On Sunday (14th), Queen Margrethe II of Denmark officially abdicated and was succeeded by her eldest son, who will now reign as Frederik X.
According to reports, during her participation in the National Committee, Margaret II signed a declaration of abdication in the presence of Frederick and the Cabinet Secretary. After signing, Margaret II stood up and gestured for her eldest son, Frederick, to take her place, saying "God save our King" before leaving the room.
The Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, announced to the public from the terrace of the Prime Minister's residence and the location of the Parliament, Christiansborg Palace, that the Crown Prince has officially ascended to the throne as King. In his speech, King Frederik X expressed his commitment to the unity and progress of Denmark and hopes to be a unifying and strong leader for the future.
At the age of 55, Frederick X is currently the ruling monarch, with his 18-year-old son, Christian, being the crown prince of Denmark. In her New Year's speech, 83-year-old Margaret II announced her intention to abdicate on January 14, 2024, which shocked the nation. She will be the first monarch in nearly 900 years to voluntarily abdicate in the local history.
