  • Brad Setser
    Brad Setser “Tariffs are currently 7.5 percent on electric vehicle battery packs but 25 percent on the components of those packs. The lower rate should be raised. China had long steered its subsidies to companies that manufacture and source their products in China - and sometimes had required those companies to be Chinese-owned. In order to build up industrial sectors where China has a first-mover advantage and now a cost advantage you need to have an insulated market - and to use some of the tools that China has already used.” 2 hours ago

    Lael Brainard “China's policy-driven overcapacity poses a serious risk to the future of the American steel and aluminum industry. China cannot export its way to recovery. China is simply too big to play by its own rules.” 2 hours ago
  • Ruth Harris
    Ruth Harris “War is a physical human endeavour and you have a force that is utterly exhausted, not slightly fatigued. It's a heavily attritional war. It's messy, it's bloody, there is nothing glorious about this. The glide bombs that are currently used are hugely devastating. They're cheap to make. They are pretty damn accurate and they can be adapted really quickly. They are fast and [the Russians] have a lot of them. This is a war of mass cost and pace. That's the operational factor on the ground.” 6 hours ago
  • Ali Vaez
    Ali Vaez “We are in a situation where basically everybody can claim victory. Iran can say that it took revenge, Israel can say it defeated the Iranian attack and the United States can say it successfully deterred Iran and defended Israel. If we get into another round of tit for tat, it can easily spiral out of control, not just for Iran and Israel, but for the rest of the region and the entire world.” 7 hours ago
  • Lloyd Austin
    Lloyd Austin “Whether it's munitions, whether it's vehicles, whether it's platforms, I'll just tell you that Ukraine right now is facing some dire battlefield conditions. We're already seeing things on the battlefield begin to shift a bit in Russia's favour. We are seeing them make incremental gains. We're seeing the Ukrainians be challenged in terms of holding the line.” 18 hours ago

“[Hungary and Serbia] are the leading recipients of Chinese foreign direct investment in 2023 in Central and Eastern Europe. China is building and partly financing a Budapest-Belgrade high-speed railway. Chinese electrical vehicle battery manufacturer CATL is investing $7.6bn in the Hungarian city of Debrecen for the construction of a battery plant. It would be Europe's largest electrical battery facility. It would be CATL's single-largest overseas investment and its second facility in Hungary.”

“Before his ouster, Djukanovic had warned that Serbia is seeking to establish a 'Serbian world' where it would exert control over all Balkan states with historic links to Serbia, including Montenegro. With Serb nationalists celebrating Djukanovic's ousting across the Balkans and Milatović declaring his ambition to strengthen ties with Serbia, it appears, at least for now, that the change in leadership in Montenegro will help Belgrade's ambitions for regional hegemony. It was telling that Milatović's supporters celebrated his victory by waving Serbian flags.”

“It is precisely Serbia, influenced by Russia, that has raised a state of military readiness and that is ordering the erection of new barricades, in order to justify and protect the criminal groups that terrorize.”

“Our worry [is] that removal of these barricades cannot exclude casualties. And that's why we want to be as careful as possible to make sure that there will be no destabilisation and relative peace and security will be in place. However, we cannot allow this violation of lawfulness and constitutionality for ever. So, yeah, this must end, sooner the better. The EU-US all agree that barricades should be removed. But they are also worried how this might be used and abused by Belgrade. I think that the worry of our western partners and friends is the links of Belgrade with Moscow. We do not know how they could be rendered operative in case of rising of tensions, towards escalation in the north. I think that their major concern is precisely this: now that Russia got severely wounded in Ukraine after its invasion and aggression, they have interest in spillover. They have interest in outsourcing their war-mongering drive to the Balkans where they have a client who's in Belgrade.”

“The intensity of hybrid attacks by Serbia and Russia against Kosovo has significantly increased… There was a Russia- Serbia plan to burn the Jarinje crossing point yesterday but it was prevented by Kosovo institutions in cooperation with international partners, particularly the Americans.”

“We have a deal. Under the EU-facilitated Dialogue, Serbia agreed to abolish entry/exit documents for Kosovo ID holders and Kosovo agreed to not introduce them for Serbian ID holders. Kosovo Serbs, as well as all other citizens, will be able to travel freely between Kosovo & Serbia using their ID cards. The EU just received guarantees from PM [Albin] Kurti to this end.”

“The countries around Serbia have closed the channel of communication by refusing to authorise the overflight of the plane of Sergey Lavrov who was headed to Serbia. The Russian delegation should have arrived in Belgrade for talks. But the EU and NATO member countries closed their airspace.”

“Spoke to Albin Kurti and Aleksandar Vucic yesterday regarding the collection of votes in Kosovo for Sunday's constitutional referendum in Serbia. Collection of votes in the past has taken place through facilitation of the OSCE. People should be able to exercise their right to vote.”

“A referendum in the sovereign territory of another state is not a practice accepted by any democratic country. Serbs in Kosovo with dual citizenship can vote in Serbia's referendum by mail or in the liaison office in Pristina.”

“Open Balkan is our way forward on the road to the European Union. We agreed that our three countries would not be held hostage to the failure of the European Union to unblock our European integration process. That process can be stopped in Brussels, but the Europeanization and implementation of European values in Northern Macedonia, Serbia, and Albania have no reason to be on hold.”

“Kosovo leadership should undertake the dialogue with Kosovo Serbs in order to counterbalance the leverage Belgrade has over them. They need to be shown that they are valuable and involved in the decision-making. Nobody worked on building the national consensus prior to reaching previous agreements. I advocate for more openness. We are witnessing a leadership crisis. We are shout out for this process, we don't own this process and feel that this Dialogue is imposed. In Serbia, the process has been captured by one person.”

“The Kosovo Boxing Federation has been a full member of AIBA since November 2014 and is expected to attend the AIBA Men's World Boxing Championships. AIBA expects that the Kosovo Boxing Federation's delegation will be treated no differently than the delegation of any other AIBA member.”

“Germany, as one of the strongest countries of the EU, will continue to be an actor in the process of the Western Balkans' accession to the Union and that it will contribute to the enlargement. This is particularly true for Serbia. Regardless of the relationship of trust between Angela Merkel and Aleksandar Vučić, it is in Germany's interest to be supported and surrounded by friends in the EU member states. Germany has an interest for Serbia to make progress on this path through the opening of funds, but it is clear that criteria such as democracy and the rule of law will be met.”

“There is no sincere wish for dialogue either in Kosovo or in Serbia and there isn't the necessary energy from the West to provide the impetus in moving forward the EU integration process. In the current situation, the ongoing EU-facilitated dialogue between Pristina and Belgrade to normalise relations is 'clinically dead'. For the dialogue to be revived, we maybe should be reminded why it is needed. The current status quo is quite unsustainable and the security crisis could escalate to the extent that the dialogue needs reanimation. Let us not forget too that both countries are in an election mood and the leaders have domestic political motives.”

“Serbia and Kosovo need to unconditionally de-escalate the situation on the ground. Any further provocations, unilateral or uncoordinated actions are unacceptable. The EU-facilitated Dialogue remains the only platform to address & resolve all open issues.”
