  • David Cameron
    David Cameron “We will give three billion pounds every year for as long as is necessary. We've just really emptied all we can in terms of giving equipment. The aid package was the largest from the UK so far. Some of that (equipment) is actually arriving in Ukraine today, while I'm here. Ukraine has a right to use the weapons provided by London to strike targets inside Russia, and that it was up to Kyiv whether to do so. Ukraine has that right. Just as Russia is striking inside Ukraine, you can quite understand why Ukraine feels the need to make sure it's defending itself.” 32 seconds ago
  • Ursula von der Leyen
    Ursula von der Leyen “I am following the situation in Georgia with great concern and condemn the violence on the streets of Tbilisi. The European Union has also clearly expressed its concerns regarding the law on foreign influence. The Georgian people want a European future for their country.” 23 hours ago
  • Oleksandr Kozachenko
    Oleksandr Kozachenko “If we compare it with the beginning (of the Russian invasion), when we fired up to 100 shells a day, then now, when we fire 30 shells it's a luxury. Sometimes the number of shells fired daily is in single digits.” 23 hours ago
  • Abdallah al-Dardari
    Abdallah al-Dardari “The United Nations Development Programme's initial estimates for the reconstruction of … the Gaza Strip surpasses $30bn and could reach up to $40bn. The scale of the destruction is huge and unprecedented … this is a mission that the global community has not dealt with since World War II.” 23 hours ago

“Kim Yo Jong courteously conveyed Kim Jong Un's thanks to Putin to the Russian side, saying that the gift serves as a clear demonstration of the special personal relations between the top leaders of the DPRK and Russia and as the best one.”

“All of a sudden South Korea's rhetoric became even more hostile towards Pyongyang. In Japan as well, we hear aggressive rhetoric and it is seriously talking about setting up NATO infrastructure with U.S. assistance. They're preparing for war with the DPRK.”

“The surprise ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile) launching drill … is an actual proof of the DPRK strategic nuclear force's consistent efforts to turn its capacity of fatal nuclear counterattack on the hostile forces into the irresistible one.”

“If they would have a conversation with us ... arms control can always be an option if you have two willing countries willing to sit down at the table and talk. And not just arms control, but risk reduction - everything that leads up to a traditional arms-control treaty and all the different aspects of arms control that we can have with them. We've made it very clear to the DPRK ... that we're ready to talk to them - we have no pre-conditions.”

“U.S. intelligence believes that the North is preparing its Punggye-ri test site for what would be its seventh nuclear test. This assessment is consistent with the DPRK's own recent public statements. We are preparing for all contingencies in close coordination with our Japanese and ROK allies. Furthermore, we are prepared to make both short and longer term adjustments to our military posture as appropriate in responding to any DPRK provocation and as necessary to strengthen both defense and deterrence to protect our allies in the region.”

“While the DPRK escalates its destabilizing actions, the Security Council continues to remain silent. Each ballistic missile launch that results in inaction by the council erodes the credibility of the U.N. Security Council itself in addressing the DPRK and undermines the global non- proliferation regime. The United States remained committed to seeking serious and sustained diplomacy with North Korea but Pyongyang had opted instead for an "increasingly escalatory series of ballistic missile launches in total violation of international law. We stand ready to collaborate and determine a mutually agreeable approach with other council members to address the DPRK's provocations.”

“If they do want to see some new breakthrough, they should show more sincerity and flexibility. They should come up with more attractive and more practical, more flexible approaches, policies and actions and accommodating the concerns of the DPRK. What I see is the key in solving this issue is already in the hands of the United States. As a result of former US President Donald Trump's policy on North Korea, Pyongyang had suspended nuclear tests and international ballistic missile launches. However, in recent months we have seen a vicious circle of confrontation, condemnation, sanctions.”

“Kim [Kim Jong-un] voluntarily placed the moratorium as an enticement to spur progress in negotiations with the U.S. When it became clear that he would not get his way in the negotiations, Kim had alluded to the possibility of lifting the moratorium. So it was a matter of when - not if - that the DPRK would lift its nuclear and missile moratorium.”

“These designations convey our serious and ongoing concern about the DPRK's continued proliferation activities and those who support it. The United States will use every appropriate tool to address the DPRK's WMD and ballistic missile programs, which constitute a serious threat to international peace and security and undermine the global nonproliferation regime.”

“The United States and the ROK remain committed to a diplomatic approach to the DPRK. And we continue to call upon the DPRK to engage in dialogue, but we also discussed measures to enhance our combined deterrence posture and to defend against the full range of threats. We also approved new strategic planning guidance (SPG), an important step forward to frame forthcoming alliance planning efforts.”

“We call on the DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] to cease these provocations and other destabilising activities, and instead, engage in dialogue. We remain ready to meet with the DPRK without preconditions and we have made clear that the United States harbours no hostile intent towards the DPRK.”

“Special Representative Noh [Noh Kyu-duk] and I also discussed the end of war proposal, and I look forward to continuing those discussions and other issues of mutual concern when I'm in Seoul later this week. The U.S. continues to reach out to Pyongyang to restart dialogue. Our intent remains the same. We harbor no hostile intent toward the DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] and we are open to meeting without preconditions.”

“Even when we disagree with a particular regime, we believe that we must work to the best of our ability to do all we can to alleviate the suffering of the people. And so we continue to support international efforts aimed at the provision of critical humanitarian aid to the DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea]. It's important to emphasize, at the same time, that the DPRK regime itself is primarily responsible for the humanitarian situation in the country. The regime continues to exploit its own citizens, to violate their human rights, to divert resources from the country's people to build up its unlawful WMD [weapon of mass destruction] and ballistic missiles program.”

“The UNSC [U.N. Security Council] ... put on the table the issue pertaining to the DPRK's exercise of sovereignty. This means an open ignorance of and wanton encroachment on the sovereignty of the DPRK and a serious intolerable provocation against it. This is a denial of impartiality, objectivity and equilibrium, lifelines of the UN activities, and an evident manifestation of double-dealing standard. North Korea has never acknowledged the partial and illegal U.N. 'resolution' that seriously encroaches upon the right to existence and development of sovereign states. I express strong concerns over the fact that the UNSC amused itself with the dangerous 'time-bomb' this time. The weapons tests have never posed any threats or harm to the security of the neighboring countries.”

“The DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] knows President Moon [Moon Jae-in] wants to take one last shot at forging a peace regime on the Korean Peninsula, while the North wants sanctions relief. It seems to me that due to these factors - and if the U.S. is at least willing to entertain some sort of sanctions relief - an inter-Korean summit seems inevitable.”

“I and Comrade General Secretary have maintained close communication and led the bilateral relations for them to develop in a stable way and, thus steadily made good success, which further enriched the traditional bilateral friendship. I highly value the development of the China-DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] relations and intend to develop these ties of friendship and cooperation on a long-term basis and in a stable way.”

“We are looking forward to a reliable, predictable, constructive way forward with the DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea]. As the first vice foreign minister [South Korea's First Vice Foreign Minister Choi Jong-kun] noted, we have offered to sit and dialogue with the North Koreans, and we're waiting to hear from them. And as he also has said, we all feel for the people of the DPRK, who are indeed, facing all the most difficult circumstances given the pandemic, and what it means as well for their food security. We only hope for a better outcome for the people of the DPRK.”

We took note of Chairman Kim's [Kim Jong-un] recent statement, referring to both dialogue and confrontation. We will be prepared for either.”
