Over 5 months in 2025, I travelled from Germany to #Taiwan interviewing tech execs on #AI, #humanoid #robots, chipmaking politics, data centers and #cybersecurity to capture our explosive present moment, and how tech will change our daily lives in the next 5 years🤖 for @newsweek

I started an off-duty-tech-correspondent substack. In my first dispatch from Taiwan, I'm sharing my take on @HonHai_Foxconn's emerging-market-expansion spree, bytes from my @UNDP interview on FDIs in Africa, and my review of a Taipei sex den. https://t.co/AewfzEN80a

Global biodiversity offsetting doesn’t work - keep schemes local Standards proposed at #Cop16 focus on local like-for-like habitat replacements, while critics call the system a ‘distraction’ @phoeb0 on the nascent biodiversity credit market https://t.co/F4GfxJqylF

Nordic leaders are in Reykjavík with Ukraine's President and Belarus' democracy movement leader for flagship talks on Arctic security. Tensions are high as Russia and NATO rearm the region, and scientists warn of impending climate catastrophe. @cphpost https://t.co/ueXau1dvD0

🌐🇩🇰 Denmark unveiled one of the world’s fastest #AI supercomputers this week, running on state-of-the-art processors and software by California-based technology company @nvidia and supported by the world's wealthiest non-profit @novonordiskfond https://t.co/MDzL3YG02o

EU support is growing for controversial migrant "return hubs" after the recent right wing surge. Denmark's PM welcomed the shift, calling past attempts to pitch a stricter asylum policy “like shouting into an empty handball hall in Jutland”. @cphpost https://t.co/RxJ7xyVKQU

45% of Danes support a two-state solution enforced by the international community - but 51.1 % oppose military force, according to Voxmeter. Two-state advocates suggest a Palestine comprising Gaza and the West Bank, linked by a corridor through Israel. https://t.co/AoXg6hXITb

Re: my last post Here's an overview in English of Denmark's national climate measures/agreements over the past year, and how they contribute to achieving the country's climate targets 🌿🌊🌾🇩🇰 @cphpost https://t.co/asIb4uje3x

Denmark will bolster police resources to combat the growing frequency of Swedish-led terrorism in Copenhagen. Two grenades were detonated near the Israeli embassy last week, a day after gunfire was reported at Sweden's Israeli embassy. For @cphpost https://t.co/4XfaX2i1xt

Since March 14, 2024, travelers from Switzerland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Ireland, Hungary and Austria have been able to enter China without a visa. On July 1, 2024, that was extended to include Poland, Australia and New Zealand, and yesterday to Greece and Slovenia.

China is currently handing out several visa-free policies. Since December 1, 2023, visa-free entry for 15 days has been granted to visitors from France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Malaysia.

Forsby says the “vague and unspecified character” of the One China policy makes it difficult for the Nordics to counter Beijing’s growing assertiveness. Denmark can be described as a “commercial pragmatist” with its practical arrangement of non-official relations with Taiwan.

The position is shared by Denmark’s Nordic neighbours, Norway, Finland, Iceland and Sweden, and is frequently overstated by Chinese ambassadors who make excessive claims about their host countries’ support for an 'undivided China'.

However, it is a cautious stance, according to Andreas Bøje Forsby, a senior researcher in foreign policy and diplomacy at the Danish Institute for International Studies.

Officially, the Danish government has since 1950 recognized the People’s Republic of China as the sole legal government of China – known as the ‘One China policy’ – without taking a position on Taiwan’s political status.
