Denmark will buy additional medium-range air-to-air missiles for its F-35 fighter jets and invest in better Arctic gear for troops, as part of a broader push to strengthen national and NATO defence commitments, the Defence Ministry said on Thursday. “This is another step in the accelerated build-up of the Danish Armed Forces’ combat power,” Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said in a statement. According to the Defence Ministry, the additional missiles will boost combat power and what it described as “credible deterrence.”Alongside the missile purchase, the ministry said it was also acquiring extra winter equipment and supplies. Commander of the Danish Air Force, Major General Jan Dam, said the additional missiles will reinforce Denmark’s “high level of readiness” both for the Kingdom and for its allies. “With additional missiles, we are strengthening the F-35’s operational effectiveness and our ability to solve tasks both nationally and within the framework of NATO,” he said.

On Thursday, British police arrested Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor , formerly Prince Andrew, on suspicion of misconduct in public office, after accusations that he shared confidential information with Jeffrey Epstein while serving as a British trade envoy. Andrew’s brother, King Charles III, confirmed the arrest in a statement.

Carney had already welcomed two former Conservative MPs to the government side of the House of Commons — Chris d'Entremont in November, then Michael Ma in December. "Mark Carney is trying to seize a costly Liberal majority government that Canadians voted against in the last election through dirty backroom deals," he wrote in a social-media post. Cynically, one might have wondered whether Poilievre's recent enthusiasm for collaboration was inspired, at least in part, by a simple desire to avoid an election. As evidenced by the dismissive, even angry, messages posted to social-media by Conservative MPs on Wednesday, another defection might act to galvanize some Conservatives. But it seems that even among the remaining Conservative MPs there is a certain independent streak, of a sort that has lately been causing Poilievre different problems.
