On Tuesday, Denmark will enter into force the periodic presidency of the European Union, in addition to its priorities, the security of the continent, especially the implementation of the decision to increase the recent military expenses in NATO (NATO).
“It was clear that security is an absolute priority,” said Matta Frederxen Prime Minister in an interview, published by the Danish newspaper Politicin on Sunday. “Now we have a new NATO goal that has been approved,” she added. To achieve this, we must transfer to Europe. As soon as NATO’s goal is, most other issues are the policy of the European Union. “
At the end of June, the 32nd NATO countries promised to invest 5 percent of their annual gross domestic production in the field of security by 2035, including at least 3.5 percent for military expenses and an additional 1.5 percent for wider security, such as “protection of vital infrastructure” and cybersecurity. This is the goal of Spain “irrational”, requiring a certain flexibility.
In practice, Denmark intends to give a payment to the European plan, which was presented in March in order to increase the protective capabilities of the alliance countries by promoting mechanisms and providing loans to countries to finance investment in the European defense industry.
Fredricksen noted that the security situation in Europe is “unstable, and since it is unstable, it is also dangerous. If we look at the history of Europe, we see that any conflict tends to spread infection. Currently, there is great tension, to such an extent that only this can lead to another tension. ”
Denmark is one of the countries that head European support for Ukraine. Since Friedricksen significantly increased defense expenses to his country, assuming that the Prime Minister significantly increased defense expenses to his country in order to overcome 3 percent of GDP.

The Danish presidency is also included in the priorities of its Safe Europe program to combat irregular migration, promising to find “new and innovative solutions”.
Denmark is a supporter of a strict immigration policy that has become widespread through Europe, and she hopes to create a European consensus regarding the transfer of applications for the provision of asylum outside the trade union and limit the scale of the European Court of Human Rights.
The Danish presidency of the Blok states that “irregular migration cannot be allowed to threaten European meat.”
The Scandinavian state has recently joined Italy and seven other countries to demand a re -interpretation of the European Convention on Human Rights in relation to immigration, usually it protects “incorrect people”.
