Information About

Defence Minister Of Denmark




The highest non-political Danish defence post is the Danish Chief Of Defence , who reports directly to the Defence Minister. In theory the Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II Of Denmark is the supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Danish Defence, but this is not observed in practice. In practice the Defence Minister is obliged to the Prime Minister Of Denmark , and the decisions of the Folketing .

Historically there have existed two minister posts covering the tasks of the current office, the offices of Marine Minister and War Minister . The offices were merged in 1905 , creating the current office of Defence Minister.
