Grateful to attend #ArcticEncounter and meet so many inspiring people and the Arctic youth in particular. A special thanks to @rachelkallander and senator @lisamurkowski for being fantastic hosts for an unexpected but gorgeous visit to #Whittier.
Busy days in Washington this week. Now time for a G&T 🙂 #itsalwaysfiveoclocksomewhere
BZ to our friends and colleagues from @LockheedMartin for hosting PM Frederiksen. Executed perfectly by your professional team and well received by participants from Danish defence industry!
On September 1 United States @Secdef and @mfmorten met in the Pentagon to reaffirmed the long-standing bilateral defense relationship between the United States and Denmark. Our soldiers have for generations fought shoulder by shoulder for the joint cause and our shared values🇩🇰🇺🇸
I had the great honour of handing over Denmark’s ratification of Finland and Sweden’s accession to #NATO at @StateDept today. Proud that Denmark is among the first countries to ratify the membership of our Nordic colleagues. #WeAreNATO

I’m so proud of the OSD Policy team that worked tirelessly for a year to craft the new National Defense Strategy. The unclassified NDS will be out in the coming months, but the fact sheet can be found here. https://t.co/L51MMtAfG8
This morning, I sat down with my Danish counterpart Minister Morten Bødskov. I thanked him for Denmark’s prompt and significant contributions to deterrence and defense in responding to Russian aggression, and continued support to Ukraine. #WeAreNATO
Regeringen og et bredt flertal af Folketingets partier er enige om et historisk løft af udgifterne til Forsvaret. Det er en bunden opgave i et kommende forsvarsforlig at løfte Danmarks udgifter til forsvar og sikkerhed varigt til 2% af BNP https://t.co/V4AvbTxK8p
Regeringen har i dag fået bred opbakning til at sende våben til Ukraine. Danmark donerer ca. 2.700 stk. skulderbårne panserværnsvåben. https://t.co/bnkTLejiyh
