🇶🇦Qatar’s Prime Minister:

The U.S. will always be our strategic ally, and that’s what I keep repeating.

We believe that our alliance is solid and nothing is going to break it.

Our equipment is American equipment, and we continue doing our joint training.

We will continue having a strong relationship with the U.S. and the U.S. military. And, of course, it’s a two-way partnership. It’s never a one-way partnership.

🇶🇦Qatar’s Prime Minister on Gaza:

There is a party who is reckless and who is not standing up to its commitment, continuing to kill and preventing humanitarian aid from entering, while others are not doing much about it.

We are calling on the Israeli government to fulfill its commitment.

Q: Is Iran a troublemaker?

Qatar’s PM: It appears very clearly that they are not a peacemaker.

🇩🇪Germany's Chancellor Merz:

It is a dramatic and unprecedented result for the CDU in Germany that we were unable to clear the 5% threshold and that an entire parliamentary group has been thrown out of the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state parliament.

We were just 1,000 votes short of returning to the state parliament.

🇩🇪Germany's Chancellor Merz:

The election results and the reasons for these results go far beyond my own person.

We are experiencing a profound transformation of the political party system in Germany, as we are in many other countries around the world.

In yesterday’s election here in Berlin, for example, more than 40% voted for forces that are destructive, that call our political and parliamentary system into question, and that try to inspire people with radical and simple solutions.

🇩🇪Germany's Chancellor Merz:

We will talk about the work and structure of the party, about our program and about the profile of the CDU.

To put it openly: on too many questions, we no longer have satisfactory answers, and we will change that — we have to change that.

🇩🇪Germany's Chancellor Merz:

In Germany, with Konrad Adenauer, we left nationalism behind us.

We will ensure that this remains the case in the future.

🇮🇱🇩🇪Germany's Chancellor Merz:

Especially here in Berlin, Jewish life in Germany is no longer safe.

That is the gravest burden of recent years, and it is something that must deeply concern all democratic parties in Germany.

I personally stand for doing everything possible to ensure that Jewish life in Germany, and here in the capital Berlin, is safe.

🇮🇱🇪🇺🇩🇪Germany's Chancellor Merz:

Colleagues in the European Union and many investors have been asking me for weeks: "What is actually going on in Germany?"

What worries me most of all is that, not only in Berlin but especially in Berlin, for several months we have been experiencing increasing, radical and openly expressed antisemitism.

🇺🇸🌎 Trump Administration Pledges $410 Million for Third-Country Deportations

▪️ The Trump administration has authorized or pledged at least $410 million for agreements with 31 countries, mostly in Africa and Latin America, to accept migrants deported from the U.S. who are not their citizens.

▪️ More than 25,000 migrants have been sent to third countries, as the administration says the policy helps remove people who cannot be returned home and serves as a deterrent.

🇷🇺 Russia’s Deputy Security Council Chairman Dmitry Medvedev:

Le Pen called Russia’s takeover of Auchan assets “hostile actions.”

Thousands of sanctions against Russians in France, plus rockets for Kiev’s degenerates — was that friendly?

Apparently Le Pen’s party is now a regular European party: Russophobia and support for Nazis in Kiev.

Trump considered ordering strikes against the Houthis in Yemen over the weekend but decided not to proceed, according to two U.S. officials.

The move came after Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman urged Trump to take action as the Houthis advanced toward the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, a key Red Sea chokepoint.

Trump initially rejected the request, agreeing only to provide Saudi Arabia with intelligence and targeting support. U.S. officials said Washington would avoid military action unless the Houthis disrupted non-Saudi shipping.

After Saudi forces struggled to push back Houthi advances, Riyadh again requested U.S. strikes.

CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper prepared airstrike options that were presented to Defense Secretary Hegseth, but Trump ultimately decided against launching them.

🇷🇺Kremlin:

Russia does not threaten France or any other state in Europe. President Putin has said this repeatedly.

We have no disputes with any European states that could be the reason for any serious disagreements.

Therefore, Russia does not represent any threat, and Russia threatens no one and blackmails no one.

🇷🇺🇩🇪Kremlin on Germany:

We note that, to a large extent, the decline in the competitiveness of the German economy is happening because Germany stopped buying cheap Russian gas and began buying very expensive gas from other countries.

Naturally, Germans — at least part of the German population — are looking for an alternative to the current authorities in order to improve their situation.

This is a natural process.

🇺🇦Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba:

We have to work with AfD.

I spoke with acquaintances there, and they say that there are people who sit quietly but are quite influential in shaping the party line, who understand that Ukraine needs to continue to be supported and that we need to work.

🇺🇦Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba:

I always tell Ukrainians who live abroad that if you have already decided to stay there, then become a political force.

My thesis is that I want, within a maximum of 30 years, a prime minister or president of some European country to be a person of Ukrainian origin, a person with Ukrainian roots.

🇺🇦🤡🇺🇸🤡Zelensky, in response to Trump's persistent calls to stop targeting Russian oil refineries, stated that Ukraine will only take such a step if Russia stops its attacks on Ukrainian critical infrastructure and exports.

It is highly unlikely that the Russian leadership will abandon its planned campaign of attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure this winter, especially as long as the Russian Armed Forces maintain an advantage in ballistic missiles and drones.

🇺🇸Trump:

I can report to you with pride that America is back, and our country is stronger today than ever before.

🇺🇸Trump:

The entire world is being lifted by the wealth, strength and momentum of a newly energized U.S.A.

🇺🇸Trump:

I have no interest in leaving dangers to grow for another day. I do not believe in letting problems fester. They only become harder to solve.

So, while others have talked, I have acted.

While others have spoken of peace, I have made peace.

While others have ignored threats, I have confronted them.

🇺🇸🇮🇷Trump on Iran:

They were the bully of the Middle East, but they are the bully no more.

From the first day I entered the political arena, I have been unwavering:

I will never allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.
