Danish Social Democrat Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, who won Tuesday’s general election, said she had handed over her resignation to the Queen on Wednesday and would begin exploring a coalition in politics.
However, negotiations are expected to be lengthy, as Frederiksen’s friends and foes have expressed skepticism towards such a coalition, making the outcome uncertain.
The left-wing bloc, of which Frederiksen’s Social Democratic Party is a part, won 90 seats, the smallest possible majority in the 179-seat parliament, while the right-wing bloc won 72 seats and a newly formed centrist party secured 16.
Frederiksen campaigned on the need for a broad coalition across the traditional left-right divide, arguing that political unity is necessary at a time of international uncertainty.
