New: We analyzed Trump's meme coin - At least 27 crypto wallets have picked up $100 million worth of $TRUMP coins since his team said the top holders would join him for an "intimate private dinner." Huge profit for Trump; "the most brazenly corrupt thing a President has ever done" wapo.st/4iAatO1

Mind-boggling corruption. Trump is brazenly selling access to the White House to the highest bidders (and with no guardrails on nationality). And Republicans remain dead silent. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/t...

Now imagine if America’s allies in 2001 had rushed to shake hands with Bin Laden with the same joy and excitement. That’s exactly what it looks like today.

👀 New York Post new cover!

Today in 1974, Portugal’s Carnation Revolution toppled Europe’s longest dictatorship—in just 24 hours. Putting an end to thirteen years of colonial war in Africa. A rare coup not to seize power, but to restore democracy.

There are two reasons why Trump talks about running again in 2028 despite this being illegal: 1) He actually would like to run again, and 2) he doesn't want people to start talking about potential successors. So who do you think the candidates will be in the republican primaries?

Just dropped a heavy-hitter panel on The Focus. Michta, Hodges, and Nielsen join me to talk Ukraine, NATO, and what comes next. It’s strategy, unfiltered. 🎧 Give it a listen: youtu.be/vLy8C9kCs0s?... #Ukraine #Geopolitics #TheFocusPodcast #SecurityStrategy

I joined the The Focus podcast together with @general-ben.bsky.social and @andrewmichta.bsky.social. It's a good conversation about European security with perspectives from both sides of the Atlantic. As a bonus, I convinced @thefocuspodadl.bsky.social to join Bluesky, so do give them a follow.

When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles. Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.

Whether genuine or not(devil is in the details), Kremlin has succeeded in creating the impression of Putin “ready to compromise for peace” ahead of Trump’s deadline. Zelensky doesn’t have much time to come up with a good comeback.

Trump har overspillet sine kort. Mange trumfer er smidt i hænderne på Putin, og 🇺🇦 har han undervurderet. Derfor vil vi sandsynligvis se 🇺🇸 stemple ud af de såkaldte “fredsforhandlinger”. Min analyse👉🏻 nyheder.tv2.dk/udland/2025-...

An important thread -- more in @samagreene.bsky.social 's excellent Substack as well.

These are negotiations about a ceasefire. It is insane to give these kinds of concessions before the negotiations about a final peace settlement even begin. One has to wonder what Russia will expect to get at that point.

In this video, I discuss the effects of drone technology on the conduct of warfare. The consequences are so significant that it is relevant to talk about a paradigm shift, and unfortunately, most militaries in NATO are not prepared for it.

Der er tegn på, at en russisk forårsoffensiv er på vej. Spørgsmålet er med hvilken styrke, og om offensiven reelt allerede er i gang? @anderspucknielsen.dk og Jesper Hein Olsen var gæster i seneste afsnit af 'Krigens døgn'

The man to whom the Kremlin offered tea. @glandsbergis.bsky.social visited the bunker. He might even have survived. "Europe has still not woken up". youtu.be/yJ-Vf0myEM8

In Cairo, I joined the Arab-Islamic Ministerial Committee to discuss the situation in Gaza. We condemned the renewed hostilities and called for the urgent resumption of humanitarian aid. The two-state solution is the only path to lasting peace. Our joint statement → europa.eu/!TDCQwn

Europe must be ready for any threat, at every level of society. Today, we present a strategy to better anticipate risks and prepare response, step up civil-military cooperation and work closely with partners. Because the best way to face threats is to stay ahead of them.

Pleased to meet Nobel Peace Prize laureate Denis Mukwege. His work at Panzi Hospital in the Democratic Republic of Congo has given hope to countless survivors of sexual violence in conflict. We discussed the need to defend a world that puts human dignity first.

Thank you Turkmenistan for hosting us in your beautiful capital for the Central Asia–EU Ministerial. We had an insightful exchange covering many topics in preparation of the first EU-Central Asia Summit next week We are opening a new chapter in EU cooperation with Central Asia.

Tajikistan’s leading role on water and climate diplomacy is crucial at a time of severe environmental challenges. Minister Muhriddin, we are a proud partner in your efforts here, including through financing the mega Rogun hydropower plan.

Next week, Uzbekistan will host the first EU Summit with Central Asia. Thank you President Mirziyoyev and Foreign Minister Saidov for welcoming me ahead of this important milestone. The EU and Uzbekistan are working together in many areas, from improving connectivity to addressing security threats

Rounding up my visit of Central Asia! Thank you President Tokayev and Minister Nurtleu for the hospitality and insightful discussions. We appreciate Kazakhstan’s important role and see eye-to-eye with its respect for international law and the UN Charter.

Deeply saddened by the powerful earthquake that has struck Myanmar and Thailand. This adds to the already critical situation in Myanmar, where millions of people are in need of humanitarian assistance. The EU stands with the people of Myanmar and Thailand.

It is a pleasure to be in Madrid. Today marks three weeks since Ukraine agreed to a ceasefire. Since then, Russia has obstructed and evaded efforts for peace. My doorstep ahead of the G5+ Ministerial meeting on European security and Ukraine ↓

Russia must stop its delaying tactics. It must reciprocate by agreeing without delay, as Ukraine has done, to an immediate unconditional ceasefire. We need to see progress within a clear timeframe. (1/2)

The EU expresses its readiness to engage with the new government in supporting efforts to address the considerable challenges ahead in Syria. Read more: europa.eu/!pQbJqR

Russia is destroying Ukraine’s present while denying the country its future. Only justice will give every Ukrainian family the peace of mind they need to rebuild their lives. Extract from my speech at #EPlenary ↓

Thank you, dear Roberta @president.europarl.europa.eu, for today’s exchange. As you said, Europe’s unity is our greatest strength in tackling these challenges.

Russia isn't winning, but they think so. Lykyanov explains the logic: “The continuation of the war, which we are slowly but surely winning, is in our interest. Especially considering that the main sponsor [the US] seems to be backing out … Why should we rush?” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

"The biggest flaw in the American analysis of the situation is that this is a war about defining a border... but that's not what this war is about. The war (in Ukraine) is about the political control of all of Ukraine" - Danish Military Analyst @anderspucknielsen.dk chats with Euromaidan Press

There is almost nothing the U.S. couldn't do security wise in Greenland already if they just ask. Unless, of course, the U.S. is preparing for a future where they are no longer allied with Denmark.

Sooner or later they will make a catastrophically stupid mistake.

Dear American friends. We agree that status quo in the Artcic is not an option. So let’s talk about how we can fix it - together. Lars Løkke Rasmussen Danish Foreign Minister

Denmark today announced it is acquiring “several hundred sea mines” to protect and block 🇩🇰Danish waters and straits. It is about partly rebuilding the Cold War capacity, where the navy had thousands of sea mines. No name has been revealed but a likely candidate is 🇫🇮 Forceit.

Why aren’t you wearing a suit? Have you said “Thank you” to Greenland and Denmark for allowing you to have a base on Greenland?

Congratulations to Greenland’s new government and Premier-elect Jens-Frederik Nielsen. You deserve partners who respect you and treat you as equals. And the European Union is proud to be such a partner for you.

Women's march against regime brutality after opposition leader Elene Khoshtaria spoke of her degrading treatment/torture and abuse in detention, which included stripping her naked - apparently a common practice now in detention in Georgia which needs more voicing. #GeorgiaProtests

The people who tell Europe that russia is not the biggest threat Europe faces now claim that they need Greenland because of the russian threat. As dishonest as it gets! They just want Greenland’s natural resources

This is America in 2025. To the free people of the world do not buy American and do not travel to The United States for any reason until Trump stops threatening to invade and annex our democratic allies. To my fellow Americans, RESIST!

@anderspucknielsen.dk taler om Danmark uden NATO. Han ser en EU forsvarsalliance som det mest realistiske. Jeg tænker at vi kan lave noget lagdelt: En superintegreret nordisk forsvarsalliance indenfor en EU alliance. Med Norge og UK som bonus medlemmer. 1/ www.dr.dk/nyheder/indl...
