Thierry de Montbrial
President and Founder of the World Policy Conference
A quarter of a century after the end of the cold war, the age is no longer conducive to dreaming of naïve globalisation and of the end of History. But we must learn to live better with globalisation as it really is, i.e. with a degree of interdependence that will deepen even more considerably.
Sheikh Abdullah bin Naser bin Khalifa Al-Thani
Prime Minister, Qatar
We are probably all aware that our contemporary world is going through an unprecedented phase, abundant with grave challenges to safety, stability and sustainable development in the shadow of the impaired world order that suffers from double standards in dealing with people’s affairs.
Jean-Marc Ayrault
Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Development, France
Faced with the world’s disorders, the only response is to join our forces, to show solidarity and to find collective solutions to shared problems. We need to continue our action. To act ceaselessly. To act while remaining loyal to our principles. Never to give up. That is France’s conviction.
Jim Hoagland
Contributing Editor, The Washington Post
Ahmet Davutoglu
Former Prime Minister of Turkey
The question is clear. Are we going towards global governance or towards world disorder? If you visit these capitals, you will see that there is a source of concern everywhere.

Fear took over and now, globalisation is seen as the root of all evil. So do we abandon the globalisation experiment? Or do we try and save it as it is and engage in a useless fight to save “business as usual”. Of course, the answer is neither.
Saeb Erekat
Palestinian Chief Negotiator, Palestine
Mark my words very carefully; what is going on in the Arab world is exactly what Europe went through on 15 March 1848, when Chancellor Metternich had to flee his palace after three weeks of peaceful demonstrations in Vienna.
Jim Hoagland
Contributing Editor, The Washington Post
Xiaosheng Gong
China’s Special Envoy on the Middle East Issue
First, passing initially through Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya, those four hot spots in crisis should be considered together. The international community should not emphasise the crisis in just one or two and forget others, especially Palestine issues.

Former Prime Minister, Syria
This escalation of the war waged by the regime and its Russian and Iranian allies falls under the shadow of pivotal transformations at all regional and international levels.
