Conservatives replace rapporteur following case of sale of Ecco shoes | BT Politik - www.bt.dk The Conservatives' defense spokesman Niels Flemming Hansen resigns from his post. This happens because Niels Flemming Hansen is a co-owner of the shoe stores Holst Sko, which sells Ecco shoes, among other things. It writes. Conservatives also confirm this to B.T. 'As many probably know, ECCO has decided not to withdraw its activities in Russia, which has rightly led to much criticism. I myself am a co-owner of the shoe stores Holst Sko, which has ECCO on some of the shelves, 'explains Niels Flemming Hansen in a written statement to Vejle County Folkeblad. 'This has led to Doubts being raised by Vejle County's Folkeblad about where my loyalty lies, when I am also the defense spokesman for the Conservative People's Party. I have therefore, in agreement with my group chairman, announced that I want to resign as defense spokesman for the Conservative People's Party. ' Ecco forms such a large part of the shoe sales in Holst Sko that it will mean a real firing of the employees if the brand is removed from the shelves. Niels Flemming Hansen has therefore taken the initiative to donate his own share of the Ecco sale. ECCO has been in a shitstorm since Russia's invasion of Ukraine because they continue to operate in Russia. It will be Rasmus Jarlov who will take over the post from Niels Flemming Hansen. This is also confirmed by the Conservatives' press department to B.T.
