– It is also important for me to emphasise that telecommunications is an acquired area. The choice of 5G-supplier is therefore in the Faroe islands itself.
– As foreign minister, I will make it clear that it is vital that foreign policy is based on the fact that both we and our partners show mutual respect and follow the international rules of the game.
– It is the foundation of Danish foreign policy. It is how we work with other countries and how we work with China, as we have a good partnership with, the foreign minister says.
