Ambassador, Ladies and Gentlemen,

Members of the American Club, the American Chamber of Commerce, the Rebild Society and the American Women’s Club,

Thank you very much to Spencer Oliver and to Ambassador Fulton for the kind introduction.
Danish-Russian trade has picked up again and there is growing interest in new investments. However, there is potential for far more. Rich possibilities exist and it is our joint responsibility to fully exploit them.
Ambassadors, Your Excellencies,
Thank you for coming today. I have been looking forward to our meeting. I see these gatherings as an important channel of communication between the Danish Government and our partners and friends who are represented in Denmark. I am pleased that you have had the chance to meet with the new Foreign Minister and the new Minister for Development Cooperation.
Greening Together – Chinese-Danish cooperation on the road towards a green economy
Honourable Vice President Xi Jinping,
Heads of State and Government,
Ministers and Governors,
Chairman and Secretary General of the Boao Forum,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Yesterday we said goodbye to the decade we learnt to know as the ’00s. It proved to be a decade with many encouraging achievements. The most encouraging probably being the record low unemployment rate in Denmark in the summer of 2008. But it also turned out to be a decade which eventually did cast long shadows. The entire world was seriously affected by a deep economic crisis, which we have not yet seen the end of. Danish enterprises have lost sales abroad. Jobs have been lost. Families are faced with unemployment and an insecure future.
