For should we say yes to abolishing the Danish defense reservation and fully participate in the EU's joint security and defense cooperation, or should we say no and maintain our military reservation? The election cards have of course also landed with several well-known Danes, so below we have gathered a number of celebrities who have agreed to give an insight into where they already have or intend to put their tick. See the list below. Radio and TV host Jørgen de Mylius »Yes, I agree. It must go away. ”TV personality Janni Ree 'Front page ladies' participant Janni Ree saw a debate about the defense reservation with Karsten Ree the day before the election. So now she is convinced that she should vote no. "If the reservation is abolished, then it will primarily be Africa we will send Danish soldiers to, and I do not think that is a good idea. But it is also about economics and prioritization, because a yes will also weaken NATO, because it will be taken from the NATO contribution, and the Danish defense is already so hard pressed and does not have the funds to participate in all the EU missions. . «Businessman Karsten Ree It does not surprise Karsten that his wife votes the opposite of him. But his positions do not stand to shake. 'I voted at 9 am this morning. That was a yes, of course. You can not drive 1st class on a 3rd class ticket, "says the multimillionaire, who himself has served in the military since the summer of 1963." Denmark always gets the tasks with such a red cross bag, and we do not really want to be with , when we go out and do something serious. Europe cannot continue to be defended by the United States. So I think it's time for us to pay the bill for ourselves and get a total defense in Europe so that we can have a European army of 100,000 men. "Artist Kristian von Hornsleth" I vote yes. To me, it is a deeply ideological thing that as long as the European Union can survive and we are all sitting at the same table, then there is a little more chance of some kind of idealistic peace. Even though the EU is a frayed and semi-corrupt institution, it is better that we talk together and take responsibility. "Celebrity hairdresser Dennis Knudsen" It is a difficult choice. I have for a long time thought I should vote no, but I have followed closely, and lately I have heard a lot of good arguments for voting yes. So now I have been down and put my cross by yes, «explains Dennis Knudsen. "Among other things, there was a lady from Bornholm who had experienced the war, who was in 'Go' tomorrow Denmark ', and she rightly said that when we are in big trouble, then there is no one to help us, so therefore we need a great unity. "Former 'Bachelor' Casper Berthelsen" I agree to abolish the Defense Reservation, as I believe that a common European military unity will make Denmark and the EU stronger, "Casper Berthelsen tells B.T. »By abolishing the Danish Defense Reservation, Denmark will retain its sovereignty, continue to be able to act independently and decide which operations we want to participate in. If the Defense Reservation is removed, Denmark will in future have an influence on where in the world the EU engages. veto and help decide on the future strategy for the EU's defense policy. "Businessman Asger Aamund" I vote no. A yes is to fail the reconstruction of the broken down Danish defense. ”Businesswoman and TV personality Katerina Pitzner For the diamond trader Katerina Pitzner, it will be a“ big NO THANK YOU ”for the abolition of the defense reservation. “I feel tried led behind the light, partly because of the timing of the election, which is conveniently announced at the start of the war in Ukraine, thus playing on the fears of the people. Partly because of the manipulative wording that was so conspicuous that it was changed - and because I do not think anyone can predict the consequences of a yes, "says Katerina Pitzner. "This election has nothing to do with Denmark's security, as some politicians want us to believe," says Katerina Pitzner. B.T. have asked a large number of celebrities where their crosses land for the vote on the defense reservation. Among others, Dennis Knudsen, Mette Reismann, Kristian von Hornsleth, Katerina Pitzner and Jørgen De Mylius have the answer. Influencer Mascha Vang "I am voting yes because it is the right thing to do for the future and because I trust that our politicians will make the right choices in given situations when and if it is needed." Former Member of Parliament for the Social Democrats and ' The luxury trap 'expert Mette Reismann »I vote in favor of abolishing the defense reservation. I have voted by mail. I vote yes because: The world has changed after February 24th. It is more uncertain. We must take responsibility for Denmark's security. We must enter Europe's defense and security cooperation wholeheartedly, "says Mette Reismann. “The best response to war and division is to strengthen the unity of the West. Denmark is too small a country to stand alone. The time is for unity; no reservations. «Media Take the test ABROAD POLICE: Warns Danes Berlingske Berlingske Media A / S Pilestræde 34 DK-1147 Copenhagen KTlf. +45 33 75 75 33 CVR.no .: 29 20 73 13
