The statement highlights that the ceremony was a resounding success. The spokesperson pointed out that the international press echoed the event. In particular, they emphasized Queen Mary's approachable and elegant demeanor.

Many media outlets compared Mary to Queen Letizia of Spain. This comparison is relevant because Letizia is one of the most beloved monarchs in Europe. The Danish queen showed a very similar style, which makes her a special figure.

The news is also important because it opens the vacation period for Queen Mary. Although she will still participate in one more event during the summer, this was her last major event before the break. The royal house wanted to make this point clear in its statement.

Denmark's assumption of the EU presidency was celebrated with a dinner and a solemn ceremony. It was a protocol moment but full of symbolism for the country. The Danish monarchy thus showed its support for the new international role.

During the event, Queen Mary stood out for her naturalness and charisma. Attendees commented that she showed great interest in the conversations and in the guests. This reinforced her image as a modern and committed consort.

The presidency of the Council of the EU lasts six months (6 months) and rotates among the member countries. Denmark will have to lead important debates and agreements during this time. The active presence of the kings underscores the importance given to this responsibility.

Despite the break that will soon begin, the royal house confirms that the royal family could participate in other minor events. However, the ceremony in Aarhus is the official end of Mary's public agenda for now. This moment has left a positive impression on public opinion.

Ultimately, the statement highlights the significance of the event and Queen Mary's prominent role. Her public image is strengthened just as Denmark takes on a major responsibility in Europe. This event marks a turning point in her work as queen consort.
