Political shenanigans should not impinge on academic freedom. Do not victimize a superb scientist.

100percent unacceptable however this is precisely how the Danish academic system operates, in particular towards its most precious researchers. Shame on UCPH and it's leadership. However similarly shame on DTU and probably other DK universities.

The firing of Prof. Thybo is completely unjustified. His position should be restored immediately.

The reasons presented for Thybo's sacking are making employees at the University of Copenhagen worried about their situation and nervous about speaking their mind.

This sacking appears to have no rationale other than vindictiveness and personal animosity. It also breaches fundamental principles of academic freedom and independence. The University of Copenhagen should reinstate his position immediately.

This is such a serious threat to the academic freedom that besides reinstating professor Hans Thybo we can hope for a serious, public discussion of how this must be done in the future.
These reasons sound absolutely ridiculous and unjustified.
