"They scream and shout not because they are winning, but because they know their time is running out, of those seeking to undermine international law and normalise the use of force."
"If we're not at the table, we're on the menu. The way forward is not to abandon globalisation altogether but to remake it: preserving openness while upholding a rules-based order."
