For those interested. Here is Martins story. And Hans', and Dennis' and Renés ....
"I held a dying young Afghan man in my arms.
Time has healed some of my wounds, but I still struggle.
I no longer have nightmares, and I am not suicidal, but I never sleep very heavily. I wake up easily, and I hear everything. I am easily startled. I find it difficult to concentrate on more than one thing at a time," says the later.

@jimsciutto This is Martins story for everyone to read.
"I was always the guy who stood up against the schoolyard bullies because people have the right to live in freedom and safety.
Someone has to protect that right, someone like me."

@BenWallace70@BBCr4today@TimesRadio@FT How would that clarity look - and how would it be backed up by action, more importantly?
This danish journalist asks you
Thank you.
The particular setting of V. Putin's framing here would be a reasonable overall frame for the interview.
It might be more appropriate to continue the conversation in private messages or via email - [email protected] - to schedule and agree on a setting and other details.
But the main question would be:
1. Despite the ongoing war in Ukraine, why should Europe consider it common sense that Russia will not attack another European country?
But common sense - again seen from the West - is that a country that invades a neighbour and attempts to annexe parts of it against UN recognised borders might very well do that again to other neighbours.
I am curious by nature, especially about Russia. If you would like to explain the common sense as you see it to me in an interview, I would highly appreciate it!

@clausmat1 Denne tråd fra Hans Kristensen var et godt udgangspunkt for mig i går. Men man må nok forbeholde sig bekymringen for at tro, at Trump reelt tager den mest drastiske vej, hans ordre kan læses. Det er vel sket før. https://t.co/xU4xkXXNpD
1/n - Trump says something about nuclear weapons tests...It’s hard to know what he means. As usual, he’s unclear, all over the map, and wrong.
1. The United States has more Nuclear Weapons than any other country.
Wrong. Russia has more nuclear weapons than the United States.
@clausmat1 Jeg er skeptisk overfor et scenarium, hvor nogen står i spidsen for Indien - om det så er Vesten eller Kina. Jeg fik dette fra @thorstenbenner til en artikel i går:
Would you be interested in attaching a comment to the development for Danish media? Perhaps tying the Greenland approach to American strategy elsewhere?

Denmark has a sluggish grenade-problem ...
Denmark gets a lot of praise for its wide ranging, extensive, rapid support for Ukraine. But in the meantime the nations own rearmament continues with patches of sluggish pace .
* It's been 900 days the government made a decision to get ammo-production restarted in Denmark. 0 grenades have been made in Denmark since - not surprising since the building process hasn't even started.
* It's been 178 days since the def. minister then called for lightning speed acquisition of extra grenades from abroad because the waiting for a factory continued. 0 extra grenades have been bought as a result of the decision - not surprising since the tender hasn't even been sent out yet.
@nikolajrytgaard is relentless on this agenda.
Perhaps the words from Minna Ålander in a Europe Dispatch-Substack within @PhillipsPOBrien universe still rings true: "In Europe, late is nevertheless better than never, so my advice to all European countries is: if you can’t be like Finland, then be like Denmark."
But how late is too late?
Glædelig dag 900, hvor vi kan fortælle, at regeringen heller ikke har bestilt de hurtige hastegranater, der skulle fylde hylderne op og give forsvaret nok at skyde med, mens vi venter på Krudten.
Køb-køb-køb er blevet til vent-vent-vent, lyder kritikken. https://t.co/nEHgaO8lGc
My comments for @Henrik_Hare@jyllandsposten: Progress can be achieved if #Russia starts to see #Ukraine as an independent country, makes sensible proposals for #peace and is willing to compromise. The world needs to support Ukraine+show strength to Russia

I talked with @Henrik_Hare from @jyllandsposten about China's extensive and growing role in Russia's war against Ukraine -- in a great company with a fellow-analyst and friend @vtchakarova . Both of us agree that Sino-Russian relationship is way too strong and deep to break anytime soon. (Machine translation ⬇️)
"So how important is China for Russia to continue waging war for a fourth year and believe it can win? If you ask China analyst Sari Arho Havrén, affiliated with the think tank @RUSI_org , the answer is:
"Big. In material aid, military aid and other aid that sustains Russia's economy. But also internationally, because Xi gives Russia value in the international arena by showing that Russia is not isolated. Without China, it would be difficult for Russia to continue the war," she says, emphasizing that China also benefits from the relationship.

@russianforces Well the S-300 have proven an offensive threat at the very least.
Not that I think it undermines your overall point, but it would be relevant for the frontline-states to know what’s going on?
