IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • Steve Witkoff
    Steve Witkoff “The meeting was positive, upbeat, constructive. Everybody was there to get to the right outcome.” 23 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.” 23 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.” 23 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.” 23 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.” 23 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.” 23 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].” 23 hours ago

“Inflation is out of control and we think the bias will remain towards further monetary tightening [further rate increases] in the coming months.”

“When the Trump team starts engaging in these kinds of discussions, they will find that getting Putin to abandon his goal of subjugating all of Ukraine will be the hardest thing in this process. Trump will need to continue aid to Ukraine if he is serious about getting Putin to end the fighting. We will have movement toward a negotiated settlement only if Ukraine acquires greater capabilities to inflict damage inside Russia. Until that happens, Putin has very little incentive to abandon his strategy of making gradual gains on the battlefield and just waiting for the West to abandon support. Trump may seek to change Putin's calculus on Ukraine by countering the Kremlin's interests in other regions like the Arctic, Middle East, Africa or targeting his allies like Iran and North Korea. What we may see from from Trump is a broadening of the bargaining game, taking it to other areas to send more and more messages to Putin.”

“There's no way Ukraine is also going to push these people [Russian forces] all the way back to where they were on the eve of the invasion just given the size dynamic. Ukraine isn't running out of money, it is running out of people. If we want to be honest about bringing that [war] to an end, true diplomacy will require concessions from every party engaged in those conversations.”

“The agreement is a fragile truce, not a cessation of conflict. It will require continued monitoring and accountability and an almost immediate return to the negotiation table to keep the remaining phases alive. President-elect Donald Trump's warnings to both Hamas and Israel have clearly been effective in reviving the drawn-out negotiations where the Biden administration proved unwilling to exert adequate pressure over Israel's leadership.”

“For Palestinians, who have endured more than 15 months of devastating and relentless bombardment, have been displaced from their homes repeatedly, and are struggling to survive in makeshift tents without food, water and basic supplies, the nightmare will not be over even if the bombs cease. Israel must dismantle the brutal system of apartheid it imposes to dominate and oppress Palestinians and end its unlawful occupation of the Occupied Palestinian Territory once and for all.”

“Promising news coming out of Gaza. World Food Program has life-saving assistance ready at the borders to help feed 1M+ acutely hungry Palestinians, but we need: guaranteed safety of humanitarians, safe movement of food across all border crossings, and more funding to deliver at scale.”

“As I process this moment, I feel both a flicker of hope and a tide of anger. Hope that this pause might save lives, and anger that it has taken so much suffering to reach even this fragile point. The cameras will turn away soon, the world's attention will shift, but for us, this is not an end. Ceasefires are not peace. They are moments of quiet in an unending storm. Until justice is realised, until dignity and equality are more than distant dreams, the cycle will continue.”

“This did not dampen resolve, but rather motivated and encouraged us to assume the responsibility of supporting Gaza, which is a religious and humanitarian responsibility for which the entire nation is responsible. The Israeli invasion of Gaza left no room for our dear people, who are saturated with the spirit of faith, to participate and support in fulfilling their responsibility towards an oppressed people who are being subjected to genocidal massacres before the eyes and ears of the entire world.”

“Biden deserves praise for continuing to push the talks. But Trump's threats to Hamas and his efforts to cajole Netanyahu deserve credit as well. The ironic reality is that at a time of heightened partisanship even over foreign policy, the deal represents how much more powerful and influential U.S. foreign policy can be when it's bipartisan.”

“We breathe a huge sigh of relief of a possible ceasefire deal after 15 months of mass murder and total devastation in Gaza. The world will see the magnitude of Israel's criminal and genocidal aggression. It will see the price of the collective failure to stop a genocide. Now let the journey of healing begin, starting with burying our dead, attending to our wounded, providing for basic human needs and rebuilding livelihoods. The world must not fail us again.”

“Far too many innocent people have been killed, in Gaza and in Israel, since this conflict commenced. Our attention must turn to how we secure a permanently better future for the Israeli and Palestinian people - grounded in a two-state solution that will guarantee security and stability for Israel, alongside a sovereign and viable Palestine state.”

“Positive news about a ceasefire in Gaza. It is now crucial that the deal holds and that hostilities end, allowing Israeli hostages to return home safely and ensuring that the people of Gaza receive the humanitarian aid they so urgently need. I commend the US, Egypt, and Qatar for their mediation efforts. In close coordination with regional and international partners, the Netherlands has been continuously advocating for an agreement. Let this be a first step towards durable and lasting peace.”

“The fact that an agreement on a ceasefire and the release of hostages in Gaza, including Germans, seems to have been reached is good news! This agreement must now be implemented to the letter. All of the hostages must be released. The mortal remains of the deceased must also be handed over to the families for a dignified burial. This ceasefire opens the door to a permanent end to the war and to the improvement of the poor humanitarian situation in Gaza. We are continuing to work towards this.”

“This is the long-overdue news that the Israeli and Palestinian people have desperately been waiting for. The hostages, who were brutally ripped from their homes on that day and held captive in unimaginable conditions ever since, can now finally return to their families. But we should also use this moment to pay tribute to those who won't make it home - including the British people who were murdered by Hamas. We will continue to mourn and remember them. This ceasefire must allow for a huge surge in humanitarian aid, which is so desperately needed to end the suffering in Gaza. And then our attention must turn to how we secure a permanently better future for the Israeli and Palestinian people - grounded in a two-state solution that will guarantee security and stability for Israel, alongside a sovereign and viable Palestine state.”

“I warmly welcome the ceasefire and hostage release agreement in Gaza. Hostages will be reunited with their loved ones and humanitarian aid can reach civilians in Gaza. This brings hope to an entire region, where people have endured immense suffering for far too long. Both parties must fully implement this agreement, as a stepping stone toward lasting stability in the region and a diplomatic resolution of the conflict.”
