India and Denmark share friendly ties, with diplomatic relations established in September 1949, based on historical links, common democratic traditions, and a shared desire for regional and international peace and stability.
The Ministry of External Affairs, in a press statement, informed that bilateral relations were elevated to the level of a “Green Strategic Partnership” during a Virtual Summit in 2020 between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen of Denmark. The current development in India-Denmark relations has been guided by this “Green Strategic Partnership.”
The two countries have seen several high-level interactions. In 2024, EAM Jaishankar met Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen on the sidelines of the Raisina Dialogue, where they exchanged views on bilateral, regional, and international issues of mutual interest.
2024 marks 75 years of diplomatic ties between India and the Kingdom of Denmark. To mark the occasion, both ministers unveiled a joint logo.
The MEA noted in a press statement that the ministers highlighted significant outcomes under the Indo-Danish Green Strategic Partnership. They agreed to finalise a mid-term review of the partnership in 2024, which will conclude in an updated India-Denmark Joint Action Plan (2021-2026), and to hold the next round of the India-Denmark Joint Commission at the earliest possible convenience.
India-Denmark relations have grown in depth and breadth in recent years. Prime Minister Modi paid an official visit to Denmark in May 2022, and Danish Prime Minister Frederiksen visited India in 2021. The Indo-Danish Green Strategic Partnership has catalysed enhanced cooperation between the two countries, the MEA noted. (ANI)
