  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “There were 11 missiles flying. We destroyed the first seven, and [the remaining] four destroyed Trypillia [village in which the Trypilska thermal power plant is situated]. Why? Because there were zero missiles. We ran out of missiles to defend Trypillia.” 3 hours ago
  • Peter Ricketts
    Peter Ricketts “Netanyahu must have calculated when he hit the Iranian Consulate in Damascus that the Iranians would retaliate, and that this would swing the Americans and their Western allies behind Israel. And that's worked, remarkably well. It's all gain for Netanyahu if he has the wisdom to take the win, or at least to retaliate in a limited way.” 6 hours ago
  • Daniel Levy
    Daniel Levy “There's been this united public response defending Israel on Iran, with strong private messaging to Israel, 'Don't you dare'. While on Gaza, there's a lot of public hand-wringing but a lack of will to be tough in private. Gaza doesn't directly pull the United States into a war. So, they still believe they can tiptoe through the raindrops.” 6 hours ago
  • Vali R. Nasr
    Vali R. Nasr “If every time Israel decides to punish Iran, it creates a massive tumult in Washington and London, these countries are going to pressure Israel. There's going to be a major international effort to build cordons around Israel's behavior toward Iran.” 6 hours ago
  • Annalena Baerbock
    Annalena Baerbock “Iran is playing with the fate of all people in the Middle East and has led an entire region to the brink of the abyss. The aim now is to stop Iran without further escalation. Iran's plan to sow further violence must not work. Israel has our full solidarity and can rely on us. We also do not forget the many dozens of Israeli hostages who are still being held captive in Hamas tunnels. They must finally be released.” 6 hours ago

“The United Kingdom… announced not only the supply of tanks to Ukraine but also shells with depleted uranium. If this happens, Russia will be forced to react. If all this happens, Russia will have to respond accordingly, given that the West collectively is already beginning to use weapons with a nuclear component.”

“I am against sending any lethal arms there. It prolongs the war. What is the goal? Disintegration of Russia, change of the government? There is also talk of tearing Russia apart. This is mad. It is clear that Crimea will never again be part of Ukraine. What is the goal of this war? A war against a nuclear power that is at war in another country? Is there a conventional way to defeat such a country? Who pays the price? Europe. America pays the least,” he said. “A year has passed and we are only now talking about tanks. Not a single American tank will go to Ukraine in a year. Only German tanks will be sent there.”

“The fact we've only just made a decision [on sending tanks] and already the next debate [fighter jets] is firing up in Germany - that just seems frivolous and undermines people's trust in government decisions. I can only advise against entering a bidding war over weapons systems.”

“The thing to remember here is the real value that the main battle tank Leopard 2 possesses is that it is a heavier and faster tank than many of the tanks the Russian army has in Ukraine. It's also the case that very many different European Union countries have certain forms of the Leopard 2 tanks. The principle here is clear: There are many of them in the EU but also in NATO European countries.”

“It is obvious that Washington is purposefully trying to inflict a strategic defeat on us. If the United States decides to supply tanks, then justifying such a step with arguments about 'defensive weapons' will definitely not work. This would be another blatant provocation against the Russian Federation.”

“To the Germans: Send tanks to Ukraine because they need them. It is in your own national interest that [Russian President Vladimir] Putin loses in Ukraine. To the [US President Joe] Biden Administration: Send American tanks so that others will follow our lead.”

“From Washington to London, from Paris to Warsaw, you hear one thing: Ukraine needs tanks. Tanks are the key to ending the war properly. It is time to stop trembling before Putin and take the final step.”

“We should give all necessary support to Ukraine especially because Russia is preparing in February and March an offensive in Ukraine and Ukraine should have all necessary weapons and support to resist this offensive. Therefore all tanks should be given to Ukraine when possible.”

“If you (Russians) decide to massively attack another country, massively kill everyone there, massively crush peaceful people with tanks, and use warehouses in your regions to enable the killings, then sooner or later the debts will have to be repaid. It is not possible to sit out the Russian invasion. And therefore, the disarmament of the Belgorod and Voronezh killers' warehouses is an absolutely natural process. Karma is a cruel thing.”

“At this stage, the weapons won't bring about a significant change to the situation. Ukrainian forces have no effective control of the air, so even if the US has agreed to provide heavy weapons like howitzers and tanks, any mass transportation of those weapons into the country by railway or trucks could be spotted and destroyed by Russian warplanes or missiles.”

“They [the Ukrainians] need long-range fires. You've heard them express the need for tanks and we are doing everything that we can to get them the types of support, the types of artillery and munitions that will be effective in this stage of the fight. We want to see Ukraine remain a sovereign country, a democratic country, able to protect its sovereign territory. We want to see Russia weakened to the degree that it can't do the kinds of things that it has done in invading Ukraine. So it has already lost a lot of military capability and a lot of, a lot of its troops, quite frankly.”

“Mariupol has been destroyed. There are tens of thousands of dead, but even despite this, the Russians are not stopping their offensive. We need air defence systems, aircraft, tanks and other armoured vehicles, artillery systems and ammunition. And you have something that can be indispensable for us. You have it … It is necessary to help.”

“This is a defeat [for the Ukrainian army]. It is a big marker point in this conflict. Tanks are rolling to and from the central area, [the Russian] troops are in foot patrols. Kherson is a city with a lot of resources and fighters. It was a bloody battle to the end.”

“Although North Korea has a bigger military on paper, with more aircraft, tanks, artillery and warships than South Korea, most of these weapons are outdated and would be no match for Seoul's more modern armed forces. It is the main reason why Pyongyang wants to build up its nuclear force as a cost-effective way to reduce spending on large conventional forces. This build-up is setting the stage for a classic action-reaction dynamic where breaking the cycle of rearmament on both sides will be difficult.”
