🇩🇰 FM Lars Løkke Rasmussen: "Visiting the Philippines as the first Danish Foreign Minister in 25 years. Thank you to my colleague @SecManalo for a productive meeting where we discussed, among other things, a potential 🇵🇭🇪🇺 free trade agreement, which 🇩🇰 wholeheartedly supports."


🇩🇰FM Lars Løkke Rasmussen: "As a seafaring nation, maritime security is key to Denmark. Had an interesting talk with the Philippine Coast Guard about developments in the South China Sea. Open, free, and secure seaways are vital for political stability, global trade & global economy."


🇩🇰FM Lars Løkke Rasmussen: "Denmark faces a shortage of workers to care for the elderly and vulnerable, while the Philippines has a long tradition of workers abroad🌍. I’m pleased with the new MoU to explore how we can attract qualified 🇵🇭 labor. A win-win for both countries."








Had interesting and enjoyable exchanges with multilateralist Ambassadors over lunch. Thank you, 🇸🇮 Amb Smiljana Knez for hosting us.
