– But that we acted so quickly. It is – I think – the most important political decision I’ve ever made.

– The political differences – they will of course once again stand out more clearly, not least when we get started with the recovery of the Danish economy. We come each with our starting point. Opinions are broken. And it is basically healthy.

– But I will do my best to, that we are still pursuing the broad political cooperation. I think that it makes the results better. And also more durable.

* the minister of Defence Trine Team (S) and MEP Christel Schaldemose (S) in a common case:

– Because we have a strong democracy, we could act decisively. We are fending off a potentially big crisis.

– Coronakrisen have changed much, but it has not weakened our democracy. It is, on the contrary, been strengthened by the crisis. Confidence in politicians and authorities are grown.

– We must fight for the powers, as politicians and ministers now have, be given back to those who must have them: You, me, they and everyone else in this amazing country

* Former chairman of the Danish people’s Party Pia Kjærsgaard:

– We have the past few years have seen a concentration of power without precedent in the recent history of denmark.

– When we are talking democracy, it is also necessary to talk about the european UNION. For years we have been tudet ears full of the importance of common solutions, common currency and open borders. Then came the coronakrisen. The borders were closed. The “outdated” nation-states had to face it alone. The UNION was complete bovlam.

we Were a little too nævenyttige, and a little too good to monitor whether someone had sneaked to Malmo to buy into or go on the café? We must throw fear far away! We need to find optimism again. This is how we proceed – both as people and as a community.
