Turkish Foreign Ministry:

We strongly condemn the UAV attacks carried out today in Azerbaijan’s Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic.

We once again emphasize that attacks targeting third countries in the region and increasing the risk of the war spreading must come to an end as soon as possible.

Türkiye will continue to stand by Azerbaijan, as it always has.

Keir Starmer on Iran:

The best way forward for the regime and the world is a negotiated settlement with Iran, where they give up their nuclear ambitions.

Keir Starmer on Iran:

We are sending four additional Typhoon jets to join our squadron in Qatar.

Israeli Minister Bezalel Smotrich says Beirut’s Dahieh district will soon “look like Khan Younis.”

Keir Starmer on Iran:

My strong view is that ultimately this will have to be a matter of negotiation when it comes to some of the core issues, like nuclear capability.

Keir Starmer on Iran:

I took the decision that the UK would not join the initial strikes on Iran by the U.S. and Israel.

Stephen Miller to Latin Americans:

Not a single one of your nations should tolerate the existence of a single square mile of territory that is under the control of any entity other than the sovereign governments of your country.

Stephen Miller on cartels:

The cartels that operate in this hemisphere are the ISIS and Al Qaeda of the Western Hemisphere and should be treated just as brutally and just as ruthlessly as we treat those organizations.

Stephen Miller to Latin Americans:

For too long, we've been caught in the vicious cycle in this hemisphere where countries from Mexico down to the tip of South America do not provide their citizens with basic physical security. So those citizens, in search of economic opportunity, illegally immigrate to the United States.

They pay the smugglers, they pay the cartels, who then grow richer, who then grow more powerful, and then your countries in turn become poorer because you've lost your citizens, you've lost your human capital, and you've lost your opportunities to develop and to grow.

Azerbaijan's President Aliyev after Iran's drone attack on Azerbaijan today:

We are ready to show our strength against any evil force, and let them not forget this in Iran.

This terrorist act they committed, along with all other dirty factors, is a clear example of ingratitude.

As soon as the recent events took place, we sent them a message and expressed our condolences.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs spoke with his counterpart on my instructions, and I personally went to their embassy to offer condolences—although no other head of state had done so.

To disregard this, to trample it down, and to behave like base, ungrateful people brings honor to no one.

Those dishonorable people who committed this terrorist act against us will regret it. Let them not test our strength.

The heads of those who tried to test our strength were split by the Iron Fist.

Stephen Miller:

Illegal immigration facilitated by criminal networks is a form of terrorism.

Stephen Miller:

The human rights that we are going to protect are not those of the savages who torture, rape, and murder.

The human rights we are going to protect are those of the peaceable citizens who have an absolute human right to live in physical safety and security every day of their lives.

Azerbaijan's President Aliyev after Iran's drone attack on Azerbaijan today:

I should also state that this morning I was informed that the Deputy Foreign Minister of Iran called Baku requesting Azerbaijan’s help to evacuate the employees of the Iranian embassy who remained in Lebanon, because they do not have the capability.

This was reported to me and I immediately gave instructions to provide assistance and send a plane.

They even said they were ready to pay for it, but I said it was not necessary. If we do not provide assistance in difficult times, then when should we provide assistance?

Yet in return for all this, striking Nakhchivan in such a dirty, cowardly and unmanly way—this stain will never be erased from their dirty and ugly face.

BREAKING: Azerbaijan closes southern airspace near Iran for 12 hours.

Hegseth:

We want to prevent external powers from threatening our peace and independence in our shared neighborhood.

No external power will interfere in this hemisphere. Ours should be a region of strong, sovereign nations.

White House just posted this.

Hegseth on cartels:

Last month we went a few weeks without targeting a single boat.

Why? Because we couldn't find a whole lot of boats to sink.

Hegseth:

“Diversity is our strength” is the single dumbest phrase in military history.

Azerbaijan's President Aliyev after Iran's drone attack on Azerbaijan today:

Media outlets controlled by Iranian state bodies conducted a dirty slander campaign against Azerbaijan in order to smear our country and influence the views of our compatriots living in Iran.

They know very well that today the independent state of Azerbaijan is a source of hope for many Azerbaijanis living in Iran.

Therefore, smearing us, slandering us, and discrediting us before the Iranian public served this purpose, even though there was no basis for it.
