Borgen

Where are you going?

- I want to join. - To drink coffee with me?

No, damn it. I want to go down and fling the bowhead whale. Do you want to join?

No, I'm taking a break from it. I'll be here shortly.

- See you. - See you.

The initial investigations looks very promising.

The one from today would like to confirm my expectations, let's see.

It looks good. Congratulations, boys. You have found oil!

You're under pressure. 13.30 Danish Business for 30 minutes. Then DC for a quarter of an hour.

Say the head of department or Rasmus, and I want to talk to him today.

When talking about the sun.

You must read my mail about the Danish Chamber of Commerce before the meeting.

Will Katrine Fønsmarks accession reception on TV1 dropped?

No.

I can move something tomorrow. Can we move dinner with your son?

I do not see my children often. I will not cancel them.

You solve it. Now I just have to have five minutes.

Press conference on the partnership agreement with China at the Zoo in 30 minutes.

Minister of Trade Lao and the business attaché comes.

There will be 40-50 pieces. Journalists and business people.

We do not need to talk about Tibet.

- When do we start? - Seven minutes.

The interview with you and the Prime Minister. Great pictures.

"The future is female" is hers hashtag. Now I'm part of the brand.

"Government Power Women, Prime Minister Signe Kragh -

and Foreign Minister Birgitte Nyborg divides the world among themselves. "

- There will be no more. - That's damn weird.

Welcome.

Today we celebrate that of China and Denmark has entered into a partnership agreement -

- that will link our two countries even closer together.

It's right here -

- and just like our teddy bear friend here is it in black and white.

Why did no one come? Is something happening that we know nothing about?

I do not think.

See. There it is again. "The future is female." Every time.

"Then we give up the ball. We make life easier for families with children. "

The Prime Minister sent us an email at 9.56 on a press conference 10.15.

On top of ours? It's not the force alright. It looks like obstruction.

- They have found oil in Greenland. - Congratulations.

Or is it something we are happy about?

It can be a huge problem. We need to know how they handle it.

That was fast. Do you call to say congratulations?

- It's your wettest and oldest dream. - Well also the Danish government?

No.

We believe that fossil fuels belongs to the past.

Well, what is your ministerial car driving on?

You know very well what that will mean for our independence.

- The press here will be interested. - Wait with the press.

You have found something that was before too expensive and cumbersome to utilize.

The last time I checked was raw materials something we sovereignly decide over.

So we do not coordinate press strategy with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Set up a meeting with the Arctic Ambassador.

We do not think you should go out with it, before you know it.

- It is noted. Take care. - You too. We appreciate ...

- Did he just hang up? - It was a mistake.

It's only your second week, but you must not be diplomatic.

Yes, he hung up.

Gather everyone and set up a briefing with the Arctic Ambassador.

Do you know if we have more vases? Do we have more vases?

- Who is it from? - TV1's board of directors.

Listen up: "Katrine Fønsmark joins today -

- the country's most prestigious journalistic leadership position -

as head of TV1's news department. "

"There are high expectations to Fønsmark -

- for TV1 The news has fallen sharply in viewership shares. "

"Fønsmark's real task will be to save the former flagship. "

I'll probably get a handle on that.

Back to the speech.

Bernstein.

He said journalism was the best achievable version of the truth ...

It has always been my guideline.

It is so important ... Why do you look weird?

It sounds like a lecture at the School of Journalism.

Okay.

You take over a team that is smoked from the Super League down to the 1st division.

- What would you say to them? - "I know nothing about football."

What would you say to them?

Now we're back in the Super League. We must be the best.

Michael Laugesen, how is the new one government managed it so far?

Signe Kragh has done it very nice.

She is made of Teflon. Nothing burns on.

The Government is cast as a film, being whipped to success.

Women, other ethnic backgrounds, other sexualities -

- a minister in a wheelchair ... The shit works.

What do you say to Nyborgs New Democrats?

Nyborg has let itself be driven out on a siding. A political hasbeen -

who should find a younger replacement.

Michael, you're a private friend with Signe Kragh.

You have a hard time with Nyborg.

The lady's time is coming to an end. That are the few who remember her ...

We just take the table around. Kaare?

- I also have to introduce myself? - Not everyone knows who you are.

Kaare Mathiesen is our Arctic ambassador. Beside him ...

You have to apologize.

- Rasmus, maybe you should ... - No, that's fine.

Asger Holm Kirkegaard, Kaares souschef.

Asger is our Greenland expert. Here is Katinka from the Legal Department.

Lars, Regitze, Nina, Claus. Oliver knows I.

- Rasmus. I'm the head of department. - What do we know?

They have long been looking for oil.

Then we do not need to talk about it. Where did they find the oil?

It's page 13.

- West Greenland, by Disko Bay. - Size of the find?

We do not have the full overview, however talking to geological experts today.

The distribution of revenue between us and Greenland is not in place.

Yes, it's complicated.

- An agreement has never been made. - Law is just looking at it.

- I'm sure we'll not be cheated. - What do you mean by that?

They are sensitive to everything, coming from Copenhagen.

What is probably a little sensitive is, that the borehole is right here.

A little north of Ilulissat Icefjord -

- one of Greenland's natural gems, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

- It could be a climate disaster. - Press management is crucial.

Hans Eliassen may not report anything.

Climate and environment mean nothing for the Greenlanders.

Kaare, the climate means a lot to me and thus for the government.

Denmark has decided over Greenland for 300 years -

- so they have a certain historical right to that sensitivity.

- Thanks. - Everyone knows what to do.

We convene a meeting, when more details are in place.

Asger? Can I just borrow it there?

- Yes. - Thanks.

He is our representative in the Arctic Council and all negotiations.

- He's only been sitting for a year and a half. - The Greenlanders are tired of him.

- I'm already tired of him too. - Kaare is an experienced diplomat.

Oliver? You must not call me ministers. Just say Birgitte.

Like those abbreviations. Do not do that.

Received. The security service will secure your home today at 18.30.

It fits really badly today.

- Your ex-husband, Philip, is here. - You have the reception in 47 minutes.

But ...?

But there is always time for your kids and your ex-husband. He can get 24 minutes.

- You're just a little late. - Thanks.

I inform UM's DC that that the Minister would like to cancel PET.

It's smart to park you as Minister of Foreign Affairs -

- so you can not threaten her domestic policy.

This morning she put on her press conference oven i mit. What the hell does that look like?

You could never do that yourself have invented as prime minister.

Did you come just to enjoy the view?

No. That ...

Yes I have ...

Ida has become pregnant.

- God! How crazy! - She's only 44.

But you are ... You can not, so you have to borrow ...

- We do not need to talk about that. - You take another ride in the carousel.

It got behind both of us, but we are happy for each other, so ...

Birgitte, you have to come.

I just wanted to say it right for you.

The Greenlandic Foreign Minister has announced an oil discovery in Greenland.

I have personally signed agreement in West Greenland -

- and I look forward to working with you with the Canadian Oil Company.

Think if this is the first step against independence for Greenland.

Our own Greenlandic heritage silver.

It smoked out half an hour ago. All media have it.

Although the National Board recently shelved future oil projects -

- and is a party to the Paris Agreement, so Hans Eliassen thinks well -

- the oil can be extracted, because the permit is from 2017.

Call Hans.

The news meets with joy in Greenland, and Prime Minister Signe Kragh say:

I would like to say congratulations to the Greenlandic people with the find.

There are some environmental consequences ...

"There are enough environmental consequences"!

There are technological solutions ...

Please just shut up! Is there anything, the Prime Minister does not comment on?

Formally, Greenland belongs under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister.

It's not so strange, that she speaks.

The Commonwealth belongs to them. The Arctic is under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

I am also more climate ambitious than Signe. The case is on my desk.

What the hell ?!

- You'm early on it. - Hi Katrine.

- You look like one on the first day of school. - Hey, Narciza.

- I'm glad you got the job. - I look forward to the collaboration.

- There is sugar in the coffee. - Then it will not be bitter.

- Hi. Mikkel. Welcome to. - Thank you.

How nice it looks.

Yes, you could.

I just want to say a few words here on my first day.

The journalistic world has fundamentally changed.

News occurs more often on the social media.

Fake news is a part of everyday life. We can not trust what we see.

Unfortunately, in a few cases you have not been able to trust what we have brought.

TV1 was once the most respected journalistic workplace in the country.

We have to be that again.

My mission is to create the best setting -

- so that you can deliver the best content ... And there was my daughter.

It's nice to have one to hold in the hand. Then you can do a little more.

I will also hold your hand, and that's why my office is right here.

You can always come to me. An important reason for -

that I can be here is, that someone also takes care of me and us.

So does the old Marxist economist. Thanks for the help, my darling.

As the red tenant I am, can I tell -

- that when Thatcher took office as Prime Minister -

- she insisted on doing dinner for her husband every day.

- So I'm looking forward, honey. - It will be new times at home.

- Cheers to that. - Cheers.

- You made it! - Yes almost.

- And I had bottles with me. - A gift you yourself received?

I have removed the old card and written a new one.

- Is it cool in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? - I have the time of my life.

I have no children at home. No man who feels overlooked.
