Crown Prince Christian of Denmark reflects on his military journey in his first major interview with Politiken

A new interview was made with Crown Prince Christian of Denmark with Politiken, it was released on October 11 2026

Next summer, Crown Prince Christian of Denmark is scheduled to call himself a first lieutenant. But that doesn't have to be the end of life in uniform.
For the country's future king is now opening up the possibility that the next step could be a secondment.

He says this in his first major interview with Politiken.
"I haven't locked myself into anything yet. I'm open to all the things that could come, and I'm looking at the different options. If a secondment were to come up and I got the opportunity, I would definitely find it interesting," he tells the media outlet.

Where any possible secondment would go in that case is completely open. Denmark is sending soldiers to Latvia as part of the defense of NATO's eastern flank, while Greenland is also mentioned as a possibility in the interview.

The Crown Prince emphasizes, however, that it will ultimately be up to the Armed Forces to decide where he can best be of use.

On the way to the new adventure, the thought murmuration planted in the body of the country's heir to the throne.
"I remember on the drive down there my whole body was shaking, I was super nervous and I was like, uh, 1 sure want this." I was actually in a lot of doubt and I was like, what if I don't like it.
So far, the Crown Prince has only spoken to the press a few times and briefly in connection with the Royal Run exercise race and after a flight in an F-16 fighter jet, but now the Politician Jakob Hvide Beim has had the opportunity to interview the Crown Prince about his personal experiences with the defence.

There is also a small, discreet revelation about his housing situation. Although the Crown Prince still lives in the family palace at Amalienborg, he has been given his own residence. Thus, Christian lives in his own apartment adjacent to Frederik VIII's Palace.

In his first major interview with Politiken, the soon-to-be 21-year-old crown prince says that the prospect of one day taking over the throne feels both great and overwhelming:
"It's surreal for me to think about it," he tells Politiken and continues:
"I'm about to turn 21, and I know that this is what my future holds, among other things. I've known it from a young age and have been prepared for the task by my parents. So it's something I'm obviously both excited about and nervous about."

Should I give uni notes to my friend?

We both started university 2 years ago and met on the first day, I’m a finance major and she’s a management major, so I guess you guys know that as business major we have some common courses together.
In my university (not in the US) my friend had to in her first semester an entire semester of intensive english so she can get better at speaking English (american university, she got accepted if you’re wondering because in my country all private universities usually accept anyone as long as you pay the tuition)
end she kept taking remedial english courses (1course per semester untill last spring).
So basically I have had more business courses than she has, and she knows that I do good notes, so she’s demanding if I can send her my notes for the upcoming semester.
Last spring she took an accounting course (I didn’t have any notes, but I wanted to help her because I actually enjoyed this course, so I did some notes that are actually helpful and I tutored her, and I do not mind helping someone if they need help)
But why would I was thinking why would I give her notes now that takes me hours to make, especially for accounting, economics & finance.

She wants to take my notes in the following courses: microeconomics, macroeconomics, business law, managerial accounting, financial management.
Her reason is, is that my notes are good and better than the powerpoints and because she says that instead of her having to take notes in class she can take mine, so instead she could focus in class.

And for all of the courses that I cited ( excluding business law), I would sit in class and pay attention to my Dr and would highlight the most important stuff, and write them down on my notes.

Now for the business law course tyat I took this summer, I didn’t need to do notes, I could have studied directly from the powerpoint, but I personally can memorize better if it’s hand written (I do the notes on my ipads in black, but still make it colorful, personally if the papers look good I would get more motivated to study)
Also in this class the Dr made some subtle changes in some slides, she would tell us that in this sentence we should replace it with a sentence that she would tell us about. So basically if you do not take notes in this particular instance, you’d memorize the wrong thing.

So if you were me, would you give her the notes?
