Oil markets is the structural coupling linking the regional conflicts and wars. It’s not the oilmprice per se, but secondary effects within the multiple domains of diplomacy and warfare, that is of real interest.

Activate: yes. Support: yes Sufficient support: by Nordics, Germany, France, Poland, - less from SW Europe. Setting the scene for the inverse reaction with the next wave of migration.

MS har cloud services hostet i EU. Grundkrav i statslige kontrakter. Pointen er at hverken Linux eller hosting i EU *i sig selv* er beskyttelse mod nøglen: den ominøse licens og adgang til updates.

Microsoft Azure Linux …. Ved at adskille software fra hosting, kan man fortsætte med Microsoft og udnytte stærke migrationsværktøjer i Azure-cloud.

@anderspucknielsen.dk has suggested this for some time now.

Here’s a recent suggestion of little green men heading for Narva as a distinct scenario.

Building block for dual-purpose logistics between Murmansk, Russia and Svalbard, Norway.

Denmark is celebrating constitution day - the US: not so much today.

Perfekt forvirring til Millenials. Der findes også Skalstrup nær Holstebro. Tak for update.

Nær oksbøl-artilleristerne. Oplagt. Tak for deling.

Fascinating. Where in Denmark would you expect the future training to be conducted?

Statslige og selvejende institutioner bør være med på listen.

The unprecedented aspect of the attack is that the drones appear to have been launched from trucks inside Russia – and the drivers reportedly had no idea what they were transporting. Maskirovka is a game both sides can play. 2/2
comment in response to post
The effect of Russia now having mistrust towards trucks, potentially implementing checks and roadside stops, will deteriorate logistics further and incur more costs on the Russian budget. Secondary effects might be costly as well.

Exactly. Haven’t had my phone register similar spoofing when frequently flying in and out of PLQ, VNO or RIX during the last thee years. So quite ‘fun’ to finally experience it first hand (from a window seat).
comment in response to post
I was wondering, if this indeed was the case. Flying from HEL to CPH late last Friday, left my app register a jumping movement from mainland Sweden to an area south of Klaipeda. Only stopped when passing north of Bornholm.

AI won’t solve the issues, but the location of power expenditure for AI processing can be in China or somewhere else. The export is the output, not the electricity to run AI; they don’t have the chips to run modern AI at scale in Russia anyway.

It’s just fascinating with the German naming scheme for their types. See fx the discussion on frigate vs destroyer. Maybe you knew something about a new classification from the May 15 Zielstruktur 2035, that I haven’t read (yet).
comment in response to post
Corvette, rather than Frigate? Stronger emphasis on littoral tasks. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braunsc...

JFE force projection only possible if threats are enforceable. New challenges await for political discussions.

The Hermann castle. It traces its origins back to the Rule of Danish kings in the 11.-13th century, defending the region against threats from the east.

Two nuclear armed states at it - again.

Its the border crossing at Narva, facing the 90+% Russian-speaking population. Estonia to the left, with a fortress dating back from the Danish king Valdemar II (Volodymyr), facing the Novgorod and Muscovite threat for 800+ years. Photo: Nov 2024 by me.

True. Masala argues that there’s a clear ambition to replenish and strengthen the output from the military-industrial complex for use by the RU army in a future war. www.derstandard.at/story/300000...
comment in response to post
Requirement of replenishment of MIL equipment will weigh heavily on RU state budget for years to come, promising continuing infusion of capital. War drags on, even after signing a future peace deal.

Der er i hvert fald god grund til at genlæse Kirkebæk (2019) ift nordisk-angelsaksisk stillingtagen til Finland og de baltiske staters selvstændighed, når stormagterne vender sig bort.
comment in response to post
Talk about a Byzantine vibe! In Greek Orthodoxy before Constantinople's fall, the emperor ruled both the earthly and divine realms—two sides of one coin. This Trump-as-pope pic replicates the vision of that fusion of power and faith.

Currently, the purported ‘news’ looks more and more like a well-designed influence operation to shape the information domain. BlueSky is not immune, nor am I :)

Saturation attack would be the way to go to lessen the improbability of reaching the Crimean strait / Kerch Bridge with explosives.
comment in response to post
The historical and military importance of the Kerch Bridge is well explained in this article from late 2022.

More recent video circulating, showing a ballistic impact (vertical arrival). I pylons are damaged, repairs will take time. If only a section is damaged, its comparatively easy to repair. It’s weeks versus months.

The French and British would like to have a word.

The European theater mostly stopped fighting; the indo-pacific went on. Rethorically, this makes the last three months a succession war, decoupling the two theaters into two simultaneous wars. What an affront to veterans, diplomats and historians.
