Pretty dramatic statement when put like that.

Many voters think that they are.

The early warnings allow for air raid alerts, so they are definitely important for the civilian population. I think the intelligence matters somewhat for Ukrainian strikes when there is talk about striking the air defense systems themselves. Here, I do think the flights over the Black Sea do matter.

Both Ukraine and US officials had an interest in exaggerating the narrative of intelligence sharing. Surely it is helpful to get information from other sources, but it's not like Russia's air defense would suddenly be unbreakable if US stops sharing intelligence.

Yes, but not enough for Ukraine to stop fighting.

Russia winning in Ukraine is worse for European security.

It does make a difference whether something is part of a military operation or a law enforcement effort.

And no, I don't actually support the drone strikes that especially Obama used a lot. But let's not normalize what is happening in Venezuela with false equivalents.

Sure, but it's not of war decisive importance.

Definitely not important enough to decide the war.

Somewhat. But overall, the big winner of the local elections is the right-center party. Worth noticing, the right is also behind the new left-leaning mayor in Copenhagen. The dissatisfaction with the social democrats was that big.

No, but I think it's silly to insinuate that the Danish voters on average want a softer migration policy than S is currently offering. (Which is what the article suggests.)

If you look at the government as a whole, the voters have moved in both directions.

Det mest skræmmende er hvis Trump virkelig er så dum at han nu forsøger at lancere den samme dødsdømte plan for fjerde gang.

No, but that does not keep the populist right from still demanding more.

It means that almost everyone feels a bit dissatisfied with the current government.

I think her biggest problem is that she has been in power so long that voters just begin to feel that it is time to shake things up. It's also worth noting that the current constellation with a center government is extremely unusual in Denmark. We usually have either left or right coalitions.

Men det er vel også fordi der har været mange om at dele de stemmer, der gik til Lars. Så var der ikke så mange til hver.

Hehe, I don't think that is in the cards. 😂
