Denmark–Palestine relations refers to the contacts between Denmark and the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Denmark has a representative office in Ramallah.[1] The State of Palestine has a semi diplomatic Mission with the rank of ambassador in Copenhagen.[2] Denmark remains the only country in Scandinavia that has not recognized Palestine's existence and rights to sovereignty.

Recognition of the State of Palestine

Main articles: International recognition of the State of Palestine and Palestine 194

On 29 November 1947, Denmark voted for the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine, supporting the division of Palestine into two states.[3] In December 2010, the Palestinian National Authority asked Denmark to recognize the state with its 1967 borders.[4] In January 2011, Denmark with Norway said that they would soon recognize the State of Palestine,[5] and on 9 March, Mahmoud Abbas visited Denmark for the first time, to discuss bilateral relations between Denmark and Palestine. During the visit, Danish Foreign Minister Lene Espersen stated that Denmark was not considering recognizing the State of Palestine.[6] On 29 May, the Social Democrats revealed that if they win the next parliamentary election, they will recognize the State of Palestine.[7][8]

On 15 September 2011, the Social Democrats won the 2011 Danish elections, and expressed support for the Palestinian membership in the UN, but waited for a joint decision in the European Union.[9] On 22 September 2012, hundreds of Danes demonstrated in front of the Folketing. The Palestinian ambassador to Denmark said: "This recognition will enhance Danish-Arab relations and will reflect support of the Danish people for the Palestinian bid to UN". [sic][10] In October 2012, Denmark abstained from voting in the resolution for Palestine in the UNESCO.[11]

Danish development assistance

Denmark provides assistance to the occupied Palestinian Territories in the following three ways.[12]

  • Denmark continues to participate in the peace process, promoting the Roadmap for Peace among other initiatives. The PLO’s Negotiations Affairs Department Archived 2020-02-03 at the Wayback Machine is on such peace building initiative which Denmark supports.[12]
  • Denmark supports the creation of a sovereign, democratic, and peaceful Palestinian state. Denmark currently supports organizations which are bringing about the preconditions for these ideals, such as fighting corruption, increasing human rights, and ensuring free and fair elections.[12]
  • Denmark seeks to improve the living conditions in Palestine through supporting private sector development. Denmark is currently supporting smaller local councils in the Jenin area through amalgamation and capacity building. An increase in economic integration between the West Bank and Israel is also a goal of the Danish.[12]
  • In May 2017, the Palestinian Authority via its organisation Women's Affairs Technical Committee (WATC) named a women's center in the town of Burqa after Mughrabi and celebrated her as a role model.[13] The center was built with the aid of the government of Norway and UN Women. The Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs started its own investigations of WATC and found it had withheld central information about the naming of the centre and terminated the working relationship with WATC. As a result of the findings, the Danish ministry also ceased its funding of 23 other NGOs in Palestine as of 1 January 2018.[13][14]

Palestinians in Denmark

In the 1980s, During the Lebanese Civil War, 19,000 Palestinian refugees fled to Denmark. 1000 of them were from Lubya.[15]
