see more cohesion in Europe than what we've seen for the past years. I think we're finally maybe going to see the Zeitenwende [epochal change] that's been promised for years actually taking shape.” 18 hours ago
  • Anna Wieslander
    Anna Wieslander “Trump has been very clear that Europeans need to ramp up their defence spending even further. He wants a three percent of GDP pledge and we can expect him to push this hard. Europeans have long recognised the need to step up on security and defence, but this realisation has not been matched by resources or true political will. The systemic threat that Russia poses to European security makes this shift extremely urgent if American engagement decreases. The first thing Europe needs to do now is to take the lead in supporting Ukraine towards victory against Russia. Europe will also be up against opposition to autonomy from Trump. He does not want the European defence market to become autonomous, which is a prerequisite for European strategic autonomy. Rather, we saw during the previous Trump administration that he pushed Europeans to buy more American defence material. Neither has he expressed any wish for the Europeans to develop their own nuclear deterrence, another necessary condition for European strategic autonomy.” 18 hours ago
  • Anna Jacobs
    Anna Jacobs “Donald Trump's election last week for a second term in the White House is likely to be on leaders' minds in Riyadh. This summit is very much an opportunity for regional leaders to signal to the incoming Trump administration what they want in terms of US engagement. The message will likely be one of dialogue, de-escalation and calling out Israeli military campaigns in the region.” 18 hours ago
  • Najib Mikati
    Najib Mikati “Lebanon is going through an unprecedented historical and existential crisis that threatens its present and future.” 18 hours ago
  • Ahmed Aboul Gheit
    Ahmed Aboul Gheit “Words cannot express the plight of the Palestinian people. The actions taken by Israel against the Palestinian people are undermining efforts to achieve lasting peace. It is only with justice that we will be able to establish lasting peace. The world cannot turn a blind eye on the Israeli violence.” 18 hours ago

“We regret the injury to the UNIFIL soldiers, and we are doing everything in our power to prevent this injury. But the simple and obvious way to ensure this is simply to get them out of the danger zone.”

“I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people. It should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by the national guard, or if really necessary, by the military, because they can't let that happen.”

“While military threats are no small matter, we all knew the PRC [People's Republic of China] would respond to Lai's Double Ten Day speech with military threats of some sort. There is no need to panic or overreact. We all saw this coming. It will pass quickly.”

“It was widely anticipated that the PLA [People's Liberation Army] would conduct military exercises following Lai's National Day speech. The drills have the effect of demonstrating to the domestic audience that the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] has the resolve to defend Chinese territory. They are also intended to warn Taipei and Washington not to cross Beijing's red lines.”

“The Kim regime needed an issue to incite anti-South Korean sentiment among its people, and the drone incursions provided that opportunity. I've heard that some civic groups have been seeking more effective ways to deliver the leaflets, as many balloons fail to reach North Korean territory. But this drone incident may involve lesser-known civic groups, as their leaflet designs are different from the typical ones we have seen before. Unlike balloons, flying drones across the border could be seen as a violation of international law and the Korean Armistice Agreement. North Korea could leverage this incident to justify future provocations.”

“If the drones truly infiltrated Pyongyang three times and spread the leaflets, the leadership would not have been able to hide it from residents. The North seems to be using this crisis as an opportunity to stir up anti-South Korea sentiment and portray South Koreans as evil, as part of their push for a two-state system.”

“The Hezbollah attack in Binyamina shows that attacking Lebanon carries a heavy price for Israelis too. Nothing less was expected. We are at the beginning of the war in Lebanon, not at the end of it. And everyone so enthusiastic about this war should know that it will carry a very heavy price. The attack on the Golani Brigade post that wounded at least 67 people is a message that Hezbollah is alive and kicking. This will not be a picnic and is going to be a very bloody business. The Israeli public should also be aware that today's military operations into southern Lebanon will be far worse than the 2006 war as the group is much stronger today.”

“They do not want to have a UN force that is able to report and observe the activities of the Israeli forces on the ground. The Israelis seem to be intent on carrying out a similar campaign in southern Lebanon to that which they just conducted and are continuing to conduct in Gaza. And they must not be allowed to do this.”

“We see an increasing alliance between Russia and regimes like North Korea. This is no longer just about transferring weapons. It is actually about transferring people from North Korea to the occupying military forces. Obviously, in such circumstances, our relations with partners need to develop further. The frontline needs more support. When we talk about giving Ukraine greater long-range capabilities and more decisive supplies for our forces, it's not just a list of military equipment. It's about increasing the pressure on the aggressor - pressure that will be stronger than what Russia can handle. And it's about preventing an even larger war.”

“Hezbollah is an organisation now without a chief after the killing of Nasrallah but this attack shows that clearly hasn't changed its capabilities. Hezbollah says unless there's a ceasefire in Gaza, it won't stop launching rockets at Israel. In fact, it said it will increase attacks deeper into Israel.”

“The only way to stop Hamas and bring an end to the yearlong war is to prevent its access to aid. They will either have to surrender or to starve. It doesn't necessarily mean that we're going to kill every person. It will not be necessary. People will not be able to live there (the north). The water will dry up.”

“These [Lebanese villages] are military targets containing underground tunnels and weapon storages. Our troops found hundreds of RPGs, munitions and anti-tank missiles here. The IDF is currently destroying these weapons above and under the ground. I have instructed the IDF at all levels to ensure the destruction of [attack infrastructure] and to ensure that terrorists cannot return to these places. This is essential in order to ensure the safety of Israel's northern communities.”
