The last few days have provided Europeans with an important lesson on how to handle Trump. Don't beg, don't bluster, but do use the leverage you have to impose costs of him for his reckless behavior. European Greenland actions should inform their Ukraine policy. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
Well Europe, Do You Get It Finally? Standing Up To Trump Works Better Than Prostrating Yourself
Now, do the same about Ukraine

Vi tager kortvarigt tilbage til REGAN Vest for at uddybe den psykologiske side af atombunkerophold. Det leder os over i en snak om atompsykologi generelt – og “atomstoicisme”.
Hvis du endnu ikke har hørt episode 108 fra vores tur til REGAN Vest, så er det et godt sted at starte.

John and Max are spot on with this. It is baffling how Euro leaders seem to be focusing on appeals to principles that carry no weight for the current US administration, instead of seeking meaningful deterrents. It's repeating the same mistake as when trying to cajole Putin in late 2021-early 2022.
Agree, the threat of retaliation has to be both more personal to Trump - he's done in Europe - and also economic (trade deal dead, massive retaliation vs. US tech/stock market).
These comments -- "Danish prime minister says a US takeover of Greenland would mark the end of NATO" -- are getting a lot of press... but, given the politics of DC today, I doubt they form the deterrent Danish leaders hope for. DNK needs a different line of argument. www.npr.org/2026/01/06/n...

At Putin, Trump (og hånddukken Orban) hidser sig op over EU er et godt tegn - for så er EU på rette vej. Hvis EU opfører sig som en dørmåtte bliver vi trådt på; hvis vi opfører os som en stormagt, pisser vi de andre stormagter af, og det er godt. @anderspucknielsen.dk leverer endnu en skarp analyse.

Så fik vi nok også svaret på, hvordan man vil holde øje med, hvad VPN bruges til. Jeg troede egentlig, jeg var lidt paranoid - men nej.
Står det til regeringen, skal teleselskaberne tvinges til at lukke FE ind, lade tjenesten installere spionudstyr og afkryptere trafikken til den.
Dermed kan hele befolkningen potentielt aflyttes på forhånd, siger ekspert.
Det er "meget vidtgående", ifølge teleudbyderne.

Have you noticed how “corruption” is a constant media buzzword in articles about Ukraine, yet rarely comes up when discussing the current administration? Many things the Trump administration did would be considered exorbitant even by today’s Ukrainian “corruption standards”.

@economist.com his the nail on the head this week. Europe can easily afford to support Ukraine -- and it is not even that costly, as long as all members participate. Joint debt will rope in even the recalcitrant ones.

Chat Control will leave European enterprises naked. It will mean no secrecy at all in internal or external communication, IP. Palantir and thus US will be able to tap into everything, and soon China will too, as it get access through the backdoor. I don’t get why EU industry is silent on this one.
This desperately needs to be shot down. "Chat Control, first introduced in 2022, would require service providers, including end-to-end encrypted platforms like Signal, to scan all platform communications and files to screen for “abusive material” before a message is sent."
