Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has suffered a light whiplash injury after she was assaulted by a man in central Copenhagen, said her office Saturday. News of the assault was received with shock and condemnation inside Denmark and abroad, as French President Emmanuel Macron condemned it strongly, saying it was unacceptable. The man was then arrested, according to the premier's office European Council President Charles Michel said he was "outraged by the assault" while European Parliament President Roberta Metsola urged Frederiksen to "keep strong" while adding in a post on X that "violence has no place in politics." In turn, EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen also condemned what she called a "despicable act which goes against everything we believe and fight for in Europe," in a statement to social media.
