		The Nordic-Baltic-American defence ministers meetings of the past few years and the frequent Russo-Nordic defence minister meetings indicate that both the United States and Russia see the Nordic countries as playing an important role in furthering the security and stability in the region.

		One of these is the Nordic materiel co-operation, in which the Nordic defence ministers in December 1994 signed an agreement, which formed the basis of increased co-operation in defence materiel.

	FT.com / World / Europe - ‘Jobs and education the answer’on Muslim issue
		Anders Fogh Rasmussen, prime minister of Denmark, has warned that Europe’s Muslims need better education and job opportunities if religious confrontations, such as the violent protests over the Prophet Mohammed cartoons, are to be avoided.
		The conflict has forced Denmark, a traditionally non-confrontational Scandinavian country, to scale back its diplomatic representation in the region and to warn its citizens against travel in large parts of the Muslim world.
		Denmark has a dynamic jobs market and a jobless rate well below the European Union average but the employment rate of its immigrants compares poorly with the 63 per cent for non-western male immigrants in Britain and Germany – and that figure is much below the rate for the mainstream population.

	Australia's Harpoon Upgrade Plans. - - WMDs & Missiles \| Defence Talk Forum
		The Australian Defence Force will be equipped with the most effective anti-ship missiles in the world following the Government's decision to spend $30 million to acquire Harpoon Block II technology, Defence Minister Robert Hill announced today.
		Given that Denmark acquired 50 (publicly announced) Harpoon 11 upgrade kits for $10 Million and that Australia is planning to spend $30 Million on these kits, this should provide quite a boost to Australia's strike capabilities, allowing even our Navy to strike land targets at quite a distance inland.
		Moskit is a extremly fast missile - 3 times faster than Harpoon and you have yet to find Yakhont or Brahmos, and now imagine all that armed with nuclear warhead and swarms of it- LOL potential is unlimitied.
