And why I am switching balances from the most noble and important – but momentarily meaningless – job to something more rewarding… February 1, 2019 Just yesterday, I posted this extremely important and modest appeal – the Basel Appeal – on our foundation’s homepage, The Transnational, here.

Dansk Institut for Internationale Studier (DIIS) udgav den 27. november 2018 en slags analyse af Flemming Splidsboel Hansen med titlen “Russisk desinformation på skærmen. Benægt. Afled. Giv andre skylden.” Om den skrev jeg på min facebook profilside følgende kommentar: “Vi er mange, der nu venter spændt på en lignende analyse af USA’s og andre NATO-medlemmers tilsvarende måde […]
