Otherwise, how will we be able to put an end to a deadlock from which the Conference has been suffering since 1996?

For eight years the Conference on Disarmament has agreed on this agenda, but its discussions have subsequently been totally deadlocked.

That is where we are stuck at the moment, and that is what we must unstick.

The New Transatlantic Stalemate

It is a matter of great concern for us that deliberations in the Conference on Disarmament the sole multilateral forum for disarmament negotiations have been stalled for years on end.

Breaking the Climate Deadlock

But the deadlock has been broken.

The swimmers were numb with cold.

So, it was going nowhere.

Syria s Sectarian Stalemate

This stalemate should be overcome.

Instability from Rigidity

What is the reason for this stalemate?

While the peace and reconciliation process is at an impasse, the socio economic and humanitarian situation of the country continues to deteriorate, directly affecting the people of Côte d'Ivoire.

The muscles were frozen, paralyzed dystonic is how we refer to that.

This policy is causing gridlock.

Although it seems we are still at that impasse, I discern some potential avenues to take us out of it.

There are no signs of this impasse going away because there is no political will amongst key actors to remove it.

But denuclearization negotiations have stalled.

Breaking Europe s Climate Change Stalemate

You know what? They freeze.

These are the arguments we have which cause gridlock.

We must try to break the deadlock.

We need to break the stalemate of the CD.

After standing for 6 hours, Antonio's legs became stiff.

The Conference on Disarmament remains deadlocked.

Please keep your back straight, etc., etc., etc. where I was probably just going to end up absolutely rigid, frozen, and I would not be able to strike the drum, because I was thinking of so many other things he said, Evelyn, take this drum away for seven days, and I'll see you next week.

We continue to urge other Conference members to display equal flexibility in our collective efforts to break the deadlock that has persisted for far too long.

They're very, very stiff. They stretch very, very little.

We were at an impasse earlier this morning.

The disarmament stalemate should not be allowed to continue.

My fingers are so numb with cold that I can't play the piano.

I am not sure what the prospects are for truly emerging from that impasse.

Still, the CD remains in its ninth year of deadlock.

We have to speak up. We have to solve this democracy this We have sclerosis in our democracy. And we have to change that.

The EU regrets the ongoing stalemate in the Conference on Disarmament and is convinced that the new threats to peace and security require that this standstill be overcome as soon as possible.

At the same time, after years of frustrating stalemate, it would be imperative for the Security Council as the principal organ entrusted with the primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security to address the underlying causes of the stalemate in the peace process, including those relating to the Ethiopian position on the decision of the Eritrea Ethiopia Boundary Commission.

First, while a purely Austrian response (that is, austerity) to bursting asset and credit bubbles may lead to a depression, QE policies that postpone the necessary private and public sector deleveraging for too long may create an army of zombies zombie financial institutions, zombie households and firms, and, in the end, zombie governments. So, somewhere between the Austrian and Keynesian extremes, QE needs to be phased out over time.
