Mette Frederiksen seeks funding boost for EU

European leaders acknowledge the critical need for more EU funds to defend the continent, address climate change, and maintain welfare societies. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is ready to explore every avenue to secure additional EU financing amid the war on the continent and other challenges facing Europe. Traditionally, Denmark has been hesitant to increase the EU budget, but the current situation may demand a reassessment of its contribution. At a summit in Stockholm, Frederiksen is meeting with Nordic leaders and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to discuss these pressing financial discussions.
