Danish inflation figures for October 2025 were published today.
A small drop from last month, but still on the wrong side of 2%

What's is Trump talking about, when he says that the US should start testing atomic bombs, because other countries do it?
The last test was conducted in 2017 by North Korea. This test was the only one since 2006.
Apparently he does know history.
Another smoke screen for the declining economy?
