PM sees historic low EU vote as a warning

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen acknowledges Social Democrats’ poorest EU election outcome as a government warning. The party, facing the worst result in a century, dropped nearly six points since 2019. Frederiksen admitted the broad coalition with centrists and liberals, such as the Moderates and Venstre, impacts their distinct identity. She accepts responsibility and foreshadows imminent governmental changes. Following an attack in Copenhagen, which left her psychologically and physically shaken, Frederiksen plans to work more from the office. Attempts by reporters to interview her post-incident have been unsuccessful.
