#YouCanStillGetIt

As Copenhagen's summit week concludes, disruptive #drone incursions set the tone and brought Moscow's hybrid war to #EUCO. We asked @rynning.bsky.social about the significance of the operation, how the continent should respond, and the view from #Denmark.

Well done, Claire. Look forward to reading it.

Two big ones: the decision to build a new Europe after 1989 and now the Trump decisions to undo it. To this I would add the double-decision of 1979-1980 and the Afghanistan mission of the 2000s. I hope you’ll enjoy the read!

These bookstores in The Hague … clearly on top of their game 😉

Now that NATO’s Hague summit is being brandished as ‘historic’, you might want to read about the preceding 76 years.

It’s all there in “NATO: From Cold War to Ukraine” (Yale UP) 💪

Great thing about #NATO - mirror image works, too. Greetings from The Hague. Summit tomorrow. Stay tuned.

I NATO skal europæerne lære at leve med Trump – og det bliver dyrt Ekspert forventer, at USA allerede til efteråret vil annoncere troppereduktioner i Europa. NATO-topmødet de kommende dage handler om at begrænse skaderne og købe tid, så europæerne kan tage over

Busy day at @d-ias.bsky.social with Joseph Stiglitz. Here in the hands of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation. Open lecture at 2 pm… Maybe see you there?

De taler i artiklen om, at USA skal afdække ‘holdninger’ på Grønland til USA og ‘identificere’ mennesker, som sympatiserer med dem. Rekruttering vil, som du siger, være noget helt andet.

Exclusive | U.S. Orders Intelligence Agencies to Step Up Spying on Greenland The push underscores the seriousness of President Trump’s intent to acquire the island from Denmark.

Not a friendly action: ‘The U.S. is stepping up its intelligence-gathering efforts regarding Greenland, drawing America’s spying apparatus into President Trump’s campaign to take over the island’

#NATO's krise under Trump er historisk. Går det galt, vil Europa opleve, at 1949-2025 var en parentes, og at fortidens magtbalancespil vil tegne fremtiden. Min kronik i Børsen.

‘Home alone’: How Trump is changing security in Europe Trump’s return has left Europe’s main military pact looking less assured. Now defence is being reshaped on the continent.

Home Alone - how #Trump threatens to destroy #NATO and leave #Europe in a mess. My comments to the #SidneyMorningHerald.

www.smh.com.au/world/europe...

Europe on edge: Macron calls Russia a ‘threat’ as EU races toward massive rearmament The European Union is making rearmament its priority to counter the menace of a bellicose Russia and an unfriendly United States under President Donald Trump.

Between defense funds and capability there is strategy and organization, and Europe on its own has neither. Europe thus needs time and continued, if difficult, partnership with the United States. My take below.

NBA game yesterday. Bulls did well, but in last five minutes, Cavaliers settled it. Great game 😎

The convergence between the plans of regional dominance of #Trump and #Putin is alarming. It makes you wonder why.
