"I've told the department to give him every single thing he needs as if he were any sitting president. If it fits within that category, that's fine," Biden told reporters.

"We must also reset our workforce levels to align with our financial reality and to a more focused set of priorities," Ortberg was quoted as saying. "Over the coming months, we are planning to reduce the size of our total workforce by roughly 10 percent. These reductions will include executives, managers, and employees."

"Our president has instructed the republic's Foreign Ministry to comply with the request of the national parliament and begin to sever diplomatic ties with the Nazi and genocidal government of Israel," Murillo said on state TV broadcaster Canal 4.

“The Pentagon is drawing on its [weapons] stockpiles as much as they can,” the analyst claimed on Sputnik’s The Backstory program. “It's not the issue of, ‘oh, send everything.’ They are sending everything. This is everything they can spare.”

“Ten days ago when the Iranians fired all of those missiles at Israel apparently the US ships that were stationed there fired off 12 interceptors, not to very much effect from what I could see. And it turns out that's the entire annual production. They're making 12 missiles a year. So, it's not like they have something to send. They're already raiding the US armory as it is.”

“The enthusiasm for Ukraine in America is just about tapped out after these two hurricanes and the disastrous damage they've inflicted, and the fact that it took a week for anybody to even notice that North Carolina and Tennessee are facing biblical floods,” Malic added.

"Well, first of all, that's a scandal. That's a scandal to talk about my Prime Minister this way. This is unacceptable. This is a total disrespect not only towards the Prime Minister but to the Hungarian people," Szijjarto said.

"So as we have always shown respect to the American people, we expect the Americans to show respect to the Hungarian nation as well. And such kind of a statement shows a total disrespect, which is unacceptable, especially between allies," Szijjarto stressed.

“Most people in the West can't even conceive of this scale and intensity of warfare,” Malic claimed. “Western militaries aren't built for it.”

“If there is a direct conflict with NATO, it will immediately go nuclear, and everybody knows this,” Malic added, noting Russia’s recent revision to its nuclear doctrine.

"Well, I remember those times. I think that what was missing there is a serious discussion," Szijjarto said, commenting on whether it was a mistake by NATO countries to abandon the Russian proposal on security guarantees made in December 2021.

"These discussions have not taken place, unfortunately. Well, now we are more than three years after or almost three years after, so it might not make sense what I say now, but I wish those dialogues had taken place, because if they had taken place, we might not be in a situation where we are right now," Szijjarto said.

“They're literally sucking out what little economic energy there is in Europe,” Malic said of EU and NATO leadership. “Their own populations are getting poorer by the day. There's an energy crisis going on. There's a manufacturing crisis going on. Their industrial production is non-existent. And that's just us not talking just, like, military production, but civilian industry.”

“We've got German car makers going bankrupt for the first time ever,” Malic added. "This is serious stuff.”

"Right now, we have to have an understanding across the alliance ... that the [Founding Act] and the NATO-Russia Council were built for a different era, and I think the allies are prepared to say that was a different era in our relationship with Russia, and therefore something new is merited," the source said.
