(8 months ago)Recent incidents with observed fears near defence facilities and airports have prompted Denmark to call soldiers from the reserve forces. This was reported by Danish media, under which there is a call of several hundred soldiers. “According to some sources, several hundred soldiers are expected to be present, under obligation to present [...]
“According to some sources, several hundred soldiers are expected to be present, with the obligation to present themselves as soon as possible. The Danish Armed Forces have not commented on the news”, writes TV broadcaster 2.
According to Jacob Carrsbo, who is an adviser to security policies and has a past as a top analyst at the Danish Armed Forces Intelligence Service, this indicates that this is an extraordinary situation.
This indicates that we are in a completely extraordinary situation. That is why we are also seeing these remarkable measures. I don't remember hearing it before”, says Jacob Carrsbo, reports A2 CNN.
According to information, the call is aimed at preparing for possible deployment to Danish soil.
According to the security adviser, this may make sense in view of the upcoming EU summit, which will take place in Copenhagen this week, starting Wednesday.
Despite that, we're on a high scale with everything that's going on and what's going on this week. And there are still Russian ships floating around our country. I'm pretty sure all sails will be opened”, says Jacob Carrsbo.
There are no official figures of how many militia currently have Danish protection, but in 2013 The Main Organisation for Reserve Staff in Denmark praised the number of reserve soldiers in 3,000 soldiers. /Periscope/
