At the beginning of July 2025, Denmark took over the EU Council Presidency from Poland. Since joining the EU in 1973, Denmark has now assumed this important role for the eighth time. In view of the ongoing crises, the tasks ahead are immense. Denmark is tackling them with the motto ‘A strong Europe in a changing world’. The strength of the EU lies not only in European unity and a solid economy, but also in stable democracies and socially balanced societies. All of this must be further developed and utilised in order to defend European interests and the international legal order. The green transition is seen as essential for a more secure and competitive Europe.
