Abroad, Mette Frederiksen is hailed as a leader who can 'shut up Trump and Putin'

From an international perspective, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is recognized as an important European leader, and her continued role in government has been met with approval abroad. Commentators internationally are reportedly pleased that Denmark has a new government with the Social Democratic party leader at its helm.

This positive international reception contrasts with some domestic critiques of the new government. While the article does not detail specific foreign policy achievements, it notes that Frederiksen's leadership is seen as a valuable asset on the European stage.

However, within Denmark, the new government faces scrutiny. Berlingske's editorial commentary, as cited, suggests the ministerial team is heavily weighted towards the left on economic issues, described as a "green mess" in environmental policy, and "completely lost" on immigration matters. Another commentary likens the government to "wealthy curling parents" ready to use their finances when their children face challenges.
