  • Emmanuel Macron
    Emmanuel Macron “If the Russians were to break through the front lines, if there were a Ukrainian request [of sending ground troops to Ukraine], which is not the case today, we would legitimately have to ask ourselves this question.” 16 hours ago
  • David Cameron
    David Cameron “We will give three billion pounds every year for as long as is necessary. We've just really emptied all we can in terms of giving equipment. The aid package was the largest from the UK so far. Some of that (equipment) is actually arriving in Ukraine today, while I'm here. Ukraine has a right to use the weapons provided by London to strike targets inside Russia, and that it was up to Kyiv whether to do so. Ukraine has that right. Just as Russia is striking inside Ukraine, you can quite understand why Ukraine feels the need to make sure it's defending itself.” 16 hours ago

“Unless he begins testing them again, North Korea will never rise to the status of something that Joe Biden will use political capital to tackle. I do think at this point the North Koreans just threatened to test ICBMs [inter-continental ballistic missile] and nuclear weapons if they do not see any progress in their goals - getting Joe Biden's attention and the possibility of sanctions relief. The Biden administration will not respond to the specific threat beyond the "normal tough-sounding statements. However, if Kim [Kim Jong-un] does test an ICBM or nuclear weapon, that would violate Washington's unofficial red line that such tests mean more pressure on the DPRK.”
