Foreign Policy
Denmark pursues an activist foreign policy that combines Nordic values with strong Atlanticism. It is one of NATO's most willing military contributors among smaller allies, having participated in operations in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and the Baltics.
Key priorities include Arctic governance (through the Arctic Council and Greenland's strategic importance), green transition leadership, development aid, and European security. Denmark abolished its EU defense opt-out in 2022, signaling deeper commitment to European security cooperation in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
