  • Rina Shah
    Rina Shah “Protests in US universities are a display of democracy in action, a welcome sight in an election year marked by concerns of voter apathy chiefly due to Israel's war on Gaza. So when I see a movement like this of students taking peaceful, non-violent action and expressing their concern about the US government backing of Israel, of where our tax money is going, I think that's extremely healthy. These students are out there concerned about America's role in backing Benjamin Netanyahu. On the one hand, we are supplying weapons and funds to do what he wants to do in Gaza, while on the other we are sending humanitarian aid to Gaza. This is the hypocrisy these students are concerned about.” 12 hours ago
  • Thomas Friedman
    Thomas Friedman “But revenge is not a strategy. It is pure insanity that Israel is now more than six months into this war and the Israeli military leadership - and virtually the entire political class - has allowed Netanyahu to continue to pursue a 'total victory' there, including probably soon plunging deep into Rafah, without any exit plan or Arab partner lined up to step in once the war ends. If Israel ends up with an indefinite occupation of both Gaza and the West Bank, it would be a toxic military, economic and moral overstretch that would delight Israel's most dangerous foe, Iran, and repel all its allies in the West and the Arab world.” 13 hours ago
  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “Of course, I'm grateful to all of our partners who have helped us with air defence: each air defence system and each air defence missile is literally saving lives. It's important that everything works out as quickly as possible: every new agreement with our partners to strengthen our air defence, every initiative from Ukraine's friends to help us, particularly with finding and supplying Patriot [anti-aircraft missile systems]. Ukraine needs at least seven [Patriot] systems. Our partners have these Patriots. Russian terrorists can see that unfortunately our partners aren't as determined to protect Europe from terror as they are to do so in the Middle East. But [our partners] can give us the air defence systems that we need. We mustn't waste time: we need to signal determination.” 17 hours ago
  • Antony Blinken
    Antony Blinken “I saw that Huawei just put out a new laptop that it boasted was AI capable, that uses an Intel chip. I think it demonstrates that what we're focused on is only the most sensitive technology that could pose a threat to our security. We're not focused on cutting off trade, or for that matter containing or holding back China.” 21 hours ago

“Those who claim that Republika Srpska is isolated probably think that we should be sitting in [U.S. President Joe] Biden's office and watching him stumble. Let them say what they want. After Lukashenka, I will talk with Putin in two or three days, then with the president of Tatarstan [Rustam Minnikhanov].”

“But as far as Belarus is concerned, it is part of the Union State. Unleashing aggression against Belarus will mean aggression against the Russian Federation. We will respond to this with all the means at our disposal.”

“We go there [to the talks] to listen to what Russia wants to say, we are going without any … preliminary agreement on what the outcome of these talks can be. We are going there to listen and to say what we think of this war and Russia's actions. Between now and the moment that the talks are wrapped up, [Belarusian President Alexander] Lukashenko assured President Zelenskyy that no Belarusian military force will be used against Ukraine. We can only hope that Lukashenko will stick to his word. And between now and the moment when these talks are wrapped up, we will continue to fiercely defend our country, to defeat Russian forces if they try to continue their offensive operations.”

“The Ukrainians are saying these talks will be held near the Ukrainian-Belarusian border, but according to the Russians, they believe, still, that the talks will take place in the southeastern city of Gomel in Belarus. There seems to be some confusion about where the location for these talks will be.”

“Sanctions will be imposed in any case. Whether they have a reason today, for example, in connection with the events in Ukraine, or there is no such reason - it will be found, because the goal is different, in this case the goal is to slow down the development of Russia and Belarus. With this aim, there will always be a reason to introduce certain illegitimate restrictions, and this is nothing more than unfair competition. Sanctions pressure is absolutely illegitimate.”

“This is definitely not an exercise. There are many facts that contradict that idea. This region is not on the schedule for the exercises, but some rather impressive forces have been placed there. It is not just some sort of field camp for soldiers to be moved to the firing ranges. No, this is a forward camp for offensive equipment. The exercises are only set to last 10 days. Even the minimal time periods that soldiers have been told of do not match the official dates of the exercises. We see them [Russian forces] in the Bryansk, Kursk, and Rostov regions and on the territory of the annexed Crimea region. In all these locations there are troops and equipment, although the exercises are taking place in Belarus.”

“The potential recognition of the occupied Crimea by Belarus will be a point of no return in our bilateral relations, and we will act respectively. Because for us, Crimea is not a field for compromises.”

“For us, it is very important that any talks (with Belarus) are coordinated with Lithuania, Poland and Latvia, which are at the forefront of the hybrid attack, and no decisions are taken which do not solve the situation fundamentally.”

“[The Belarusians] were bringing more migrants to the place where there was a forced attempt to cross. At the start, there were 100 people, but then the Belarusian side brought more people in trucks. Then there were 500 people.”

“It's shocking to see that the EU is showing solidarity with Poland when the country is letting a humanitarian crisis unfold. These people have been manipulated into this scheme. The EU should be questioning how to help them and not just how to respond to Belarus.”

“What we see in Minsk, this inhumane system of using refugees as tools to exert pressure on the European Union, has not improved but has got worse over the last days. We will toughen sanctions on individuals who are involved in this human trafficking, and we will have to talk about the fact that severe economic sanctions are inevitable ... We will have to tackle the airlines, too.”

“I have a child who is eight, she can't write properly. Why? Because school is not good. And I can see that the life of my children doesn't look good. I see the images every day, of people in the forest, but I am not afraid. The hardship in Belarus is temporary. A week, two weeks. But here, it is every day. Every day to see your good friend leave. You know each other for 20 years and then they leave for Belarus and you don't know what will happen to them. That is hard. But I still say go, and I am going because it is better than here.”

“You don't fight Belarusian disinformation with censorship. On the contrary, journalists should be allowed to document the situation as it is. We cannot accept that a government should encourage this kind of ban on journalistic coverage as soon as a sensitive situation arises. We believe that the state of emergency was introduced mainly to prevent the public from witnessing questionable activities along the country's border with Belarus. Critics have accused the Polish authorities of violating international law by pushing asylum seekers back across the border.”

“There are a lot of cases when Polish and Lithuanian border guards beat migrants and pushed them back to Belarusian territory. I would say that this is total shame and a total violation of any possible international conventions and rules.”

“We are shocked and angry about the situation at the border between Belarus and Poland. Once again, the EU is sealing off, creating a humanitarian crisis and unnecessary suffering. A 14-year-old is reported to have frozen to death at the border last night. It was avoidable.”
