[Russian Ambassador to Denmark: Denmark is preparing for a direct military conflict with Russia] Russian Ambassador to Copenhagen Vladimir Barbin commented in an interview with Danish media: "From now on, we must assume that Denmark is not only considering the possibility of a direct military conflict with Russia, but is also preparing for such a situation." The comment was posted on a Telegram channel. The Russian ambassador added that the reasons given by Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen for the need to possess long-range precision-guided weapons to strike Russian targets are "utterly crazy." Barbin stressed: "No one, anywhere in the world, has ever thought of openly threatening a nuclear power. There is no doubt that these remarks will be taken into consideration."
