The British government are applying pressure on the president and the government of the Maldives to do everything within their power to stop me getting on that boat and going to the Chagos Islands.

Now if I was an ISIS fighter crossing the channel to Dover they wouldn't give a damn, no they'd put me in a hotel, they'd give me three meals a day.

They've got search parties out trying to find me and they do not want me to leave this place.

If we do give away the Chagos Islands, already the Indians have cut a very substantial economic deal with Mauritius.

We know that China is deep in Mauritius; there's even a smart city there, and Huawei do the communications.

There will be a geopolitical battle for this part of the world, which has been settled ever since the end of World War II, and I get the sense that the Mauritius government and others do not want this to become a political football between India and China.

IF THE UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT DOES NOT RESUME OIL SUPPLIES TO SLOVAKIA ON MONDAY, ON THAT SAME DAY I WILL ASK THE RELEVANT SLOVAK COMPANIES TO STOP EMERGENCY ELECTRICITY SUPPLIES TO UKRAINE.

Given President Zelensky’s unacceptable behavior toward Slovakia, treating it as a hostile country, I consider it absolutely correct that I refused to involve the Slovak Republic in the latest €90 billion military loan for Ukraine.

Germany and France together are now too small to govern Europe. Together they do not even have a blocking minority.

Poland is not only the largest of the ten countries that joined the EU in 2004. Our economy is now among the 20 largest in the world.

As our great compatriot John Paul II once said: Europe must breathe with two lungs — one western and one eastern. Poland wants to represent the interests of our part of Europe.

Poland today has more tanks than Germany, France and the United Kingdom combined — and this advantage will grow in the coming years.

You have to listen to Trump; he doesn't hide his position.

He's asking: What cards do you have? So we need to have a better hand. Currently, we have a strong hand, since we're the ones paying for Ukraine 's armament, indeed for the Ukrainian state itself.

Therefore, we have a right to have our interests, that is, European interests, taken into account in any peace settlement.
