Staff at the US embassy in Copenhagen have removed 44 flags decorated with the names of Danish soldiers that were killed in Afghanistan, put up after US President Donald Trump’s recent criticism of allied countries’ military contributions.
Copenhagen’s mayor for environmental affairs, Line Barfoed called the move “disrespectful”
No that’s not petty, that’s disgraceful. 44 foreign people have given their lives for your interests. They gain nothing from this.
