Greetings on behalf of the United States on the occasion of the 168th anniversary of the adoption of the Danish constitution.

 

The United States and Denmark have enjoyed a close partnership since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1801. Denmark’s strong support of NATO, and its valuable contributions in the fight against terrorism, promotes stability and security in Europe and around the world.

We are proud to call Denmark an ally and friend. Best wishes to all Danes as you celebrate this special day.
