The incident sparked global outrage, prompting Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif to express his condemnation on social media. He emphasized that violence has no place in politics and extended his heartfelt wishes for Frederiksen’s swift recovery.
“I condemn the cowardly attack on Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. Violence has no place in politics. Wishing her a speedy recovery,” tweeted Shehbaz Sharif.
The motive behind the attack remains unclear, and the assailant is scheduled to appear in court. Incidents of political violence in Denmark are rare, with a recent notable occurrence being an attempted assassination of the Slovak Prime Minister.
