A resolution honoring the deep and enduring friendship between the Kingdom of Denmark and the United States on the occasion of Danish Constitution Day celebrations.
This is a Senate resolution that honors the deep and enduring friendship between the Kingdom of Denmark and the United States on the occasion of Danish Constitution Day. It expresses friendship and respect, recognizes Denmark’s strong commitment to U.S.-Denmark cooperation, and offers gratitude for Danish sacrifices in military operations aligned with U.S. interests. The resolution looks forward to continued decades of shared prosperity, peace, and partnership. As a non-binding, symbolic measure, it serves as formal diplomacy rather than creating any new laws or funding. Key background notes in the resolution highlight the long-standing bilateral relationship (diplomatic ties since 1801), substantial Danish-American ancestry, Denmark’s military contributions in conflicts alongside the United States, and Denmark’s role within NATO, including defense spending above NATO targets and involvement in the F-35 program. These context points reinforce the spirit of the honor and the strength of the alliance.
