Terror group PKK leader Murat Karayılan on the nearing collapse of their forces in Syria:

It will be a black mark on the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and other international coalition states.

You told this people that you were their allies. So why are you now leaving your allies to face such an attack?

What you are doing is hypocrisy. We will forget this hypocrisy.

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov:

West's world order rules don't exist anymore; it is the law of the strongest.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan received Tom Barrack, the U.S. Ambassador to Ankara and Special Envoy for Syria.

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov:

If you read the statements from Kallas, von der Leyen, Macron, Starmer, Rutte, everyone.

They are seriously preparing for a war with Russia. They are not hiding that fact.

Negotiations between Damascus and the SDF have completely collapsed.

Reuters:

Pakistan’s defence industry has seen a surge in interest after its jets, drones and missiles were labeled “combat tested” during clashes with India last year.

Officials say Pakistan is in talks with 13 countries—several at advanced stages—to sell JF-17 fighter jets, drones and other weapons, driven by global supply chain disruptions and demand for cheaper alternatives to Western arms.

Kremlin:

Envoy Dmitriev plans to meet with some representatives of the U.S. delegation in Davos.

Kremlin:

It is premature to talk about Russia’s participation in the “Board of Peace.”

Russia still has many questions regarding the “Board of Peace.”

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov:

Trump said that Greenland is important for the security of the U.S.

Crimea is equally important for the security of Russia.

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov on Greenland:

There is no proof that Russia or China wants to seize Greenland.

We have nothing to do with this issue. We will monitor the situation.

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov:

I believe that Britain should be called “Britain.”

Because Great Britain is the only example of a country calling itself “great.”

Another example was the Libyan Jamahiriya, which no longer exists.

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov:

Washington clearly understands that neither Russia nor the PRC has plans to seize Greenland.

Trump has invited leaders from 58 countries to join the “Board of Peace.”

Ursula von der Leyen:

The seismic change we are going through today is an opportunity—in fact, a necessity—to build a new form of European independence.

Ursula von der Leyen:

This agreement (EU-Mercosur) sends a powerful message to the world:

That we are choosing fair trade over tariffs, partnership over isolation, sustainability over exploitation.

And that we are serious about diversifying our supply chains.

Ursula von der Leyen:

We will not stop in Latin America.

Last year we reached new agreements with Mexico, Indonesia, and Switzerland.

We are working on a new free trade agreement with Australia.

We are also advancing with the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, the UAE, and more.

Ursula von der Leyen:

Right after Davos, I will travel to India.

We are on the cusp of a historic trade agreement—some call it the “mother of all deals.”

Ursula von der Leyen:

Europe will always choose the world, and the world is ready to choose Europe.

Ursula von der Leyen:

Our companies are taking up AI at the same pace as their US peers.

Europe is in the race for the key technologies of tomorrow.
