(Adnkronos) – Outgoing Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is received by King Frederik X to inform him about the results and consequences of yesterday’s parliamentary elections. This was announced by the Royal Palace. Speaking to her supporters, Frederiksen said she was “ready to once again take on the responsibility of serving as Prime Minister of Denmark for the next four years.”
Despite the loss of support, the Social Democratic Party led by Frederiksen remains the most represented in the new Danish parliament, which puts the outgoing prime minister in a strong position to form the next government. Frederiksen admitted to her supporters that she would have preferred a better result, but “today there is nothing that can sadden me about the fact that the Social Democrats are once again the absolute favorite political party of the Danes.”
