Royal encounter: Danish couple visits Schleswig-Holstein!

Kiel, Deutschland - Kiel, in the northernmost state of Germany, is preparing for an outstanding visit. King Frederik X. and Queen Mary von Denmark are expected in Kiel after visiting Berlin on Tuesday, the Xth month. Prime Minister Daniel Günther (CDU) will receive the monarchs and at the same time the opening of an important energy conference in the Geomar Helmholtz Research Center for Ocean Research will initiate.

Another important program item will be a visit to the historic Danewerk, where a new building project sponsor is planned. This stop is particularly noteworthy because the Danewerk plays a key role in the history of the region and also emphasizes cross -border cooperation between Denmark and Germany. The ultimately planned visit to the Danish minority in Flensburg will deal with the promotion of renewable energies-a promising topic in the current climate debate.

The anticipation in Schleswig-Holstein is shared by various players. Prime Minister Günther expressed himself optimistically about the upcoming meeting: "I am very pleased that the Danish royal couple visited Schleswig-Holstein in the first year after the change of throne," he reported. According to Günther, this visit illustrates the close connections between the two countries and emphasizes the importance of the Danish minority in Germany.

Gitte Hougaard-Werner, the chairwoman of the Südschleswig association (SSF), was also enthusiastic about the upcoming visit. She emphasized that the Danish historically was a natural part of the region and that the Danish minority had always maintained a strong connection to the Danish royal family. This underlines the cultural and historical ties between Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein.

The Danish minority in Schleswig-Holstein has special rights and enjoys government support. The Südschleswig Voter Association (SSW), as a political representation, is excluded from the otherwise usual five percent hurdle, which ensures it an important role in the political life of the region.

The visit of the Danish royal couple will not only offer a celebration of the monarchical connections, but also a platform to discuss important current topics such as cross -border cooperation and the green turn. The use for renewable energies is of central importance in view of climate change and the challenges that both countries look at.
