  • Craig Kennedy
    Craig Kennedy “Moscow's funding challenges only increase from here, especially if coalition countries enforce more fully the powerful energy sanction tools at their disposal. Through continued resolve and a clear understanding of Moscow's vulnerabilities, Ukraine and its allies can realise the full potential of their negotiating leverage, avoid making unnecessary concessions, and reduce the longer-term risks posed by Russian revanchism.” 42 minutes ago
  • Justin Trudeau
    Justin Trudeau “The 51st state, that's not going to happen. But people are talking about that, as opposed to talking about what impact 25% tariffs (has) on steel and aluminum coming into the United States. No American wants to pay 25% more for electricity or oil and gas coming in from Canada. That's something I think people need to pay a little more attention to.” 47 minutes ago
  • Stephen J. Rapp
    Stephen J. Rapp “Any prosecution has to be a good process, otherwise it'll look like score-settling. And that can play a key role in reconciling a society and defusing efforts to settle scores, for instance, against the children of parents who committed these crimes.” 9 hours ago
  • Kaja Kallas
    Kaja Kallas “We will be looking at how to ease sanctions. But this must follow tangible progress in a political transition that reflects Syria in all its diversity.” 14 hours ago
  • Hossein Salami
    Hossein Salami “Iran's military is not as weak as some believed. We know that such judgments are the dreams of the enemy, not realities on the ground. Be careful, don't make any strategic mistakes or miscalculations.” 14 hours ago
  • Keith Kellog
    Keith Kellog “These pressures are not just kinetic, just not military force, but they must be economic and diplomatic as well. There are now opportunities to change Iran for the better. We must exploit the weakness we now see. The hope is there, so must too be the action.” 14 hours ago
  • Annalena Baerbock
    Annalena Baerbock “Sanctions against Assad's henchmen who committed serious crimes during the civil war must remain in place. Germany would provide another €50m for food, emergency shelter and medical care. Syrians now need a quick dividend from the transition of power.” 14 hours ago

“The debate on Greenlandic independence and the latest announcements from the US show us the large interest in Greenland. Events which set in motion a lot of thoughts and feelings with many in Greenland and Denmark. The US is our closest ally, and we will do everything to continue a strong cooperation.”

“Greenland, as an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, enjoys sovereignty under the Rigsfællesskabet framework, and any military intervention would constitute a direct violation of its rights as well as Denmark's. Denmark and the EU are navigating a challenging balancing act: they must underscore the seriousness of being threatened on such a fundamental principle as sovereignty while striving to maintain a constructive relationship with the United States, a key transatlantic partner. This situation requires strategic diplomacy, combining firm boundaries with efforts to de-escalate tensions and safeguard broader cooperative interests. If Trump's threat were to materialise, it could represent a fundamental rupture in the relationship between the US and EU as well as the collapse of the current international order, including NATO and the liberal world order. This underscores Europe's vested interest in doing everything possible to downplay the likelihood of this ever becoming a reality, preserving stability and ensuring that speculative threats remain just that - speculative.”

“Danish Realm [which includes Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands] is open to a dialogue with the Americans on how we can cooperate, possibly even more closely than we already do, to ensure that American ambitions are fulfilled. In conjunction with the melting of the Arctic and new shipping lanes opening up, we are unfortunately also seeing an increase in great power rivalry. We see a Russia that is arming itself. We see a China that is also starting to take an interest. I try to deal with the realities, and I think we should all do ourselves a favour by getting our heart rate down a bit.”

“The principle of inviolability of borders applies to every country, no matter how powerful. Borders must not be moved by force. This principle applies to every country, whether in the East or the West. In talks with our European partners, there is an uneasiness regarding recent statements from the US. It is clear: We must stand together.”

“Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders. On one hand, I am pleased regarding the rise in American interest in Greenland. But of course it is important that it takes place in a way where it is the Greenlanders' decision, what their future holds.”

“The prime minister stepping down means it will be hard for him to carry any meaningful mandate in negotiating with the U.S., and it doesn't signal any unity within Canada. It's not a great time for Canada to be in this situation.”

“The DPRK has already received Russian military equipment and training. Now we have reasons to believe that Moscow intends to share advanced space and satellite technology with Pyongyang. Putin may be close to reversing its decades-long policy by accepting the DPRK's nuclear weapon programs.”

“During US president-elect Donald Trump's first term, we had developed what we believe was a pretty effective model of deterrence against adversaries who wanted to undermine the set of rules and values that the people of Taiwan and the people of the US hold dear. Succeeding in continuing to build this model will not solely rest at the feet of president Trump and his team, but it will be shared with Taiwan; you will be crucial in this effort. Free nations, especially those in this Indo-Pacific area, must send an unambiguous message to Beijing that Taiwan is free and independent and is going to stay that way... It is imperative that we speak with that clarity. Chinese President Xi Jinping will not determine the future of Asia or of Taiwan, we will. We'll do it alongside Japan, Australia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia and India.”

“If you look at the history of President Trump, he negotiates very aggressively and he likes to win, but in the end, he doesn't appear to have a problem if his counterparty also wins. And so I think that we can get a great deal that will make both countries safer, richer, and stronger. But Trump should also be aware that Canada currently sells its oil and gas to the U.S. at enormous discounts. Yes, it is a ripoff - Canada is ripping itself off.”

“Syria today is open to all and ready to engage with all parties, although certainly the development of this administration would likely depend on the US side. We're ready to enhance this relation as long as the new US administration shows willingness.”

“The SDF, until now, is not collapsing. The reason for that is that 60% of the SDF are Arabs. So, it is a Kurdish-led force, but it's maintaining other components like Christians and Arabs. This coalition was created basically to fight ISIS with US support. So, it's a multiethnic coalition. Also, if you look at the administration that has been built, it is not like a Kurdish administration; there are Arabs in it. It's reflective of the demography of Northeast Syria, but we have to see in the future negotiations how it can work-if this administration can stay in power in those areas or if they're going to find a different method. It is also possible, for instance, that the Kurdish-led administration would give the new authorities in Damascus control over things like the airport and oil and gas resources. But locally, they can still have some form of local security forces under their control. However, we have to see how it's going to work-if this new administration will accept some form of decentralization, because not only Kurds demand this but also Christians and Druze.”

“Christmas ought to be the time of peace, and yet Ukraine became a target of another Russian attack. Launching large-scale missile and drone attacks on the day of the Lord's birth is wrong. The world is closely watching actions on both sides. The U.S. is more resolved than ever to bring peace to the region.”

“It is likely to be sparked [Danish government boost in defence spending] by the renewed Trump focus on the need for air and maritime control around Greenland and the internal developments in Greenland where some are voicing a will to look towards the US - a new international airport in Nuuk was just inaugurated. I think Trump is smart… he gets Denmark to prioritise its Arctic military capabilities by raising this voice, without having to take over a very un-American welfare system.”

“We do assess that North Korean soldiers have engaged in combat in Kursk...we do have indications that they have suffered casualties, both killed and wounded.”

“For the long term, the Anglo-Saxons have set themselves a specific political goal to comprehensively reformat the 'island identity.' This would make it possible to erode the principle of one China, declare Taiwan's independence under the Kosovo scenario and undermine the status quo in the Taiwan Strait. Next up would be to form an outpost in East Asia that would be formally dependent on the US. The plan is quite in line with Washington's aspirations to bring the Asia-Pacific region into NATO's orbit and pit states against each other. In order to achieve these goals, the tools that are employed include manipulative language separation, the cultivation of local nationalism and the promotion of pro-Western values and ideas that are alien to Chinese traditional national culture.”

“Beijing will play it safe when there's no protocol or precedent for a Chinese leader to attend the inauguration of a U.S. president. I don't think the Chinese will take the risk. There could be risks in the guest list, for example. Taiwan's top diplomat in the U.S. attended the swearing-in of President Joe Biden in 2021. Should Trump slap tariffs as high as 60% on Chinese goods upon taking office as he's threatened, Xi would look like a fool if he had chosen to attend, and that's unacceptable to Beijing.”
