Diplomacy and International Relations

Listen to this episode where I look at how Denmark is hitting NATO's 2% target three years early, has troops in Latvia, and is funnelling billions into Ukraine and all of it under a foreign policy strategy explicitly branded "pragmatic idealism."

Listen to this episode on Greenland, US and the religious current underneath it all.
When Donald Trump promises that Greenland will be “under US control” before his term ends, the story is usually told as one about minerals, military bases, and raw geopolitics. This episode asks whether it is really about something far more sacred: competing religions of sovereignty.
We unfold three narratives: Greenland’s long struggle for self‑government and the right to independence under the Self‑Government Act. Denmark’s guilt‑ and responsibility‑driven insistence that “Greenland is not for sale” and that only Greenlanders can decide the island’s future. And an American frontier mythology that treats territory as destiny, casting the Arctic as yet another frontier for national salvation.
Along the way, we look at how conscription, military exercises, and bases are used as symbolic rituals of statehood – not just as instruments of deterrence. This isn’t a real‑estate deal; it’s a clash between sacred stories about who has the right to define Greenland’s future.
