When one company both decides the rules and scores the profit, t…

The DSA is a historic step in that direction. But the work doesn't stop there. Europe is under pressure from foreign tech giants and from foreign governments. But they shouldn't be allowed to control our digital lives. For too…

United response to recent Russian violations of the EU Member States’ airspace and critical infrastructure (debate)

I think it is clear to everyone that the war has evolved over time. First it was Ukraine that was hit, and we in Denmark have spent an incredible amount of money to support Ukraine, because they are actually our protection and our security. That's why we need it.

Because when the planes stand still and the airspace closes, people feel that the threat is close. Bu…
