  • Vladimir Putin
    Vladimir Putin “In a broader sense, we are working to contribute to the development and prosperity of Russia and China by enhancing equal, mutually beneficial economic and humanitarian cooperation, and strengthen foreign policy coordination in the interests of building a just multipolar world order. All this is the key to a future success of our comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for the new era. The partnership between Russia and China is always based on equality and mutual trust, mutual respect for sovereignty, and consideration of each other's interests. President Xi Jinping, a wise and visionary leader, plays a special and prominent role in the development of bilateral relations. We first met back in March 2010, and we have been seeing and calling each other regularly ever since. President Xi maintains a respectful, friendly, open and at the same time business-like style of communication.” 3 hours ago
  • Yair Lapid
    Yair Lapid “The government has lost control. Soldiers are being killed every day in Gaza and they fight among themselves on television. The cabinet is disassembled and non-functional. Ministers protest in front of cabinet meetings. One cabinet sends humanitarian aid convoys and the other burns them. Relations with the US are collapsing, the middle class is collapsing, they have lost the north. We can't go on like this. We will not win with this government.” 4 hours ago
  • Vladimir Putin
    Vladimir Putin “We have said many times that whoever is quicker to master the newest means of armed combat wins. We have to be one step ahead. We have everything we need for this, and much has been done, but we need to double and triple our efforts in this area.” 9 hours ago
  • Alena Kudzko
    Alena Kudzko “That is definitely not something that anybody in Slovakia expected. The country has been polarised over the past year amid heightened political tension, especially in the run-up to the elections. But nobody … called for violence in the country. Quite the opposite, everybody right now is trying to unite and send a coherent message, that political violence is not something that we support.” 9 hours ago

“You're looking at a very volatile environment security-wise. There are all kinds of alarm bells … for commercial airlines that I imagine would not be comfortable getting into the airport. If the Taliban’s looking to get recognition and legitimacy from governments around the world, then it has to have a working, safe, trusted airport”

“You do get a sense this Saturday evening here in Kabul that this long, drawn-out, often chaotic and traumatic evacuation process [is] finally in the end game.”

“The situation on the ground continues to be extremely dangerous, and the threat of terrorist attacks on the airport remains high. Our commanders informed me that an attack is highly likely in the next 24-36 hours. I directed them to take every possible measure to prioritize force protection, and ensured that they have all the authorities, resources and plans to protect our men and women on the ground. They assured me that they did, and that they could take these measures while completing the mission and safely retrograding our personnel.”

“The attacks we saw this afternoon [blasts at Kabul airport] … have made clear that an extension of the operation in Kabul was not possible. The security situation on the ground, and also the Taliban's decision not to tolerate an extension beyond Aug. 31, made it impossible.”

“We want good relations with Turkey, the Turkish government and the Muslim people of the Turkish nation. As for Turkish forces stationed in Afghanistan, we are not in need of them in our country and once the evacuation is completed we will secure the airport [of Kabul] by ourselves.”

“There will be no extension for the ongoing evacuation. We want them to evacuate their citizens, they have planes and the Kabul airport control is with them now, the U.S. should withdraw all its troops, people or contractors before the deadline. We are not in favor of Afghans to leave, we are not happy with departure of Afghans. The crowds have not been cleared outside the airport. We want the Americans to bring changes in their policy of encouraging Afghans to leave. We ask them to stop this process [stop taking Afghan experts out of Afghanistan].”

“A functioning state, a functioning economy, a government that has some semblance of a relationship with the rest of the world, needs a functioning commercial airport. We are in discussions with the Taliban on this very front. They have indicated to us in no uncertain terms that they seek to have a functioning commercial airport.”

“All of our allies had eyes and boots on the ground this week at Kabul's airport. Canada did not. It closed its embassy and withdrew all its diplomats and military by jet to Ottawa just as the Taliban was rolling into town. The government left no one behind to talk to the Taliban, or our allies, as they organized and negotiated the rescue of thousands.”

“Planes will be ready and waiting at the Kabul airport but they're unlikely to fill up entirely. But unless the Taliban shift their posture significantly - which is something the international community and Canada are working on - it's going to be very difficult to get many people out. We will get some certainly, but to get many people out, as many as we want, is going to be almost impossible in the coming weeks. The difficulty right now is personnel and the safety of getting them out," said Trudeau. It's been far fewer flights than people had hoped. It is an extremely difficult situation, but I can assure you that I and our ministers and our government is working extremely hard to ease all the barriers, whether they be around paperwork or bureaucracy, to make sure people are getting out of there as quickly as possible and to safety.”
