From Denmark - with love and deep concern. Cheering on the American people to stand up. Democracy is calling on all of us. “Never again” means NOW.

Watching the terrifying scenes from Minneapolis through tears, my heart goes out to the American people. I truly hope your country can find its way back to unity, and that you will keep showing the courage to stand up against what is wrong, even when it feels overwhelming.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

News Analysis: After President Trump threatened a trade war over Greenland, Europe is weighing retaliating with an “anti-coercion instrument,” a tool that could be used to limit American companies that do large amounts of business on the continent.

After Trump Reignites a Trade War Over Greenland, Europe Weighs Going All-Out
Europe’s dependence on the United States for NATO security limits its options. Its strongest response could be retaliating with its own trade “bazooka.”

This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland: "Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."
6 January 2026
Joint Statement on Greenland
Statement by President Macron of France, Chancellor Merz of Germany, Prime Minister Meloni of Italy, Prime Minister Tusk of Poland, Prime Minister Sánchez of Spain, Prime Minister Starmer of the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Frederiksen of Denmark on Greenland.
Arctic security remains a key priority for Europe and it is critical for international and transatlantic security.
NATO has made clear that the Arctic region is a priority and European Allies are stepping up. We and many other Allies have increased our presence, activities and investments, to keep the Arctic safe and to deter adversaries. The Kingdom of Denmark - including Greenland - is part of NATO.
Security in the Arctic must therefore be achieved collectively, in conjunction with NATO allies including the United States, by upholding the principles of the UN Charter, including sovereignty, territorial integrity and the inviolability of borders. These are universal principles, and we will not stop defending them.
The United States is an essential partner in this endeavour, as a NATO ally and through the defence agreement between the Kingdom of Denmark and the United States of 1951.
Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland.

When Orbán celebrates Trump and Putin making the world “safer”, that’s my cue to panic😳😬🫣
News story from Danish TV2 saying: 

“The world has become safer after summit between Trump and Putin, says Orbán

The Hungarian Prime Minister, Viktor Orbán, stated Saturday morning that “the world is a safer place” after the meeting between Trump and Putin. This is reported by the news agency Reuters.
For years we have seen the two largest nuclear powers dismantle the framework for their cooperation and send messages to each other. Now that is over, says Orbán.”

Thousands of Ukrainian parents are on the front lines, separated from their families. They live for moments like these. In a normal world, families shouldn’t be torn apart. Ukraine’s defenders fight so things come back to normal.

This morning, I’ve seen a lot of videos from the massive No Kings demonstrations. But this one brought tears to my eyes. They’ve lived through wars and crises. They’ve seen it all - and they’re ready to fight. Justice and dignity don’t retire - and democracy belongs to the people, not to one man.

The US Embassy in Copenhagen applied for parking licenses - and, astonishingly, demanded that the issuing authority comply with the US directive regarding DEI. As the Mayor rightly put it: “It is completely absurd to think you can interfere with Copenhagen Municipality’s policies on equality.”

Watching this from 🇩🇰 is absolutely surreal. I can’t believe this happened yesterday — in the US. A peaceful woman, attending a town hall, was carried out by police for simply asking: “What is your red line? When will you stand up for the Constitution?” If “Never again” means anything, it means NOW!
