  • Wang Wenbin
    Wang Wenbin “China is not the creator of or a party to the Ukraine Crisis. We have been on the side of peace and dialogue and committed to promoting peace talks. We actively support putting in place a balanced, effective and sustainable European security architecture. Our fair and objective position and constructive role have been widely recognized. 'Let the person who tied the bell on the tiger untie it,' to quote a Chinese saying. Our message to the US: stop shifting the blame on China; do not try to drive a wedge between China and Europe; and it is time to stop fueling the flame and start making real contribution to finding a political solution to the Ukraine crisis.” 4 hours ago
  • Korean Central News Agency
    Korean Central News Agency “On May 17, the North Korean Missile General Bureau conducted a test launch of a tactical ballistic missile equipped with a new navigation system of autonomous guidance. The test launch confirmed the accuracy and reliability of the system. The launch was carried out as part of the regular activities of the North Korean Missile General Bureau and subordinate defense research institutes for the active development of weapons technology.” 5 hours ago
  • Yang Moo-jin
    Yang Moo-jin “It is part of North Korea's propaganda approach to develop a voice in global affairs. Kim's statement comes amid Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping holding talks in Beijing, the West pressuring North Korea and Russia with sanctions and South Korea planning to stage Ulchi Freedom Shiled, a joint annual military drill with the U.S. in August. It may be true that North Korea is honing existing weapons to attack Seoul, but we cannot rule out the possibility of the country pulling weapons from its stocks and shipping them to Russia after further testing and deploying.” 5 hours ago
  • Park Won-gon
    Park Won-gon “Kim's [Kim Yo-jong syster of the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un] statement suggests that North Korea is concerned about international sanctions. I believe sanctions are still an effective tool. North Korea fears that if it admits its arms dealings with Russia, it may turn its European allies into enemies.” 5 hours ago
  • Kim Yo-jong
    Kim Yo-jong “We have no intention to export our military technical capabilities to any country or open them to the public. Our tactical weapons, including multiple rocket launchers and missiles, will be used to prevent Seoul from inventing any idle thinking.” 5 hours ago
  • Frank Kendall
    Frank Kendall “China has fielded a number of space capabilities designed to target our forces. And we're not going to be able operate in the Western Pacific successfully unless we can defeat those. China had tripled its network of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance satellites since 2018.” 5 hours ago
  • Ants Kiviselg
    Ants Kiviselg “The Russian Armed Forces are advancing on the recently opened Kharkiv front, but their pace is slowing down. This and the nature of their behaviour rather indicate a desire to create a buffer zone. Russian troops have attacked and destroyed important bridges in the area of Vovchansk, which creates a natural barrier between Ukrainian and Russian forces. This is more an indication of the intention of Russian forces to build a defensive line than to create a bridgehead for an advance on Kharkiv.” 15 hours ago
  • Vladimir Putin
    Vladimir Putin “Russia is ready and able to continuously power the Chinese economy, businesses, cities and towns with affordable and environmentally clean energy.” 15 hours ago
  • Alexey Muraviev
    Alexey Muraviev “There are limits to the two nations' ties, despite their insistence that it is limitless. The limits are that the two countries don't have a formal alliance agreement. To me, that's very clearly a sign that there are limitations to what seems to be a limitless relationship. Neither side is prepared to unconditionally commit to support each other on issues like Ukraine.” 15 hours ago

“We will be ready to consider the possibility of reviving the grain deal and I told Mr President [Erdogan] about this again today - we will do this as soon as all the agreements on lifting restrictions on the export of Russian agricultural products are fully implemented.”

“He [Erdogan] would contest the results if they aren't in his favour and if the margin is narrow, but he can't do much if the opposition gets a landslide victory. He is at the weakest point in his political career.”

“Erdogan wants a green light for a military operation in Syria. As we saw at the Tehran summit, Iran and Russia are against this operation but I think Erdogan can persuade Putin. Many things depend on the domestic situation in Turkey because Erdogan wants to launch the operation before the elections so he can consolidate at least a few percentage points in the vote.”

“It is important to interpret Putin and Erdogan's trip to Iran within the context of increased East-West bifurcation following the Ukraine war. As the war rages and Russia's economy has taken a hit from Western sanctions, Moscow seeks stronger ties with non-Western countries that do not support the measures. There is a strong message being sent to Washington about Moscow, Tehran, and Ankara's desires to work together without US policies, positions, and agendas being imposed on them.”

“The next step is likely to be a flurry of behind-the-scenes diplomacy, and international pressure, to convince Turkey to quickly remove the roadblock. Sweden and Finland will seek to placate Turkey, but we can also expect the US and the EU to play a leading role in this pressure campaign. After all, both have some leverage over Turkey, be it through [Washington's] sale of military equipment or the [EU's] provision of aid as part of the 2016 migration deal. The most likely outcome remains Finland and Sweden joining the alliance very soon. Erdogan is a transactional leader, and the costs of blocking the two Nordic countries - deeply angering Western allies - would far outweigh the benefits in terms of domestic support. Erdogan also briefly blocked in 2009 the nomination of Anders Fogh Rasmussen as NATO's secretary-general, before relenting after receiving a prize in a high-level appointment for a Turkish official in the alliance. Since the rest of the alliance is welcoming Finland and Sweden with open arms, there is clear political will to overcome this temporary roadblock.”

“Turkey has every right to block Sweden and Finland's ascension to NATO. However, such a position would be costly as NATO members would likely approach Turkey as a problem child moving forward. It is hard to see Turkey's future position since it is mostly based on domestic political developments. We should remember that Erdogan has been doing these policy changes to win the next election.”

“Turkey and Ukraine were enjoying good and friendly relations before the war. Turkey has strongly supported Ukrainian independence in the 1990s. After its independence, they worked closely to establish a stable environment in the Black Sea [through] economic and military cooperation. Turkey has been playing an active role with its drones, and eight trucks of humanitarian aid have been delivered to local authorities in Ukraine and neighbouring Moldova. Furthermore, in an hourlong call with Moscow [last] Sunday, Erdogan appealed for an urgent general ceasefire. On the fifth day of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, Erdogan, one more time, repeated that Turkey could not abandon its ties with Russia or Ukraine. Turkey is still trying to perpetuate the balance-based policy, which does not mean that Turkey has been establishing its policies without a dilemma. Instead, Turkey has been in a stuck position between Russia and the West regarding security, economy, and energy.”

“He [Erdogan] would ask Putin to give a chance to a ceasefire, stop his attacks, and help set up corridors needed for evacuations of civilians and shipments of aid. We are focusing on what steps we can take here to bring the sides to the negotiating table and to convince the Russian side (to stop). It is important that Moscow had a reliable counterpart to talk to as the West had burned bridges with it. This network of trust (with Russia) must absolutely be kept open for these talks, diplomacy to succeed. Otherwise it will be impossible for the whole region, including Russia and Ukraine, to escape from this destruction.”

“Politics is for serving the citizens and solving the problems of citizens. Unfortunately, the palace [of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan] forgot both the citizens and their problems. Citizens are imprisoned by poverty. The government continuously increases prices of almost everything, including electricity, gas, petroleum, taxes and fees. The high cost of living is making citizens poorer.”

“We live with inflation in Turkey. The biggest components of what we spend money on are food, rent, and transportation, and these are the kind of prices the average consumer faces on a daily or monthly basis. So if you are lying to them, it's very obvious. It undermines trust in Erdogan and the AKP. Turkish public's perceptions of inflation can also drive prices higher. If people think inflation is close to 100 percent, anyone who has any bargaining ability, say in paying salaries or wages, or the prices they charge, pretends inflation is 100 percent. So going forward, that is a disastrous situation.”

“Erdogan is already following election politics by raising citizens' purchasing power. To stop the bleeding, he practically indexed the value of bank accounts in domestic currency to the dollar. These are all aimed at creating positive momentum before he calls early elections.”

“The decisions have ... given the impression that the AK Party and Erdogan are excellent managers of the economy. For Erdogan, a 'last minute' success story emerges before every election. We see that this process will be presented as a political leader who beat the dollar and disrupted the game of foreign powers.”

“The current economic outlook was like a truck with no brakes. Erdogan's newly announced measures diverged significantly from the usual market practices. Turkey is going into a complicated process, they are no longer playing the game by the rules.”

“Orthodox theory recommends a tight monetary policy that will mitigate inflation by moderating domestic demand. In Turkey, by contrast, under the guidance of the presidency, the CBTR [Central Bank of Turkey] is pursuing a loose monetary and credit policy to boost economic growth, which Erdoğan needs desperately. He is concerned that higher interest rates will slow down the economy and fuel voter discontent in the run-up to the elections in 2023. He has therefore pushed the CBTR to cut rates in the hope that cheaper credit will stimulate the economy and improve his popular support.”

“The assumptions in this new 'model,' if we can call it that, are wrong. They are assuming lowering interest rates would lead to high exchange rates, and the Turkish lira would devalue, depreciate, and then Turkish goods and services will become cheaper in terms of our trade partners' currency. Erdogan is assuming that the subsequent boost to Turkish exports would eventually lead to the lira recovering its value. But that's a strange relationship. It does not work that way.”
