“Without a comprehensive political agreement involving Iran, the ceasefire risks being a temporary measure. Even under these circumstances, the ceasefire would likely buy several years of relative peace.”

“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.”

“And some of those present here strongly advocated that Ukraine should make 'concessions' to Putin. This is unacceptable for Ukraine and suicidal for the entire Europe. So what's next? Should Europe hope for Kim Jong Un's sympathy that he will also leave Europe alone? No strong leader who has helped build a united, strong and peaceful Europe could even imagine that. At the same time the concept of peace through strength has repeatedly proved its realism and effectiveness. Now it [peace through strength] is needed once again. And there should be no illusions that you can buy a just peace by showing weakness or surrendering any European positions or the positions of any European country.”

“This is an underreported conflict situation, and we must pay more attention. Millions are suffering, and there is now the serious possibility of the conflict igniting regional instability from the Sahel to the Horn of Africa to the Red Sea. There is simply no other way to put it. Hunger, disease and sexual violence are rampant. For the people of Sudan, this is a living nightmare. We will not allow Sudan to be forgotten. Its people need peace, now.”

“The pact is a product of very patient and very persevering diplomacy and that it will resume military patrolling the way it was before the 2020 clash. Hopefully, we will be able to come back to peace and tranquillity. And that was our major concern because we always said that if you disturb peace and tranquillity, how do you expect the rest of the relationship to go forward.”

“This is exactly what we need - the restoration of a just peace for Ukraine, and this is a victory for us, and this is what we are working for. Today I will present Olaf [German Chancellor Olaf Scholz] with a plan on how, in our opinion, to force Russia to peace, that is, how to end this war, I would like to say, no later than 2025. That is, this plan is not to replace our peace initiative, but to strengthen Ukraine's position for the sake of getting closer to peace.”

“Every air strike, every missile launch, every rocket fired pushes peace further out of reach and makes the suffering even worse for the millions of civilians caught in the middle. That is why we cannot and will not give up on our calls for an immediate ceasefire both in Gaza and Lebanon, the immediate and unconditional release of hostages, and immediate lifesaving aid to all those who desperately need it.”

“Everyone in the world who talks about this war should pay attention to where Russia is hitting. They are fighting hospitals, civilian objects, and people's lives. Only force can force Russia to peace. Peace through force is the only right way.”

“I have consistently called for maximum restraint by all. It is increasingly clear, however, that restraint alone is insufficient at this extremely sensitive time. I urge all to vigorously work towards regional de-escalation in the interest of long-term peace and stability for all. The only way to achieve that is by advancing comprehensive diplomatic action.”

“I don't think that it [the killing of Ismail Haniyeh] will in any way influence the chances for peace, because peace is not on the agenda altogether at this point. It may create some more difficulties in the process of reaching an agreement about the hostages. The fact that the Israeli government did not officially take responsibility for his killing will influence the extremity of the Iranian reaction. I think it will be somewhat more moderate than under different circumstances.”

“I emphasised the significance of a just peace, not just any peace. And my Chinese counterpart himself added, 'fair and long'. This is critical because we are usually the ones who insist that peace be durable - long-term and just. This is significant; we have received a clear indication that China is not looking for interim fixes or ceasefires but rather for a long-term, strategic solution to the problem of Russia's war against Ukraine. This is also an extremely positive indicator.”
