[00:00:00] years, which is both Save the Children and a unclear signal is being sent the authorities' recommendation, when the Danish Health Authority recommends that young people under 18 do not drink alcohol, while as 16-year-olds they are allowed to buy various alcohol products. Instead, the association wants to send a clear and unambiguous message to young people and their parents that alcohol is not for children. We are going to Funen, where you, Sine Voldas, have gone to the Efterskole. We are here at Vejstrup Efterskole, and breakfast has just gone down, there is cleaning up around us here, and Jacob hugs you as the principal here at the efterskole, and just before, when there were a lot of young people around us, you explained why we have come here today, it's about that it preferably should not, it should not be possible for these 16-year-olds, 17-year-olds to buy alcohol before they turn 18, there was good booing around here among the good 250 young people here at the school, but you think it's a good idea, why? Well, there is booing, that's a signal that it means a lot to them, and in reality to be allowed to have some parties, and we actually think that young people should. This is about that there needs to be, it's good to have some frameworks to hold parties within, and when we have a health authority in Denmark that comes with some recommendations, we also think the legislation should fit that, it's a clear and unambiguous framework for students and parents and school and for society, so yes, it's a good idea, well, I'll go straight over here to some young people here, namely, who go here to the school, you two do that here, um, yes, Jacob, he says it's a good idea, Ellen, what do you think about this, that is, you are 16, you could, you can go out and buy a beer or a breezer or yes, alcohol with a low percentage in it, if you could only buy it when you were 18, what then um, now I'm used to being able to buy alcohol as a 16-year-old, so I think it would be perhaps a little strange also, because we have this party culture already as 16-year-olds in Denmark, so yes, I think I would get it in other ways maybe, because I'm so used to buying it now, yes, and Frej, well, we talked a little earlier here that... we were standing and we were going on TV-Avisen here, and you told me that you had been looking forward to turning 16, because then you were going to buy some alcohol here, but if that was not possible, and for some of you, would you then not wait a bit with drinking, that is the intention with this proposal here, um, yes, I think we would, but at the same time, I still think one could get one's parents to buy either or yes acquaintances or someone else who was older and then still be able to get hold of it, because it is not that is, it is not only now one drinks, but it has always been like that, right, but just here at the end, if it became difficult. a little if it became or difficult, if it became illegal simply, so you can only buy it when you are that age, would you then not postpone this with, that you drink, that is, wait until you are a little more mature and and perhaps better able to control it? uh, yes, absolutely, I think I would drink less 100%, but I personally already started drinking as a 14-year-old, and then it was not possible to buy alcohol, so I got uh either parents or siblings to buy it for me, um, but yes, it might reduce it a little also in this fishing culture we have in Denmark, and what about you? just at the end, yes, well, it might put a damper on how much you drink, yes, I think so, good, so the message here from Vejstrup efterskole, it is that, uh, the young people can see the point in it, but they would be sorry if it only... became legal when they turned 18, but it might put a damper on their alcohol consumption, and hello Cecilie, shall we not look at the weather, we certainly shall, it's a bit gray when you look out the windows, it's only on Bornholm that you have a little blue sky and sun to look at this morning, in the rest of the country it's a bit good, as you can also see on the map here, and up through Jutland, well, there can actually be a lot of haze and fog in the late morning hours, so you should be extra careful if you are going out in the next couple of hours. This cloudy weather will continue most of the day, on the other hand, it's nice and warm out there, we can actually reach about 17-18 degrees in many places, some places also a little warmer than that. When we get to the late afternoon hours, well, then it starts to bring in some rain from the west, it's a front that will pass over the country, and it will give a little more continuous rain, especially towards the evening and night hours. Initially, it will especially be in Jutland that one will enjoy this water, but as the night progresses, the rest of the country will also experience rain. No one can win the war, a continuation will only lead to the total destruction of both nations. This is the warning now from Zelensky's right hand, but is it true? Or does the warning come now because Russia, with new jet drones and ballistic missiles, is bombing Ukrainian cities both day and night. This is the war's 24 hours right now on DR. TV. Texas, the Republican crown jewel, is currently on the verge of becoming Democratic. And if Trump loses the ruby-red state, well, that could lead to a shocking defeat in the midterm elections. So now Trump promises 500 dollars to all voters if the Republicans win. But is it too late? And what is at stake for the party? This is Trump's USA, which you can find right now. Deep in a forest, a striking group of Americans are preparing for battle, they are socialists and communists and fear Donald Trump and the MAGA movement Trump's Moving Enemies Horizon right now on DRTV and tonight 21:25 on DR1. Oh how wild it is. Well, it's out. Completely, we have traveled into the incomprehensibly large country, is it like here that you should be, yes, is it that, not to have all of China explained, but to get a little closer, so you feel left out if you're not on tiktok and streaming, yes okay, and perhaps to debunk a few prejudices, as Danes we can probably easily get lost in thinking our system is perfect, and it will just work, it could never work in China, because we know too little and perhaps fear too much. Anne and Anders in China on Sunday on DRTV and DR1. Are you ready to solve my riddle? We are in Narnia now, we go through the wardrobe, and then worlds open up. Two teams of famous Danes embark on new historical adventures filled with tasks and clues. You got it Rasmus. Damn it. The fewer pieces we have to deal with, the better. Who is it? It's Mikkel, you shouldn't say you're Mikkel, for crying out loud. New season of The Hunt for Danish History. Oh, it's like a Paradise Hotel kind of thing. Damn, what a wild story. Now on DRTV, and tonight at 8 PM on DR1. [00:00:04] and then I can add, it has not been possible for Snapchat or Roblox to answer our [00:00:07] questions, it says, while TikTok has not had the opportunity to be interviewed, [00:00:11] Meta refers to Instagram's new team profiles, [00:00:15] which set limits on who can contact them and what content [00:00:19] form of confrontational behavior, but this is they can access. Minister for Digitization Christina [00:00:22] Elond writes to us that the survey confirms that [00:00:24] the tech giants are not responsible for adults. Therefore, I am also glad that we are now [00:00:28] introducing an age limit for social media, so that we can shield [00:00:32] children from the completely monstrous content found on many of [00:00:35] the platforms. This alone does not solve the problem, but it is an important step forward. [00:00:48] that it confirms to us that [00:00:49] the Russians are [00:01:07] Good morning, we are starting a news update from TV-Avisen. A [00:01:11] Russian frigate has fired at one of the air force's helicopters with [00:01:14] flares. Flares are pyrotechnics that are normally [00:01:17] used as an attention signal at [00:01:20] sea. But according to the defense, it was fired at one of their Fenik [00:01:24] helicopters, and the incident happened yesterday in international waters in [00:01:27] the Baltic Sea off Gæssa. This was stated by the defense in a [00:01:31] press release. [00:01:35] These are archive recordings of one of the defense's Fenik helicopters on [00:01:39] an exercise. The two flares were fired while [00:01:42] the helicopter was conducting a routine photographic coverage of [00:01:46] the Russian frigate in international waters off [00:01:49] Gæssa. According to the defense, one flare passed close by [00:01:53] the helicopter, and Defense Minister Jeppe Bro views [00:01:56] the incident with great seriousness. He says this to us in an [00:01:59] interview here this morning, well, we take it very seriously, that is, it is [00:02:03] serious when a Danish military helicopter [00:02:06] is fired upon in international waters, which is monitoring a Russian [00:02:10] frigate, and what is the degree of seriousness, is this a [00:02:13] hybrid attack? Well, you can call it a hybrid attack, that is, [00:02:17] flares, i.e. pyrotechnics, are fired at the helicopter, and that is of course [00:02:21] serious, and first and foremost, it is important that nothing happened to the pilots and [00:02:24] personnel on board, and secondly, nothing happened to [00:02:27] the helicopter, but of course it is serious because they are carrying out a [00:02:31] task that we do all the time, namely keeping an eye on what is happening around [00:02:35] Denmark, and and we will continue to do so. Try to [00:02:38] describe, what does such a helicopter do, could it have provoked? Well, [00:02:42] the helicopter takes pictures, for example, and and looks at what is happening with a [00:02:46] warship that is close to Denmark. There is nothing unusual in that, that is the task [00:02:49] the defense has, and that is the task the defense performs, and it will continue to perform [00:02:53] it in the future, so I will not speculate on what, what caused the reaction from the [00:02:57] Russian side, other than that it is at least a [00:03:00] pattern that is new compared to what we have seen before, it is also an expression [00:03:03] of the fact that Russian risk-taking is increasing. Yes, [00:03:07] what does that say about our relationship with Russia? Yes, it says that [00:03:10] it confirms to us that the Russians are active in relation [00:03:13] to the West, and that they are also pushing the boundaries in relation to the actions they [00:03:17] take. Is this the worst attack that has been [00:03:20] from Russia against Denmark? Well, I will not go into [00:03:23] categorizing that, we take it seriously, and that is also why we [00:03:27] are summoning the Russian ambassador for a conversation, so... there will be a [00:03:30] conversation, what other consequences should this have? Well, [00:03:34] it is clear that we would like to send a very clear signal to [00:03:38] the Russians that we take this deeply seriously, in the best case, it is [00:03:41] also an expression of really bad unprofessional seamanship, because [00:03:45] there are many ways to contact that helicopter if one wished [00:03:48] it, and and then of course also that we will continue [00:03:52] our work, that goes without saying, but is it enough to tell them that we take this [00:03:56] seriously? No, but we are not alone, that is, we are, we are [00:04:00] always closely coordinated with both our neighboring countries and our allies, [00:04:04] and we also see a pattern across Europe, where the Russians are pushing the [00:04:07] boundaries for the activities they carry out, and of course, we [00:04:10] follow that very closely. What will you then do in [00:04:13] NATO? Well, I will not do anything other than what I am now [00:04:17] telling you to do, namely summon the ambassador, ensure that we are closely [00:04:21] coordinated, ensure that we continue the activities we are doing and keep [00:04:24] an eye on the Russian activity that exists, but it is clear that we view [00:04:28] it with seriousness when the Russians push the boundaries as they are doing here. [00:04:32] And what happened in the waters off Gæssa, that is not normal, our [00:04:35] defense correspondent says. It is a very [00:04:39] unusual incident, that is, this is a step up the [00:04:42] escalation ladder, it is such that particularly Russian [00:04:46] warships and the Danish units, which have the task of [00:04:49] keeping an eye on them in the waters. It is such that Denmark [00:04:53] as a state really wants to have a physical look at all [00:04:56] warships that sail through or close to Danish waters. This happens [00:05:00] with the help of planes, with the help of ships or in this [00:05:04] case helicopters, and one is simply out there physically and [00:05:08] looking at them, and one has previously observed that Russian [00:05:11] warships have... pointed in the direction of Danish [00:05:14] units with live weapons, for example, one has experienced [00:05:18] being pointed at with target acquisition radar, that is [00:05:22] such a military instrument where one can hear at the other end when one is [00:05:25] illuminated by it, as it is called, so there have been [00:05:29] examples of a [00:05:31] still with the firing of a form of [00:05:35] firearm, that is, not really a firearm, but a form of something that can shoot and fly [00:05:39] through the air, that is, a step up the escalation ladder. [00:05:42] One flare flew close past the helicopter, [00:05:46] fortunately no one was hurt, could it have gone [00:05:49] wrong? [00:05:52] Yes, it is a risky situation, it is like when [00:05:56] the military itself trains with these signal flares or flares [00:06:00] or whatever it is, that is, there is a relatively large [00:06:03] safety distance, especially when there are flying units in the air, simply [00:06:06] because such a flare, which is essentially a [00:06:09] fireball that moves through the air at high [00:06:12] speed, yes, that is something one very, very reluctantly wants to see come close to [00:06:16] either helicopters, planes or drones, simply because it [00:06:20] can risk and go very, very wrong, so it is a [00:06:23] risky, it is a risky situation here, and it is something [00:06:27] that certainly attracts attention, we do not know how close or how [00:06:30] far apart the units have been, nor do we know how close the one [00:06:34] flare passed by the Danish helicopter, but we do know at least [00:06:38] that it is close enough that it can cause a [00:06:41] strong reaction. from Defense Minister Jeppe Brous, as we hear [00:06:45] here, and we have asked the Russian embassy in Denmark for a [00:06:48] comment from Ambassador Vladimir Barbin: It has not yet [00:06:51] succeeded. Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen writes on X: [00:06:55] the incident is, I quote, completely unacceptable. We [00:06:59] are also trying to get a comment from [00:07:00] the Prime Minister's Office. [00:07:04] Two out of three children and young people between nine and 17 years old have in the past [00:07:08] year been exposed to digital infringements or other [00:07:11] unpleasant experiences on the internet. This is shown by a new [00:07:14] survey from Save the Children and TrygFonden, which maps [00:07:18] the extent of 12 different forms of digital [00:07:21] infringements. Most often it's on Snapchat, where there are random [00:07:25] people who add me, and sometimes I say yes to it to see if it's someone I know, [00:07:29] and then it just ends up with them sending nude pictures and all sorts of things. There are also a lot of people who have contacted [00:07:33] me, and then there are also just videos like dead animals and [00:07:36] car accidents and stuff. I was contacted by some of my [00:07:39] friends' friends, um, and then it started. writing a [00:07:42] lot of unpleasant things and such, I didn't know [00:07:46] them, so I didn't quite know what to do. The [00:07:49] digital violations and unpleasant online experiences range from serious [00:07:53] violations of law such as grooming attempts from adult strangers, to harsh [00:07:57] comments and harassment from peers. Save the Children has [00:08:00] previously conducted similar surveys, and here the number has increased [00:08:03] massively from 42% back in 2021 to now [00:08:07] 66% this year. The experiences can have [00:08:10] serious consequences. It shifts children and young people's [00:08:14] ideas about their own worth, what others are worth. It can challenge [00:08:18] their ideas about what boundaries they have, and because some of what [00:08:21] the survey shows is that children increasingly view some [00:08:25] of this as a given when being online, we are actually also [00:08:28] concerned about the gradual shifting of their boundaries [00:08:31] associated with it. The survey's [00:08:34] results are serious, says Save the Children. It [00:08:38] is such that it is actually the majority of children and young people in Denmark [00:08:42] between nine and 17 years old who within the last year have had a very [00:08:45] unpleasant experience online, and that is everything from [00:08:49] adults reaching out and doing something to them, for example sending [00:08:53] intimate pictures, some trying to extort them, some talking [00:08:56] very rudely to them, or they for example see a video of [00:08:59] someone being killed or of animals being abused, I [00:09:03] actually think that most adults, even if we know that it [00:09:06] is hardcore, what is happening in children and [00:09:10] teenagers' feeds, even if we know it, I still think we would be [00:09:13] surprised, would be surprised if we knew how wild it [00:09:17] actually is, and that calls for action from us [00:09:20] adults, and us [00:09:24] adults and that action, where should it come from, is it politicians, [00:09:28] is it providers, who is it? Well, [00:09:32] there is absolutely no indication that the tech giants [00:09:35] themselves will take on this responsibility, on the contrary, they make money by [00:09:39] having a design that steals children and young people's [00:09:42] time and attention, and also some content that is [00:09:45] deeply unpleasant, they have had every opportunity to take on [00:09:49] the responsibility, they have not done so, and therefore we of course need [00:09:53] political regulation, now there will be a [00:09:56] law that you must be 15 years old to be on social [00:10:00] media, that is a good first step, there is also a lot else [00:10:03] that needs to be done, for example a ban on [00:10:06] retention mechanisms, we also need a ban on harvesting [00:10:10] data on children and young people under 18 years old, it is [00:10:14] such that childhood today is so extremely commercialized, because [00:10:18] many of their hours are actually spent being exposed to [00:10:22] advertisements, and then we as parents can [00:10:25] of course also do more than we do, some of what we at [00:10:28] Save the Children know is effective, is if one in the classes makes common [00:10:32] agreements that in this class, we observe the age limits [00:10:36] on the various digital platforms and postpone the first [00:10:39] smartphone until the child is 13 years old, which is both [00:10:43] Save the Children's and the authorities' recommendation. It has not been [00:10:46] possible for Snapchat or Roblox to answer our questions, it says, [00:10:50] while TikTok has not had the opportunity to be interviewed, they say, [00:10:53] and Meta refers to Instagram's new team profiles, which set [00:10:57] limits on who can contact them, and what content they can [00:11:01] access. Minister for Digitization Christina [00:11:03] Elund writes to us that the survey confirms that [00:11:06] the tech giants are not responsible for adults. Therefore, I am also glad that we [00:11:10] are now introducing an age limit for social media, so that we can shield [00:11:14] children from the completely monstrous content found on many of [00:11:17] the platforms. This alone does not solve the problem, but it is an important step [00:11:21] forward. [00:11:25] The US Supreme Court rejects Trump's attempt to tighten [00:11:29] the rules for mail-in ballots. In the spring, Trump signed a [00:11:32] decree that, among other things, required that ballots only be sent to [00:11:36] voters who were on special lists of mail-in voters in [00:11:39] the individual states. At the same time, the president wanted the envelopes to be equipped with [00:11:43] tracking, but the Supreme Court has now rejected this. [00:11:46] The case is of great importance for the midterm elections in November, as [00:11:49] almost a third of American voters vote by mail. This [00:11:53] is according to AP. [00:11:56] "A NATO fighter jet has shot down a drone in Lithuanian airspace, the country's [00:12:00] president confirms on X. It is now unclear where the drone comes [00:12:03] from, but the president writes, citing in light of [00:12:07] Russia's escalating aggression against [00:12:10] Ukraine, such preparedness is of crucial importance [00:12:13] for our [00:12:14] region." [00:12:18] The Association of Efterskolerne wants to raise the age limit for alcohol sales [00:12:22] to 18 years. This is the message in the open letter that [00:12:25] the association has sent to Minister of Health Ida Auken. [00:12:29] The Efterskole Association believes that a unclear signal is being sent [00:12:32] when the Danish Health Authority recommends that young people under 18 [00:12:36] do not drink alcohol, while as 16-year-olds they are allowed to buy [00:12:39] various alcohol products. Instead, [00:12:42] the association wants to send a clear and unambiguous message to young people and their [00:12:45] parents that alcohol is not for [00:12:48] children. We are going to Funen, where you, Sine Voldas, have gone [00:12:52] to the Efterskole. [00:12:55] We are here at Vejstrup Efterskole, and breakfast has just gone down, there is [00:12:59] cleaning up around us here, and Jacob [00:13:02] hugs you as the principal here at the efterskole, and just before, when [00:13:05] there were a lot of young people around us, you explained why we have come here [00:13:08] today, it's about that it preferably should not, it should not be possible for these [00:13:12] 16-year-olds, 17-year-olds to buy alcohol before they turn 18, there was good booing [00:13:16] around here among the good 250 young people here at [00:13:20] the school, but you think it's a good idea, why? Well, there [00:13:23] is booing, that's a signal that it means a lot to them, and in reality to be allowed to have some [00:13:27] parties, and we actually think that young people should. This is [00:13:31] about that there needs to be, it's good to have some frameworks to hold parties within, [00:13:35] and when we have a health authority in Denmark that comes with some recommendations, we also think [00:13:38] the legislation should fit that, it's a clear and unambiguous framework for students and parents and [00:13:42] school and for society, so yes, it's a good [00:13:45] idea, well, I'll go straight over here to some young people here, namely, who go here to [00:13:49] the school, you two do that here, um, yes, Jacob, he [00:13:53] says it's a good idea, Ellen, what do you think about this, that is, you are 16, you could, you [00:13:57] can go out and buy a beer or a breezer or yes, [00:14:00] alcohol with a low percentage in it, if you could only buy it [00:14:04] when you were 18, what then um, now I'm used to [00:14:08] being able to buy alcohol as a 16-year-old, so I think it would be perhaps a little strange also, [00:14:12] because we have this party culture already as 16-year-olds in [00:14:15] Denmark, so yes, I [00:14:18] think I would get it in other ways maybe, because I'm so used to buying it [00:14:22] now, yes, and Frej, well, we talked a little earlier here that... we were standing and we [00:14:25] were going on TV-Avisen here, and you told me that you had been looking forward to turning [00:14:29] 16, because then you were going to buy some alcohol here, but if that was not [00:14:32] possible, and for some of you, would you then not wait a bit with drinking, that is the intention with this [00:14:36] proposal here, um, yes, I think we would, but at the same [00:14:40] time, I still think one could get one's parents to buy either or yes [00:14:44] acquaintances or someone else who was older and then still be able to get hold of it, because it is not [00:14:47] that is, it is not only now one drinks, but it has [00:14:51] always been like that, right, but just here at the end, if it became [00:14:54] difficult. a little if it became or difficult, if it became illegal simply, so you can only buy [00:14:58] it when you are that age, would you then not postpone this with, that you drink, that is, [00:15:01] wait until you are a little more mature and and perhaps better able to control it? uh, [00:15:05] yes, absolutely, I think I would drink less 100%, but [00:15:09] I personally already started drinking as a 14-year-old, and then it was not [00:15:12] possible to buy alcohol, so I got uh either parents [00:15:16] or siblings to buy it for me, um, but yes, it might [00:15:19] reduce it a little also in this fishing culture we have in [00:15:23] Denmark, and what about you? just at the end, yes, well, it might [00:15:27] put a damper on how much you drink, yes, I think so, [00:15:30] good, so the message here from Vejstrup efterskole, it is that, uh, [00:15:34] the young people can see the point in it, but they would be sorry if it only... became legal when they [00:15:38] turned 18, but it might put a damper on their [00:15:40] alcohol consumption, [00:15:43] and hello Cecilie, shall we not look at the weather, we certainly [00:15:47] shall, it's a bit gray when you look out the [00:15:50] windows, it's only on Bornholm that you have a little blue sky and [00:15:54] sun to look at this morning, in [00:15:57] the rest of the country it's a bit good, as you can also see on the map [00:16:01] here, and up through Jutland, well, there can actually be a lot of haze and fog in the late morning hours, [00:16:05] so you should be extra careful if you [00:16:09] are going out in the next couple of hours. This cloudy weather [00:16:12] will continue most of the day, on the other hand, it's nice and warm out there, we can [00:16:16] actually reach about 17-18 degrees in many places, some places [00:16:20] also a little warmer than that. When we get to the late [00:16:23] afternoon hours, well, then it starts to bring in some rain from the west, it's a [00:16:27] front that will pass over the country, and it will give a little more continuous rain, especially [00:16:31] towards the evening and night hours. Initially, [00:16:35] it will especially be in Jutland that one will enjoy this water, but as [00:16:39] the night progresses, the rest of the country will also experience [00:16:42] rain. [00:16:49] No one can win the war, a continuation will only lead to the total [00:16:52] destruction of both nations. This is the [00:16:55] warning now from Zelensky's right hand, but is it [00:16:58] true? [00:17:02] Or does the warning come now because Russia, with new jet drones and [00:17:05] ballistic missiles, is bombing Ukrainian cities both [00:17:09] day and night. This is the war's 24 hours right now on [00:17:12] DR. TV. Texas, the Republican [00:17:16] crown jewel, is currently on the verge of becoming [00:17:19] Democratic. And if Trump loses the ruby-red [00:17:22] state, well, that could lead to a shocking defeat in the midterm elections. So now [00:17:26] Trump promises 500 dollars to all voters if [00:17:30] the Republicans win. But is it too late? And what is at stake for [00:17:34] the party? This is Trump's USA, which you can find right now. [00:17:43] Deep in a forest, a striking group of Americans [00:17:46] are preparing for battle, [00:17:49] they are socialists and communists and fear Donald Trump and [00:17:53] the MAGA movement [00:17:56] Trump's Moving Enemies Horizon right now on [00:17:59] DRTV and tonight 21:25 on [00:18:03] DR1. Oh how wild [00:18:05] it is. Well, it's out. [00:18:07] Completely, we have traveled into the [00:18:10] incomprehensibly large country, is it like here that you should [00:18:14] be, yes, is it that, not to have all of China explained, [00:18:18] but to get a little closer, so you feel left [00:18:21] out if you're not on tiktok and streaming, yes okay, and [00:18:25] perhaps to debunk a few prejudices, as Danes we can probably [00:18:28] easily get lost in thinking our system is perfect, and it will just work, it could never [00:18:32] work in China, because we know too little and perhaps [00:18:36] fear too much. Anne and Anders [00:18:38] in China on Sunday on DRTV and [00:18:42] DR1. Are you ready to solve my [00:18:46] riddle? We are in Narnia now, we go through [00:18:50] the wardrobe, and then worlds open up. [00:18:53] Two teams of famous Danes embark on new historical [00:18:57] adventures filled with tasks and clues. You got [00:19:01] it Rasmus. Damn it. The fewer [00:19:04] pieces we have to deal with, the better. Who is it? It's [00:19:07] Mikkel, you shouldn't say you're Mikkel, for [00:19:11] crying out loud. New season of The Hunt for Danish History. [00:19:15] Oh, it's like a Paradise Hotel kind of thing. Damn, what a wild [00:19:19] story. Now on DRTV, and tonight at 8 PM on DR1. [00:19:34] Good morning, we are starting a news update from TV-Avisen. A [00:19:37] Russian frigate has fired at one of the air force's helicopters with [00:19:41] flares. Flares are pyrotechnics that are normally [00:19:44] used as an attention signal at [00:19:46] sea. But according to the defense, it was fired at one of their Fenik [00:19:50] helicopters, and the incident happened yesterday in international waters in [00:19:54] the Baltic Sea, off Gæssa, the defense states in a [00:19:57] press release. [00:20:02] These are archive recordings of one of the defense's Fenik helicopters [00:20:06] on an exercise. The two flares were fired while [00:20:09] the helicopter was conducting a routine photographic coverage [00:20:13] of the Russian frigate in international waters off [00:20:16] Gæssa. According to the defense, one flare passed close by [00:20:19] the helicopter, and Defense Minister Jeppe Bro views [00:20:22] the incident with great seriousness. He says this to us in an [00:20:26] interview here this morning. Well, we take it very seriously, that is, it is [00:20:29] serious when a Danish military helicopter [00:20:33] is fired upon in international waters, which is monitoring a Russian frigate. [00:20:38] And what is the degree of seriousness, is this a hybrid attack? I don't know [00:20:42] if you call it a hybrid attack, that is, flares, i.e. pyrotechnics, are fired [00:20:46] at the helicopter, and that is of course serious, and first and foremost, it is [00:20:49] that nothing happened to the pilots and personnel on board, and [00:20:53] secondly, nothing happened to the helicopter, but of course it is serious, because they are [00:20:57] carrying out a task that we do all the time, namely keeping an eye on what is happening [00:21:01] around Denmark, and and we will continue to do so. [00:21:05] Try to describe, what does such a helicopter do, could it have provoked? Well, [00:21:09] the helicopter takes pictures, for example, and and looks at what is happening with a [00:21:13] warship that is close to Denmark, there is nothing unusual in that, that is the task [00:21:16] the defense has, and that is the task the defense performs, and it will also perform [00:21:20] it in the future, uh, so I will not speculate on what, what caused [00:21:23] the reaction from the Russian side, other than that it is at least a [00:21:27] pattern that is new compared to what we have seen before, it is also an expression [00:21:30] of the fact that Russian risk-taking is increasing. Yes, what does that say about our [00:21:34] relationship with Russia? Yes, it says [00:21:39] active in relation to the West, and that they are also pushing the boundaries in relation to the [00:21:43] actions they take. Is this the worst attack that has [00:21:47] been from Russia against Denmark? Well, I won't go [00:21:50] into categorizing that, we take it seriously, and that is also why we [00:21:54] are summoning the Russian ambassador for a conversation, so there will be a [00:21:57] conversation, what other consequences should this have? [00:22:00] Well, it is clear that we would like to send a very clear [00:22:04] signal to the Russians that we take this deeply seriously, uh, at best, [00:22:08] it is also an expression of really bad unprofessional seamanship, [00:22:12] because there are many ways to contact that helicopter if one wished [00:22:15] it, and uh, and then of course also that we will continue [00:22:19] our work." it goes without saying, but is it enough to tell them that we take this [00:22:23] seriously? No, but we are not alone, that is, we are, we are [00:22:27] always closely coordinated, both with our neighboring countries and our allies, [00:22:30] and we also see a pattern across Europe, where the Russians are pushing [00:22:34] the boundaries for the activities they carry out, and it is clear, we [00:22:37] follow that very closely. What will you then do in [00:22:40] NATO? Well, I will not do anything other than what I am now [00:22:44] telling you to do, namely summon the ambassador, ensure that we are closely [00:22:47] coordinated, make sure that we are aware of the activities we do and [00:22:51] keep an eye on Russian activity that is there, but it is clear that we [00:22:55] take it seriously when the Russians move the borders, as they do here, [00:22:59] and what happened in the waters off Gæsser, that is not normal, our [00:23:02] defense correspondent says, it is a very [00:23:06] unusual incident, so this is a step up the [00:23:09] escalation ladder, it is such that particularly Russian [00:23:13] warships and the Danish units, which have the task of [00:23:16] keeping an eye on them out in the waters, it is such that... Denmark [00:23:20] as a state would really like to have a physical look at all [00:23:23] warships sailing through or close to Danish waters, it [00:23:27] happens with the help of planes, with the help of [00:23:30] ships or in this case helicopters, you simply go out and [00:23:33] physically look at them, and there you have previously observed [00:23:37] that Russian warships have pointed [00:23:40] in the direction of Danish units with live weapons, for [00:23:44] example, they have experienced being pointed at with target-tracking [00:23:47] radar, i.e. a military instrument. you can hear at the other end when [00:23:51] you are illuminated by it, as it is called, so there have been [00:23:54] examples of a form of confrontational [00:23:57] behavior, but this is still with the firing of a form of [00:24:01] firearm, i.e. not a real firearm, but a form of something that can [00:24:05] shoot and fly through the air, i.e. a step up the [00:24:07] escalation ladder, and one of the flares flew close [00:24:11] past the helicopter, luckily no one was injured, could it [00:24:15] have gone wrong? [00:24:19] Yes, it is a... a risky situation, it is like that when [00:24:22] the defense itself practices with these signal flares or flares [00:24:26] or whatever it is, so there is a relatively large [00:24:30] safety distance, especially when there are flying units in the air, simply because [00:24:33] such a flare, which is essentially a [00:24:36] fireball moving through the air at high [00:24:39] speed, yes, it is something you very, very reluctantly see coming close to [00:24:43] either helicopters and planes or drones, simply because it [00:24:47] can risk going very, very wrong. "It is a [00:24:50] risky, it is a risky situation this, and it is something [00:24:54] that certainly attracts attention, we do not know how close or how [00:24:57] far the units have been from each other, we also do not know how close the one [00:25:01] flare passes the Danish [00:25:04] helicopter, but we know at least that it is close enough that it can [00:25:07] cause a strong reaction from Defense Minister [00:25:10] Jeppe Brus, as we hear here, and we have asked the Russian embassy in [00:25:14] Denmark for a comment from Ambassador Vladimir Barbin, it has not [00:25:18] yet succeeded, foreign affairs". Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen writes on [00:25:21] X: the incident is, now I quote, completely are also trying to get a comment from [00:25:24] unacceptable. We are also trying to get a comment from [00:25:27] the Prime Minister's Office. [00:25:31] Two out of three children and young people between 9 and 17 years old have within the last [00:25:35] year been exposed to digital violations or other [00:25:38] unpleasant experiences online. This is shown by a new [00:25:41] survey from Save the Children and Trygfonden, which maps [00:25:45] the extent of 12 different types of digital [00:25:48] violations. see times, there are people on Snapchat who randomly [00:25:52] add me, and sometimes I say yes to it to see if they are people I [00:25:55] know, and then it just ends with them sending nude pictures and all sorts of things, there are also just a lot [00:25:59] of people who have contacted me, and then it's also just videos of dead animals, and [00:26:02] car accidents and stuff like that, I was contacted by some of my [00:26:05] friends' friends, um, and then they started [00:26:09] writing a lot of unpleasant things, and like, I didn't know [00:26:13] them, so I didn't really know what to do. Digital [00:26:17] violations and unpleasant online experiences range from serious [00:26:20] legal offenses such as grooming attempts from adult strangers, to crude [00:26:23] comments and harassment from peers. Save the Children has [00:26:27] previously conducted similar surveys, and here the number has increased [00:26:30] massively from 42% back in 2021 to now [00:26:34] 66% this year. The experiences can have serious [00:26:37] consequences. It shifts children's and young people's ideas [00:26:41] about their own worth and the worth of others. It can challenge their [00:26:45] ideas about what boundaries they have. And because some of what the [00:26:48] survey shows is that children increasingly consider some [00:26:52] of this to be a condition of being online, we are actually also [00:26:55] concerned about the gradual shifting of their boundaries [00:26:58] associated with it. The survey's [00:27:01] results are. serious, that's what Save the Children says. between nine and 17 years old who [00:27:05] It is such that it is actually the majority of children and young people in Denmark [00:27:09] between nine and 17 years old who within the last year have had a very [00:27:12] unpleasant experience online. And that's everything from [00:27:16] adults reaching out and offering them something, for example sending [00:27:20] intimate pictures, someone trying to blackmail them, someone talking [00:27:23] very badly to them, or they for example see a video of someone being [00:27:27] killed or of animals being mistreated. I actually think [00:27:30] that most adults, even though we know that what's going on in [00:27:34] children's and teenagers' feeds is hardcore, even though we know that, I still think [00:27:37] surprised if we knew how wild it we would be surprised, [00:27:41] would be surprised, if we knew how wild it actually is, [00:27:45] uh, and that absolutely calls for action from us [00:27:49] adults, and us adults, and that action, where [00:27:53] should it come from, is it the politicians, is it [00:27:56] the providers, who is it? Well, uh, [00:27:59] there is absolutely nothing to suggest that the tech giants themselves [00:28:03] will take on this responsibility, on the contrary, they make money by having [00:28:06] a behavioral design that steals children's and young people's time and attention, [00:28:10] and also some content that is uh deeply [00:28:13] unpleasant, uh, they have had every opportunity to take responsibility, they have not [00:28:17] done so, and therefore we naturally need political [00:28:20] regulation, uh, now there will be a law that [00:28:24] you have to be 15 years old to be on social media, that's a good [00:28:28] first step, there's also a lot else that needs to be done, for [00:28:32] example, a ban on retention mechanisms, we also [00:28:35] need a ban on harvesting data on children and [00:28:39] young people under 18, it's such that childhood today is so [00:28:43] extremely commercialized, because a lot of their hours actually [00:28:47] go by being exposed to advertisements, and then we as [00:28:51] parents can of course also do more [00:28:54] than we do, some of what we at Save the Children know is [00:28:57] effective, is if classes make common agreements that here in [00:29:00] this class we will adhere to age limits on the various [00:29:04] digital platforms and postpone the first smartphone until the child is [00:29:07] 13 years old, which is both Save the Children's and the authorities' [00:29:11] recommendation. It has not been possible for Snapchat or Roblox to [00:29:15] answer our questions, it is said, while TikTok has not been [00:29:18] able to provide an interview, they say, and Meta refers to [00:29:22] Instagram's new Teen Profiles, which set limits on who can [00:29:25] contact them, and what content they can access. [00:29:29] Minister for Digitization Christina Egelund writes to us that the survey confirms [00:29:33] that the tech giants are not taking their responsibility seriously, therefore I am also happy that we [00:29:37] are now introducing an age limit for social media, so that we can shield [00:29:40] children from the absolutely outrageous content that exists on many of [00:29:43] the platforms, it does not solve the problem alone, but it is an important [00:29:47] step [00:29:48] forward. [00:29:52] The US Supreme Court rejects Trump's attempt to tighten the rules [00:29:56] for mail-in ballots. Trump signed a decree in the spring, which [00:30:00] among other things required that ballots only be sent to voters who [00:30:03] were on special lists of mail-in voters in the individual [00:30:07] states. At the same time, the president wanted the envelopes to be equipped with [00:30:10] tracking, but the Supreme Court has now rejected that. [00:30:13] The case has great significance for the midterm elections in November, as [00:30:16] almost a third of American voters vote by mail. That [00:30:20] is according to AP. [00:30:23] A NATO fighter jet has shot down a drone in Lithuanian airspace. The [00:30:27] country's president confirms this on X. It is now unclear where the drone [00:30:30] came from, but the president writes: [00:30:32] quote, in light of Russia's escalating aggression [00:30:36] against Ukraine, such readiness is of crucial importance [00:30:40] for our [00:30:41] region. [00:30:45] The Efterskolerne Association wants to raise the age limit for alcohol sales [00:30:48] to 18 years. This is the message in an open letter that [00:30:52] the association has sent to the health ministry.
