Drone Scares, Politics, and Optimism: This week’s episode unpacks a tense but hopeful stretch of news in Denmark: the wave of drone activity that shut down airports and raised questions about hybrid attacks, the appointment of hardline politician Rasmus Stoklund as the new Immigration Minister and what that could mean for internationals, and the National Bank’s unexpected forecast of economic growth despite major job cuts. Guiding the conversation are Katie and Kalpita, internationals who have lived in Denmark for years, reflecting on what these developments mean for daily life and why there are still real reasons to stay calm, optimistic, and engaged.
