Syns heller ikke det er superstas at eldste skal opp til Finnmark og inn i tjeneste som jeg tror handler mest om beredskap om russerne kommer. Menmen, vi kommer ikke så langt. Jeg tror ikke det. (Men kom på at han skal få med seg jodtabletter)

Ikke veldig vanlig at de flyr militærhelioptrene over Oslo, egentlig? Kom to over hodet mitt i sted. (Ikke det vanlige politihelikopteret som henger her støtt og stadig)

Det kan ha noe med Taliban å gjøre da.

Det virket litt som om det kunne tø litt opp etter møtet med Macron, men det ble kanskje ingenting? De to landene har jo lange diplomatiske tradisjoner.

The post-WWII international order is coming to an end, and the global system is gradually returning to a state of harsher and more explicit Great-Power competition. Russia is standing ready on Ukraine’s borders, preparing an invasion. At the same time posing unrealistic demands on NATO, European and neighbouring countries’ security structures.
On the other hand, the rise of China, mostly at the expense of US superiority, is shaping global politics and will ultimately shift the entire global structure. China and Russia are both on a quest to expand their spheres of influence, and are actively contesting the US, the Transatlantic Alliance, the European Union, and western values.
At the moment we are standing amid a tense situation in Ukraine that already has far reaching consequences. The outcome of the current conflict will dictate the future of our geopolitical security landscape. Our distinguished speakers will discuss the return of Great-Power rivalry and the US’ future role in European and transatlantic security in light of current events.
