Danish Prime Minister  - Denmark has been ‘naive’ on China and now seeks to ‘de-risk,’ PM says


TOKYO — Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said her country plans to strengthen partnerships with countries like Japan as it seeks to “de-risk” its relations with China.

“We have been too naive when it comes to being too dependent [on China],” Frederiksen told Nikkei Asia in an exclusive interview in Tokyo on Tuesday. “We have to be really aware of what’s going on, and I would like Europe to produce more needed technology on our own ground.”
