IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • Wang Wenbin
    Wang Wenbin “China is not the creator of or a party to the Ukraine Crisis. We have been on the side of peace and dialogue and committed to promoting peace talks. We actively support putting in place a balanced, effective and sustainable European security architecture. Our fair and objective position and constructive role have been widely recognized. 'Let the person who tied the bell on the tiger untie it,' to quote a Chinese saying. Our message to the US: stop shifting the blame on China; do not try to drive a wedge between China and Europe; and it is time to stop fueling the flame and start making real contribution to finding a political solution to the Ukraine crisis.” 5 hours ago
  • Korean Central News Agency
    Korean Central News Agency “On May 17, the North Korean Missile General Bureau conducted a test launch of a tactical ballistic missile equipped with a new navigation system of autonomous guidance. The test launch confirmed the accuracy and reliability of the system. The launch was carried out as part of the regular activities of the North Korean Missile General Bureau and subordinate defense research institutes for the active development of weapons technology.” 6 hours ago
  • Yang Moo-jin
    Yang Moo-jin “It is part of North Korea's propaganda approach to develop a voice in global affairs. Kim's statement comes amid Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping holding talks in Beijing, the West pressuring North Korea and Russia with sanctions and South Korea planning to stage Ulchi Freedom Shiled, a joint annual military drill with the U.S. in August. It may be true that North Korea is honing existing weapons to attack Seoul, but we cannot rule out the possibility of the country pulling weapons from its stocks and shipping them to Russia after further testing and deploying.” 6 hours ago
  • Park Won-gon
    Park Won-gon “Kim's [Kim Yo-jong syster of the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un] statement suggests that North Korea is concerned about international sanctions. I believe sanctions are still an effective tool. North Korea fears that if it admits its arms dealings with Russia, it may turn its European allies into enemies.” 6 hours ago
  • Kim Yo-jong
    Kim Yo-jong “We have no intention to export our military technical capabilities to any country or open them to the public. Our tactical weapons, including multiple rocket launchers and missiles, will be used to prevent Seoul from inventing any idle thinking.” 6 hours ago
  • Frank Kendall
    Frank Kendall “China has fielded a number of space capabilities designed to target our forces. And we're not going to be able operate in the Western Pacific successfully unless we can defeat those. China had tripled its network of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance satellites since 2018.” 6 hours ago
  • Ants Kiviselg
    Ants Kiviselg “The Russian Armed Forces are advancing on the recently opened Kharkiv front, but their pace is slowing down. This and the nature of their behaviour rather indicate a desire to create a buffer zone. Russian troops have attacked and destroyed important bridges in the area of Vovchansk, which creates a natural barrier between Ukrainian and Russian forces. This is more an indication of the intention of Russian forces to build a defensive line than to create a bridgehead for an advance on Kharkiv.” 15 hours ago
  • Vladimir Putin
    Vladimir Putin “Russia is ready and able to continuously power the Chinese economy, businesses, cities and towns with affordable and environmentally clean energy.” 15 hours ago
  • Alexey Muraviev
    Alexey Muraviev “There are limits to the two nations' ties, despite their insistence that it is limitless. The limits are that the two countries don't have a formal alliance agreement. To me, that's very clearly a sign that there are limitations to what seems to be a limitless relationship. Neither side is prepared to unconditionally commit to support each other on issues like Ukraine.” 16 hours ago

“I will try to help shift the focus of our economy from government-led growth to private sector-led growth to help the free-market economy work better. The government is focused on establishing infrastructure so that companies - regardless of their size - will spearhead the creation of jobs and make investments, which will eventually help the nation grow.”

“Over time, Putin was able to find workarounds. One of the workarounds was Putin's decision to pursue selective de-globalization. Even at its most open, Russia was closed off to foreign capital. Putin's other gamble was to forego growth of the Russian economy. By putting off investments and maintaining a tight monetary policy, Russia's balance sheet (including $630bn in foreign currency reserves) looked strong in the lead up to the Ukraine invasion, providing it with an early buffer for any upcoming economic pain.”

“Taiwan will use the fund to invest in the areas of semiconductors, lasers, biotechnologies and research in Lithuania. It will also send a team to assess Lithuania's aspirations to develop a semiconductor industry. An even larger fund for investments backed by Taiwan's central bank is in the works. Taiwan is committed to accelerate the process for Lithuania as Lithuania faces such unprecedented economic coercion in international trade history.”

“If the law came into force it could violate a treaty signed with the United States on economic and trade relations. One of the arguments considered during the analyses of this law was the issue of an international agreement that was concluded in 1990... this treaty speaks about the protection of investments. There is a clause which says that media-related investments may be excluded, but it concerns future investments.”

“Either we were going to give up on investments, production, growth and employment by keeping to the understanding that has prevailed in our country for years, or we were going to engage in a historic struggle in line with our priorities. As always, we preferred the struggle. We are determined to do the right thing for our nation. We encourage investment, production and exports. ... We protect employment. ... We care about growth.”

“These bills are about competitiveness versus complacency. They're about opportunity, versus decay. To support these investments is to support a rise in America - Americans moving. To oppose these investments is to be complicit in America's decline.”

“I think the possibility of a contraction in the third quarter is slim. The country's exports and investment still show a sturdy flow, and if a supplementary budget passes the National Assembly in August, its positive impact could soon be reflected in the economy.”

“There are many clear signs – in sustained increases of Chinese engagement in the field of academia, in the media, even in some civil society activities and it is clearly beginning to happen. It is going beyond the politics. We are seeing a multilevel strategy. In the past couple of years we have been focusing a bit too much on the big items of Chinese engagement – big investments such as highways, energy sector, infrastructure, but it is very clear now that Chinese are now much more active at a pretty granular level – engaging with individuals, with non-state institutions, etc.”

“I do not think we should distinguish between foreign investments from one country or another. I am very much in favor of Chinese investments, because they attract Europe’s attention for political reasons. Therefore, Europe feels the need of matching these investments.”

“There has been more than NT$1 trillion in investment in Taiwan since last year’s rise in US-China trade tensions. According to last month’s international assessments, Taiwan is the safest investment environment in Asia, and third in the world, after Switzerland and Norway.”
