126 - The Norwegian Defense Intelligence Service assesses that there is no increased military threat to Denmark



27 Sept 2022 - Denmark's Prime Minister on the gas leaks: 

Talk about deliberate actions

Both Sweden's and Denmark's prime ministers believe the gas leaks are deliberate actions, but deny that it is an attack on the countries.

[MRT: So both do not consider them a "sabotage". Following the incident there was a huge verbal information war about how the event should be framed - it has huge legal implications - here.] 

Nevertheless, the Norwegian Defense Intelligence Service assesses that there is no increased military threat to Denmark, says the Prime Minister.

[MRT: How could he know and asset the situation better than the DK secret services and other governments? What did the Norwegian Prime minister knew what others did not? Well, this investigation shows that NOR had key crucial intel which it shared with the USA on 19-09-2022 - see here.]  

Not an accident
Foreign Minister Jeppe Kofod, Defense Minister Morten Bødskov and Climate, Energy and Supply Minister Dan Jørgensen are also present at the press conference.

The nature of the leaks and their size indicate that it cannot be an accident, says Minister of Supply Dan Jørgensen.

The ministers will not say anything about what they believe is the motive behind the sabotage of the pipeline.

Increases preparedness

Defense Minister Morten Bødskov says that preparedness around Bornholm is now being increased.

The Norwegian Defense Forces have had a patrol ship in the area since yesterday.

[MRT: Which ship, when did it arrive there and what movements it had, note that there were many naval operations in the area whole SEptember - see other posts: here

The government cooperates with Denmark, Norway, Finland, Germany and the USA, says Andersson.

Andersson states that on Tuesday she spoke on the phone with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg about the matter.

She says that Norway has notified Sweden of increased drone activity in the North Sea.
