DRONES OVER DENMARK? After six months chasing evidence of drone‑based hybrid attacks in fall 2025, I’ve found none. Senior officials say they haven’t either. The government won’t answer questions until after the election. You’d almost think the case is embarrassing.

Meget meget læsværdig historie i The New Yorker fra de polske skove og de migranter, som stadig forsøger at komme den vej ind i Europa.

Mit første Bluesky-post i lang tid skal være dette i anledning af valgkamp:
Store Bededag blev ikke stjålet som en tyv om natten.
Den blev stjålet som AF en tyv om natten.
Man stjæler jo ikke en tyv, for fanden.
“Trump’s interest in Greenland is not going away,” Rasmus Sondergaard, an analyst at @diis.dk in Copenhagen, told me recently. “Danes are outraged by Trump’s refusal to rule out the use of military force.”

Situationen ved den estisk-russiske grænse er under kontrol, skriver udenrigsminister Tsahkna
Estonia has closed off a road/border passing through Russia after larger than usual groups of troops have been spotted.
Comment: I am hard pressed to find any insignia on those filmed and SE news claims "little green men".
Et stykke af vejen fra byen Värska til Saatse - “Saatse-støvlen” er derfor også blevet lukket. Vejen går nemlig direkte igennem russisk territorium af Sovjet-historiske årsager.
Både private bilister og den offentlige transport skal nu omdirigeres.

En større gruppe bevæbnede russiske soldater er fredag set bevæge sig langs grænsen og tæt ved grænsen mod Estland.
“At dømme ud fra deres uniformer var de bestemt ikke grænsevagter.”
De estiske myndigheder har lukket grænseovergangen ved Saatse og vejen tæt ved.

Economist har lavet en oversigt over russiske hybride angreb i Europa fra 2018 og frem til maj i år.
Den seneste måneds drone-show mangler selvfølgelig.
En oversigt, der i øvrigt kan opdateres nærmest ugentligt, alt efter hvad man tager med.
Dejligt! Tillykke 🥳
Merkel leder febrilsk efter en måde at pynte på sit eftermæle. Hun kommer det ikke ligefrem nærmere her:
"Merkel giver Polen og de Baltiske lande en del af skylden for Putins krig".
Worth nuancing (valid) worries about Babis-led Czechia joining Hungary & Slovakia in trio of EU spoiler states + democratic backsliders.
1/ Czech institutions strong
2/ Babis's ANO has backed off some prior pro-🇷🇺🇨🇳 positions
3/ ANO not all-mighty; will form minority govt or lead fractious coalition

Valgstederne er nu lukket i 🇲🇩. Valgdeltagelsen ≈ 52%. Det højeste fremmøde siden 2014. Valgstederne i udlandet er åbne indtil kl 21:00 lokal moldovisk tid. Umiddelbart er fremmødet betydelig i både diaspora og Chisinau, men lavt i Transnistrien - ergo: Gode nyheder for PAS.
Together with our host, Defence Minister Antti Häkkänen, we presented the outcomes of the VTC with EU frontline Member State ministers in Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮 to the media & the public.

Dagens gang i Omvendtland: "Et klart eksempel er krisen i Ukraine, fremprovokeret af det kollektive Vesten, gennem hvis hænder NATO og Den Europæiske Union ønsker at erklære, allerede har erklæret, en reel krig mod mit land og deltager direkte i den."
Fra TASS:
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen warned yesterday that a "hybrid war" has started in Europe after waves of drones shut down Danish airspace this week.
Har du et (eller et par) spørgsmål til de seneste dages hændelser med droner over Danmark?
Matias Seidelin, @askrost.bsky.social og Charlotte Wetche svarer på spørgsmål i livechatten og på News 18.20.

DRONES OVER DENMARK If Russian-linked ships are involved, keep an eye on the sanctioned tankers Pushpa and Sea Maverick. Both were within drone range of Copenhagen and western Danish airports when the incidents occurred.

#GeorgiaProtests
#terrorinGeorgia continues, but we will win!
Day 300 of #GeorgiaProtests: The Ivanishvili regime has done everything to crush peaceful protest in Georgia: jailing nearly all opposition leaders, arresting & torturing protesters, shrinking civic space, unleashing unprecedented repression against critical citizens, launching baseless legal cases.
“Russia is establishing new rules of the game in NATO’s east, setting the stage for a new phase in its undeclared conflict with the alliance. Poland’s promise to shoot down Russian aircraft that violate its airspace is a logical next step” My latest: theeasternflank.substack.com/p/russia-vio...
Det er løgn og hysteri, når Polen og Estland siger, at Rusland har krænket landenes luftrum. Det siger Ruslands Poljanskij her til aften ved mødet i FN’s sikkerhedsråd.
Estonia has requested NATO consultations under Article 4 after Russian MiG-31 jets violated its airspace. “Such a breach is completely unacceptable,” Prime Minister Kristen Michal said.
"I want to remind you of the words of our president. Russia has never threatened anyone. It does not threaten European countries," Peskov said (he was quoted by RBC ).
Remember how they attacked Ukraine and argued it wasn't them in 2014? Same playbook.

It's escalating more and more.
JUST IN: Georgia's illegitimate President Mikheil Kavelashvili PARDONS jailed Lelo party leaders Mamuka Khazaradze and Badri Japaridze.
While people are sacrificing everything in this battle, Lelo chose to go against apparent public will and participate in the sham local elections. 1/2
