Great experience to attend a breakfast roundtable at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) with H.E. Prime Minister Albin Kurti of Kosovo, MPs, and representatives from the UK media, civil society, and academia.

Thank you @profjacob.bsky.social, that is kind to say. Your reasoning is correct - in my case, publishing in interdisciplinary journals has been behind it. My work doesn’t lend itself to citations by the CJEU (which don’t show up on Google scholar anyway).
