Royal examiner and acting Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen will continue her negotiations on Monday about who will form a government in Denmark.
The hunt for one new government resumes on Monday afternoon, when the royal investigator, Mette Frederiksen (S), has called for meetings at Marienborg.
This is stated by the Social Democratic Party in a press release.
The negotiations also continue on Tuesday, when Mette Frederiksen has called for meetings in the Prime Minister’s Office.
It is not clear which parties have been summoned, and it is said that there is no access for the press in connection with Monday’s meetings.
However, TV 2 writes that the parties Radikale Venstre and Alternativet confirm to the media that they are participating. According to TV 2, the alternative will be on the negotiating table on Tuesday, while it is unclear which day Radikale Venstre will appear.
Government negotiations have been at a standstill over the Easter holidays, but will therefore start again on the second Easter Sunday.
Complicated situation in the Danish Parliament
The royal examiner went on Easter vacation with a desire to investigate a possible government consisting of the Social Democrats, SF and De Radikale.
However, the three parties are far from a majority on their own with a combined 68 mandates. Therefore, negotiations are also being held with a number of other parties.
In the election, the blue bloc got 77 mandates, while the red bloc got 84. Meanwhile, the Moderates could count to 14 mandates.
The mandates of the moderates are therefore crucial in order to count towards the famous 90 mandates and a majority.
Party chairman Lars Løkke Rasmussen (M) called before the extended weekend for “the Easter holiday to be used for reflection”.
He and the Moderates spent several hours at Marienborg on Wednesday, where they were also invited to government negotiations.
He stated in the same vein that it looked “more than difficult” to find a possible government and sent a direct call to the Social Democrats, the Left and the Conservatives to bow to a government across the middle.
