"We must view this as a manifestation of what we see as a higher level of tension in the Baltic Sea," the TV Channel quoted Danish Defense Minister Morten Bodskov as saying. He added, however, that there was no direct threat to Denmark.

As Danish Foreign Minister Jeppe Kofod claimed, the Russian warship had violated twice the kingdom's territorial waters during the past night. "This is a gross and inadmissible provocation," he wrote in a Twitter post.
The Danish foreign minister said that the Russian ambassador to Denmark had been urgently summoned to the kingdom's Foreign Ministry.

Figurines would not stand up for an old lady getting beaten up by a 10 year old. But the people in each country still vote these figurines in to power. Should we not really blame the voters ?
What we have is a socialist style "democracy" where you are only allowed to vote for party approved candidates who all hail from the same academic and corporate classes.
