IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • 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.” 15 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.” 16 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.” 16 hours ago

“Haftar needs Wagner. Furthermore, while he's hosting them in Libya, [Wagner] can use its position to prop up operations in Syria, Sudan and elsewhere. It's a network. It's not just military support, either. They're using their position in eastern Libya to transport [illegal narcotic] Captagon from Syria, shift gold to evade sanctions, as well as help traffic migrants from southern Africa and as far away as Bangladesh. Libya is a hugely profitable area for Wagner.”

“They [Wagner] have protected the elites in Bangui, fought back Bozizé's rebels and they haven't lost a lot of people doing that. But they are not getting a good return on investment other than some individuals profiting from access to resources they got in return for their services. Beyond irritating the West, Russia has no strategic interest in the CAR per se. They have never been historically interested in the country. But the CAR was supposed to be part of what you may call a 'corridor of influence' across this part of the African continent, starting in Sudan and then going on into Congo. Ukraine puts a stop to that. They are overstretched and, of course, Russia is not China. They don't have deep pockets. So as far as building that corridor of influence is concerned, it's back to the drawing board.”

“Ethiopia's main interest is to bring light to 60 percent of the population who is suffering in darkness, to save the labour of our mothers who are carrying wood on their backs in order to get energy. As you can see, this water will generate energy while flowing as it previously flowed to Sudan and Egypt, unlike the rumours that say the Ethiopian people and government are damming the water to starve Egypt and Sudan.”

“The US is deeply alarmed at reports of a military take-over of the transitional government. This would contravene the Constitutional Declaration and the democratic aspirations of the Sudanese people and is utterly unacceptable. As we have said repeatedly, any changes to the transitional government by force puts at risk US assistance.”

“You got two downstream countries that are worried about safety until 10 years down the line. They are worried about predictability 10 years down the line. They are worried about the potential of water wars, and nobody's giving them any assurance until today. And they are worried about the ramification of this [dam] are going to be in terms of setting precedents for other upstream development.”

“This is indeed a milestone and Ethiopians are excited about this. This is a project of national pride. But of course the downstream countries, Sudan and Egypt, are very concerned about what this could do to other water flows to their own countries along the Nile.”

“The conflict in the Tigray region has already claimed hundreds of civilian lives, left many more injured, and forced thousands into refugee camps in neighbouring Sudan. Commanders in both the Ethiopian national army and the TPLF [Tigray People’s Liberation Front] must take active steps to protect civilians during any fighting, including by taking all feasible precautions to avoid harm to civilians and civilian infrastructure and avoiding locating military facilities and soldiers near concentrations of civilians.”

“The numbers are increasing rapidly. There are lots of children and women. They are arriving very tired and exhausted. They are hungry and thirsty since they have walked long dispenses on rugged terrain.”

“It is absolutely fundamental to discard the polarised lenses and partisanship when discussing the UAE announcement of open ties with Israel. The problem is deeper than just the UAE. A holistic approach to the topic reveals that this latest development is the culmination of decades of Gulf-wide taboo breaking from Qatar embracing Israel and Al-Udeid, Bahrain hosting Kushner to present his Deal of the Century, Oman receiving Netanyahu to threaten UAE, and UAE brokering meetings for Netanyahu with Sudan's AbdulFattah Burhan. Otherwise they are bound by geostrategic realities to cooperate with their larger neighbours whether they be Saudi Arabia, Egypt, or Iran.”

“The completion of the first round of filling is a historic moment that showcases Ethiopians' commitment to the renaissance of our country. The fact that we reached this milestone by our own efforts when no one else believed in our capabilities to accomplish such initiatives makes the moment even more historic. We conducted the filling of the dam without causing harm to anyone.”
