  • 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.” 4 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.” 7 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.” 14 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].” 14 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.” 14 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.” 17 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.” 17 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.” 17 hours ago
  • Najib Mikati
    Najib Mikati “Lebanon is going through an unprecedented historical and existential crisis that threatens its present and future.” 17 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.” 17 hours ago

“Ishiba long alienated party heavyweights with his outspoken criticism of LDP policies under Abe. But he became vocal about the need for the LDP to turn over a new leaf, which may have worked in his favor.”

“The Israeli strike appeared designed to give Tehran an opportunity to avoid further escalation. We see that Israel wants to close this event, to pass this message to Iran that it is closed and we don't want to escalate it.”

“The escalating conflict between Israel and Iran is now likely to cool down. By targeting military sites and missile facilities over nuclear and energy infrastructure, Israel is also messaging that it seeks no further escalation for now.”

“Israel's attack did not take out highly visible or symbolic facilities that could prompt a significant response from Iran. It also gives Israel room for escalation if needed, and targeting air defence systems weakens Iran's capabilities to defend against future attacks.”

“He highly orchestrated Israeli attacks on Iran - with targets pre-negotiated with Iran by the US - appear to have been nothing more than political theatre to allow Israel to save face while relying on Iran to act responsibly not to escalate this war further. The Biden administration's claims of victory that its newest THAAD carrots to curb even greater Israeli belligerence really only begs the question of why the US needs to constantly curry favour with an unhinged, bellicose government.”

“Gainst that backdrop, most people will be taking Bidzina Ivanishvili's claims of a government majority with a large bucket of salt. We believe the Georgian public has voted clearly for a future at the heart of Europe and no amount of posturing will change that.”

“Parties in favor of joining the EU had won, despite attempts to rig elections and without votes from the diaspora. Overseas polling stations are continuing to accept ballots. I think there will be temptation for him [Bidzina Ivanishvili] to cling on power, but the lead of opposition is so significant that he will have to accept defeat.”

“Israeli strike on Iran is nothing more than a fraction of the harm Israel can inflict to the regime, should it choose to continue its aggression. Israel's direct and precise strike last night on Iranian territory targeting key security industries and military targets is important not only in of itself but due to the method by which it was executed. The attack marks a new stage in our war against the Iranian regime that paves the way for future operations. The campaign is far from over. We must continue persevering in the efforts to bring our hostages home, replace the Hamas regime, and continue to degrade Hezbollah's capabilities to create a new reality on our northern border that will enable our citizens to return home and live in safety.”

“How can they be watching these horrible attacks on healthcare workers? We need an additional factor to understand why this has been allowed to go on, and that is actually that the Palestinian people are defined as under-humans. We would never have allowed this to happen, for example, in Ukraine. Almost 250,000 people in the northern part of Gaza have now no healthcare, and that in itself is part of the genocide.”

“This is the 14th time the hospital comes under Israeli fire. Our doctors are now in Israeli detention, their families were killed. It is a catastrophic situation as patients and the wounded are left on the floor without any medical attention. We are facing grave dangers and here I am once again sending an SOS to the whole world. We pray to God almighty our plight comes to an end and Israeli massacres ceased. The entire population north of Gaza Strip are now without any medical service after all the hospitals have been destroyed and forced out of operation.”
