Bolstering 75 years of Strategic Brilliance


Celebrating 75 years of diplomatic relations, India and Denmark have embarked on a journey to strengthen their partnership across various sectors. During a recent meeting at the Raisina Dialogue 2024 in New Delhi, India's External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Denmark's Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen unveiled a joint logo to mark this significant milestone.


Both nations have set their sights on expanding cooperation in defence, security, and new technology. They are also exploring the potential for a Danish contribution to the Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative. The Indo-Danish Green Strategic Partnership, a pivotal agreement, has already yielded significant outcomes and is set for a mid-term review in 2024. The partnership, initiated in 2021, has led to the establishment of a new Centre of Excellence on Smart Water Resource Modelling and collaboration in medical product regulation.


This growing relationship is further cemented by the signing of a mobility and migration partnership agreement, demonstrating a commitment to enhance people-to-people ties. Plans are underway to explore a partnership for recruiting Indian healthcare professionals in Denmark.


The visit of Foreign Minister Rasmussen and his delegation to India signifies the deepening of Indo-Danish relations, which have flourished in recent years. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's official visit to Denmark in 2022 and Danish Prime Minister Frederiksen's visit to India in 2021 have been instrumental in fostering this bond. As the existing Joint Action Plan approaches its conclusion in 2026, both nations are working towards a more comprehensive Green Strategic Partnership.


The joint efforts of India and Denmark in defence, technology, and green initiatives reflect a shared commitment to sustainable growth and global cooperation. This partnership not only benefits the two countries but also sets an example of fruitful collaboration for the world to emulate, fostering a brighter future built on mutual respect and shared goals.
