Watch the video: Slender majority for left camp in Denmark – Mette Frederiksen announces resignation.
STORY: You had to tremble for a long time at this historically close election result in Denmark on Tuesday. But after the count, the Danish left-wing alliance around Mette Frederiksen can now celebrate a victory in the early parliamentary elections. It was a neck-and-neck race until the end. This means that the incumbent prime minister can probably remain in power. However, she initially announced a strategic resignation. With her resignation, she wants to pave the way for a new so-called queen round. It looks at which of the party leaders in the centre-left alliance can best form a new government. Since the Social Democrats have once again become by far the strongest force, Frederiksen is likely to receive this exploratory mandate.
