New publication - my first one in German 🇩🇪 In a new special issue about Grönland, I've written about the historic and present interest of the US. www.bpb.de/shop/zeitsch...

Forrest står eleverne fra Arktisk Basisuddannelse – men bag dem står hele Forsvaret. Hæren, Søværnet, Flyvevåbnet og Specialstyrkerne har den seneste tid trænet i Grønland - bl.a. med fokus på beskyttelse af kritisk infrastruktur. Sammen beskytter vi Kongeriget Danmark. #VærdAtKæmpeFor #Greenland

My hood looks extraordinarily good today. Happy national day to my friends in/from Greenland 🇬🇱 Kalaallit inuiattut ullorsiornissinni pilluaritsi!

When news outlets seek expertise on Greenland, who do they reach out to? In a commentary with @arcticinstitute.bsky.social , I argue that the Arctic requires a diversity of expertise to garner understanding of any issue, specifically regarding Greenland. www.thearcticinstitute.org/who-expert-g...

Meget glad for, at jeg endnu engang må være med i podcasten Teleskop til børn og unge. Denne gang om Trumps 100 dage som præsident - selvfølgelig med særligt fokus på Grønland 🇬🇱 Anbefaler alle børn og barnlige sjæle at dykke ned i Huligennems lydunivers 🤿 🫧 dererhuligennem.dk/serier/teles...

"at least three issues rank higher than Greenland on Trump’s security political to-do list for 2025: 1) A peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, 2) A peace agreement between Israel and Hammas, 3) Increased deterrence of Iran." Well that's a relief 🤔 www.thearcticinstitute.org/white-house-...

Can’t think of anything better to do on a Friday evening 🤩 Countdown to Greenland, the Faroe Islands and Denmark’s chairship of @ArcticCouncil.bsky.social #TGIF

📬 Today’s extra publication by @marcjacobsen.bsky.social: “Is the White House calculating the Cost of taking over #Greenland?” 🇬🇱 🔗 Find the full commentary below! ⤵️ www.thearcticinstitute.org/white-house-...

“Mr. Trump’s advisers have discussed using advertising and social media campaigns to sway public opinion on the island [Greenland], according to another person briefed on the matter.” // My question: does this have a covert dimension? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

According to @washingtonpost.com, the White House is calculating the cost of taking over Greenland. If true, we are witnessing Trump’s most concrete effort to follow words by actions. Here’s what we should pay attention to www.thearcticinstitute.org/white-house-... via @arcticinstitute.bsky.social

Det Hvide Hus regner på, hvad det koster at overtage kontrollen med Grønland. Det skrev @washingtonpost.com forleden. Artiklen indeholder nogle interessante detaljer, som fortjener en ekstra tanke. Det skriver jeg om i @altingetdk.bsky.social www.altinget.dk/arktis/artik...

Spændende møde i @folketinget.dk i dag, hvor Frederik Harhoff @sdu.dk og jeg havde fornøjelsen af at bidrage med ekspertindlæg. Mange tak til Aaja Chemnitz for invitationen og til Grønlandsudvalget for de mange gode spørgsmål. Det var en fornøjelse.

Hey! In the middle of this Trump-generated media tsunami on Greenland, Kristian Søby Kristensen and I managed to get som really, really topical research out in International Political Sociology! academic.oup.com/ips/article-...

Har Storbritannien forkøbsret til Grønland, hvis Danmark vil sælge? Det har tidligere Grønlandsminister, Tom Høyem, længe påstået. DR's podcast 'Bakspejl' bringer nu nyt i sagen. Hør de interessante detaljer i dagens afsnit, hvor jeg også giver mit besyv med: www.dr.dk/lyd/special-...

Deutsche Welle has put together a nice explainer video about Greenland’s geopolitics, the international interests, and the development of Danish-Greenlandic relations. It was a pleasure contributing. The English version is available here: youtu.be/mQrRY9SY_9A?...

Today is the day, my book "Arctic State Identity: Geography, History, and Geopolitical Relations" is *officially* published! 🙀🙌 Available from @manchesterup.bsky.social: manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526153906/ #Arctic #Geopolitics #ArcticIdentity

A pleasure contributing to @foreignpolicy.com’s article about great power competition in Greenland and the Arctic. I mainly focused on the (potential) role of the EU which shows great interest in further cultivating bilateral relations with Greenland. foreignpolicy.com/2025/01/27/g...

Many years ago, I had an unforgettable time as an exchange student in Japan. With in mind, it was extra fun to talk with TBS News about Donald Trump's strong interest in Greenland - a topic that, however, doesn't bring much fun to our part of the world. newsdig.tbs.co.jp/articles/-/1...

AAAAA Vores bog 'Greenland in Arctic Security' har fået en flot og veltimet anmeldelse i Altinget. www.altinget.dk/arktis/artik... Anmeldelsen er bag betalingsmur, men det er bogen til gengæld ikke. Læs den kvit og frit via @uofmpress.bsky.social —> press.umich.edu/Books/G/Gree...

In a new report by @erep.csis.org, I examine how Greenland positions itself within changing Arctic security dynamics, bringing new threats and opportunities to the Self-Government. Thanks for the invitation @ottosvendsen.bsky.social and @maxbergmann.bsky.social www.csis.org/analysis/def...

An actual Danish national security expert (@marcjacobsen.bsky.social) provides analysis of Greenland situation!

@marcjacobsen.bsky.social examines Greenland’s 2024 foreign, security, and defense policy and argues that increased international interest in the territory has positioned 🇬🇱 favorably in its quest for both short-term economic and political gains and its longer-term ambitions for independence.

It’s a very good book!!

Couldn't resist the temptation of promoting our book during the past few days' many interviews. Printed copies can be bought in online book stores near you, while a free(!) online version is available via @uofmpress.bsky.social --> press.umich.edu/Books/G/Gree...

Spoke with FRANCE 24 about how Greenland may use the amplified American interest to boost its economy and gain more foreign policy authority - two elements that are central to the vision of further enhancing self-determination. www.france24.com/fr/europe/20...

BBC Global News Podcast challenged me to explain, in just two minutes, what the U.S. main interests in Greenland are. Hear my attempt (11:55-->): www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... Basically it's about Greenland's geostrategic location and mineral wealth.

According to multiple local sources, Donald Trump Jr.’s people bribed homeless people to act as MAGA supporters during his visit to Greenland. As far as I can tell, this has not yet been picked up by American media. www.dr.dk/nyheder/udla...

Trumps tilnærmelser til Grønland påvirker dynamikkerne i Rigsfællesskabet og Arktis. Det dækker alverdens medier, men @videnskab.dk gør det en tand grundigere end de fleste. Derfor er giver jeg gladeligt mit besyv med i denne artikel. videnskab.dk/kultur-samfu...

Talked to BBC Newshour about Greenland’s and the Faroe Islands’ more prominent positions in King Frederik's new coat of arms. Not a reaction to Trump’s recent statements, but still interesting how the royal family frames the kingdom anew. The interview (18:50–>): www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

While I was stuck in the holiday traffic, Trump’s statement about the ownership and control of Greenland hit the media, thereby challenging a close ally and my work-life balance. I talked to a handful of media, i.a. @nytimes.com —> www.nytimes.com/2024/12/23/u... Merry Christmas!

Hybrid warfare against Europe is here to stay and is likely to intensify in the foreseeable future. Taking Russia as an example, there is currently no incentive for them to stop. They can continue pressuring Europe with no real punishment or consequences.
