The Throne Room at Christiansborg Palace today formed the setting for the reception of new ambassadors, who presented their credentials to His Majesty the KingThe ceremony took place at Christiansborg, as the Grand Staircase in Christian VII's Palace at Amalienborg is currently undergoing renovation and restoration.The ambassadors arrived at the palace in a carriage from Amalienborg, accompanied by the Guard Hussar Regiment's Horse Corso.
I was wondering when the King would make a visit to Greenland. This is about exerting some soft power and soft diplomacy. Plus, the optics this visit will provide to the rest of the world. And given the current situation, this visit will make international news and get attention. This is what you call "statesman" things.According to the calendar the visit will be from April 28 through May 2.
Very important visit and I'm sure he will receive a warm welcome.

And significant that they will meet in Denmark and then traveling together to Greenland. Quite the statement.Agree.
That they will be meeting first in Denmark and then traveling with the new President to Greenland is an important point.

Per BB the flight today for both the King and PM has been postponed until tomorrow morning due to weather conditions.The trip may be postponed.
There is bad weather coming in at Nuuk in Greenland and other flights have already been cancelled.![]()
But the weather tomorrow should be fine.
Bad weather.Per the DRF calendar, the visit to Station Noord and Sirius Patrol will no longer be taking place. The visit to Greenland University on April 30th is now the last engagement of the trip. No reason was given in the BB article about the changes.
That's disappointing.
King Frederik has denied that he is on a (political) mission to Greenland.
And indeed he may not have a specific agenda, but otherwise he is very much on a mission to Greenland. Cementing the relationship between DK and Greenland, emphasizing the relationship between himself in particular and the DRF in general in regards to Greenland, showing the flag (to the Americans), establishing a personal relationship between himself and especially the new Greenlandic politicians, and being a kind of rallying point for many Greenlanders by his person.
Lovely words about the King's relationship with Greenland. He's stated many times how connected he feels to Greenland and the Greenlandic people. Even with the shortened trip, it is still important to show how the King is greeted by the residents, the new government, etc. The optics of the reception and any comments by the politicians and residents will make an impact and show a clear difference optically.I agree. And the President of Greenland has some nice words on this visit

Kong Frederik: Jeg er glad hver gang jeg kommer til Grønland
Kongen Frederik er kommet med en kort kommentar til pressen, inden han er taget ud at sejle på fjorden ved Nuuk.www.sermitsiaq.ag
"- I have always been able to sense that the King has a very special relationship with Greenland, and you can sense that it is completely sincere. And it has been like that for many years – also for Her Majesty Queen Margrethe.
- So their love for our country cannot be questioned, and that is why I am pleased to be able to invite him, says Jens-Frederik Nielsen."
Some nice videos can be found here.

The weather was at its finest as His Majesty The King experienced Greenland’s magnificent nature during an excursion into the backcountry of Nuuk yesterday.
At the invitation of the Premier of Naalakkersuisut, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, the journey went through rugged terrain by snowmobile and UTV.
Along the way, The King enjoyed views of mountains, valleys, and the well-known Sermitsiaq mountain.
