Denmark has spent an average of 293 million kroner daily on rearming its Armed Forces since the summer of 2023, totaling a three-digit billion kroner amount. New statements from the Ministry of Defence reveal the extent of spending since the latest Defence Agreement on June 28, 2023, raising concerns about the remaining funds in the war chest.
The substantial financial commitment to strengthening the Armed Forces follows warnings from both Troels Lund Poulsen (V) and Mette Frederiksen (S) about the need for increased investment in defense. The exact amount of future allocations remains a key question for Danish politics.
