Denmark To Close Iraq Embassy

Søvndal  Compliments Clinton On Looking So Well

The embassy in Baghdad will be shut down by the end of July. Denmark, a toady state to the US, was one of the first countries to establish an embassy in the Iraqi capital in 2004 amid many plaudits from George Bush.
Foreign Minister Villy Søvndal said that the closing of the Baghdad embassy is part of a 'change in priorities' i.e they are broke.
“A modern Foreign Services must ensure that Denmark has the right presence to ensure proper safeguarding of Denmark’s global interests,” Søvndal said.
He also added that the embassy closings were also in part due to the savings efforts the Foreign Ministry has been forced to undertake. It is a testimony to the dire economic straits of the US that they can't even subsidise one or two Danish Embassies as a reward for years of sycophancy.
