Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen was on Friday “hit” by a man on a Copenhagen square, her office said, with EU chiefs quickly condemning the attack. The Danish prime minister’s office said in a statement to AFP that Frederiksen was “shocked by the incident”, but did not provide further details.
“Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen was hit by a man Friday evening on Kultorvet in Copenhagen. The man was subsequently arrested,” the statement said. The incident comes on the heels of a spate of attacks on politicians from across the political spectrum at work or on the campaign trail in Germany ahead of this week’s EU elections. On May 15, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico was shot four times at close range as he greeted supporters after a government meeting in the central town of Handlova. Fico, who survived the assassination attempt, was taken to a hospital in a nearby city after the shooting, where he underwent two lengthy surgeries. EU chief Charles Michel and European Parliament President Roberta Metsola on Friday slammed the attack on Frederiksen.
