“I share with a lot of people a surprise at the European position. Europe, that claims to be a model of civilisation, ignored the most televised genocide of modern times. What I like about the idea about a Palestinian-European Network is the need to ask a question - how come Europe behaves in an abysmal [way] … [it has] reached such a level of inhumanity, of disregard, of indifference. I wasn't prepared for that. wWhy people fly Ukrainian flags in solidarity with the war-torn European nation across the Danish capital but there are no Palestine flags visible. Let's face it, there's no genocide of Ukrainians, but there is of Palestinians.”

“It would be a substantial blow to the Ukrainians, and I'm not sure one that they can stop from happening. If they lose it [Pokrovsk], they lose that kind of fairly straightforward access to their defensive lines, and that makes it much harder to build up forces there and keep fighting.”

“Soon, those Ukrainians who want to fight will run out, in my opinion -- soon there will be no one left who wants to fight. We are ready, but the other side needs to be ready for both negotiations and compromises.”

“It's important to ensure long-term aid to Ukraine - it must be clear that we are prepared to enable support as long as it is needed. Air defense, artillery and ammunition are high on the list. My impression from talking to the president-elect [Donald Trump] is that good cooperation between Europe and the U.S. is possible. The principle is always: no decisions over Ukrainians' heads, and that of course means over those of the European states.”

“Unlike Ukraine, Russia can fire long-range missiles that can hit anywhere, and were likely using their operatives for intelligence gathering and weapons targeting, rather than assassinations. For the Ukrainians, carrying out assassinations, is a strategy of necessity because it's all they got. The Ukrainians see an opportunity here. They're trying to turn the heat up on the Russian elites to force Putin to make a deal. I think it's a flawed strategy. If they're not careful they'll create the opposite effect. They anger the Russians so much that they say we're not interested in negotiating.”

“We assess that Russia is taking 30,000 to 35,000 casualties per month, that is killed and wounded in order to make these territorial gains that are very small. The Ukrainians are using technology to help offset their relative shortage of manpower and their relative shortage of equipment. What we are seeing is a profound change in the character of war.”

“We've reached the breaking point. Now it's the moment when member states have to decide: we go and we support. The Russians are pushing a lot. The Russians are not waiting for negotiations. Russia continues pushing slowly but continuously. The situation on the frontline is not good (but) the Ukrainians resist. The Russian superiority continues. They have been provided by North Korea much more than we have been able to provide to the Ukrainians. I have to recognise: is Russia politically isolated? Certainly not. How many people went to Kazan? I can't frankly say that Russia is becoming isolated in the international community.”

“By doing this [stepping up talk of using nuclear weapons] Putin and his regime are first of all acknowledging that they are conventionally weaker than the NATO nations as a whole. Acknowledging that they are experiencing serious problems and will experience more should the Ukrainians continue with those strikes.”

“If Trump can end the Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours, I'll be the first one voting for his Nobel Peace Prize. What I hope he does, and I think he will, is put pressure on both sides to get to the negotiating table, and it comes out kind of like the end of the Korean War, which is to say, Putin, unfortunately, but in a real world, will end up with about 20 percent of Ukraine, the chunk that he currently holds, but the rest of Ukraine, the 80 percent, all those resources, vast majority of the population, they stay democratic, free. Ukraine will also get a path to NATO, probably three to five years, realistically. It's not the worst outcome in the world. Keep in mind that a negotiated settlement is not something the U.S. can impose-but for the Ukrainians and Russians to agree upon. Negotiating a ceasefire and eventual settlement will take months. Ukraine's entry into NATO could be accomplished over a couple years.”

“With Trump saying during his campaign that he was going to move forward [and] have a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin and end the war in Ukraine, people here are trying to figure out exactly what the Americans mean by 'a deal with Putin'. Is it going to be forcing the Ukrainians to make more and more concessions, something which was brushed aside by the Ukrainians, by the Germans and by the French in particular? Generally speaking, the Europeans are concerned about what happens next.”

“More and more we hear in Washington and Europe that Kyiv is unreasonable to expect to regain 100 percent of its territory, and the Ukrainians are beginning to get their heads around it. There is a world where they concede Russian occupation for some time. But there would need to be demilitarization of the front line and then Ukrainians want super security guarantees to avoid a Russian resurgence of the war in five years.”

“Indications (are) that there's already a small number (of North Korean troops) that are actually in the Kursk Oblast, with a couple thousand more that are either almost there or due to arrive imminently. The rest at this time, of course, (are) training out in the east, but (we) fully expect that they'll move in that direction at some point. We are concerned that they do intend to employ these forces in combat against Ukrainians or at least support combat operations against the Ukrainians in the Kursk region. As of right now, it remains to be seen exactly how the Russians and the North Koreans will employ these forces.”

“Russian victory in this war would be a consecration for the law of the strongest and would push the international order toward chaos. That is why our exchanges should allow us to make progress on President Zelenskiy's victory plan and rally the greatest number possible of countries around it. Ukrainians are not only fighting for their country's territorial integrity, but also holding a front line that separates Europe from Vladimir Putin's Russia, that separates freedom from oppression.”

“Some elements of Russian units had managed to advance relatively far into the Ukrainian rear, which caused issues and losses for Ukraine. The Russian counterattacks are constantly reducing the political significance of the Ukrainian-controlled area in Kursk. If the current trend continues, the Ukrainians may need to reconsider their presence in the area and the future of the whole operation. It's clear that the Ukrainian lines don't seem to hold very well. Ukraine's army does not appear yet to have built any large-scale fortifications in the area, complicating its defense. The western flank currently under Russian attack consists of relatively open terrain, with few urban centers that the Ukrainians can use to entrench themselves in.”

“The USSR said that it would never strike first … Now Putin says that he will strike whenever he wants. He obviously doesn't have that moral barrier to using nuclear weapons, that understanding that it's a step toward destroying the planet that both [Soviet leaders Nikita] Khrushchev and [Leonid] Brezhnev had. He certainly doesn't care how many Ukrainians will die, and how many of them and his own soldiers will die from radiation sickness later, either.”

“On the sidelines of the [Ambrosetti] Forum in Italy, I met with a delegation of the US Congress. We talked, in particular, about the victory plan for Ukraine - about some of its details, and we will present all the steps to US President Biden and both presidential candidates, Trump and Harris, in full. Our main focus now, at the beginning of the fall, is to strengthen the positions of Ukraine and Ukrainians as much as possible, protect our cities and villages from Russian terror, and, of course, provide more capabilities for our warriors on the frontlines.”

“The Ukrainians have managed to slow down the Russian advance on the Pokrovsk front. While in previous months, the Russians advanced seven to eight kilometres per month on this front, we now see that in recent days, the pace of their advance has significantly slowed. Ukraine has also deployed additional units to the Pokrovsk front. At this point, I can say that the Russian Federation has not achieved this goal - as a result of these attacks [strikes on a military academy and a hospital in Poltava], the will to defend among Ukrainians remains strong and continues to grow. These attacks also keep the support for Ukraine from its allies high.”
