"Denmark has decided to send all its artillery to Ukraine"
Mette Frederiksen, Prime Minister of Denmark.
"Ukraine is asking us for ammunition and artillery now. We, Denmark, have decided to transfer all our artillery to Ukraine. We have weapons, ammunition, air defense systems, which we do not use yet. They must be handed over to Ukraine."
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has made an extraordinary announcement at the MSC. Denmark will donate its entire artillery stockpile to Ukraine.
She correctly states that Western nations at the moment do not need the weapons and ammunition. Deliver now, produce now, be ready tomorrow.
The United States has given the green light to Denmark and the Netherlands for sending F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine to defend against Russian aggression as soon as pilot training is completed, a U.S. official said on Aug. 17, according to Reuters.

People might know that there are countries where it is effectively impossible for Jews to live.
What less people know is that there are countries where Jews are not banned outright, or prevented from getting work permits by law, but are made to pay a "Jew Tax" in the form of preventing Jews from producing kosher meat, requiring them to buy foreign meat that is less available and costs a lot more.
Those countries are Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia and Slovenia.
These countries have a "Jew Tax" which requires their Jewish citizens to buy food at higher prices.
Canada has now joined these countries.
When I was in school and people would ask "How could people pass laws against Jews?", the answer is this... by starting with making life more difficult for Jews, then like the frog in the pot, turning up the heat.
In 2019, scientists publish the results of their research on a 6000 year-old birch tar chewing gum found in #Denmark.
The reaction of white people won’t surprise you.
“Ancient #DNA analyses suggest that prehistoric Europeans looked different from modern Europeans today, but some people find that hard to accept. (…) some people who had seen the image of Lola thought that she looked “way too dark” and accused us—and the museum—of ‘blackwashing’ the past.”
“If you ask Ukrainians, they are asking us for ammunition now, artillery now. From the Danish side, we decided to donate our entire artillery,” Frederiksen said.
In #Denmark in the fall, when the temperature is high and drops suddenly in the evening, fog is often trapped in depressions in the landscape.
True to legend we say, the "bog woman is brewing", and the weather phenomenon is called mosekonebryg ("bog woman brew"). In the fairytales of H. C. Andersen this sight is described as a dangerous opening to hell.
I photographed this mosekonebryg in #Grejsdalen north of #Vejle today.
Does this phenomenon have a funny name in your country too? #SonyA7IV

Denmark will send its ‘entire artillery’ to Ukraine
Denmark will send its entire stock of ammunition to Kyiv, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced, becoming the first to do so and appealing to other European nations to do more to help Ukraine.
Nadia Nadim is a force to be reckoned with on the pitch. She’s feared by defenders worldwide. But there’s more. She’s also a doctor AND speaks 11 languages.
Moreover, her journey is filled with adversity.
She was born in Afghanistan. At age 9 her father was executed by the Taliban. 2 years later her family fled to Denmark. Imagine overcoming this to reach her heights. 🔥💪🏻
A very important #strike is going on in #Sweden. If #Tesla wins in a heavily unionized country (with a very right wing government), it sends waves across the planet.
"[Some Tesla] mechanics began their strike in October after their employer, a Tesla subsidiary in Sweden, announced that it would not recognize their union... The industrial action soon spread to dockworkers… and electricians who stopped maintenance work for the carmaker”
Following the blockade by Swedish dockworkers in support of the #Tesla mechanics' #strike in #Sweden, there had been speculation that the company would try to unload in Danish shipyards.
But IF Metall asked for support from #Denmark’s largest trade #union, which announced a sympathy #strike on Tuesday.
