Urgent statement about Prince Christian

In this context, the young prince has taken his permanent seat for the first time in the Council of State as the legitimate heir to the throne. He did so during a session held this very morning at the historic Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen.

This time, Prince Christian officially participated as a member of the Council of State. With both voice and vote, he took part in the deliberations of the highest body of Danish executive power.

During the meeting, the crown prince signed a solemn declaration, as required by the country's Constitution in Article 8. In it, he pledges to "unwaveringly respect the Constitution." This act symbolizes his formal acceptance of future responsibilities.

It should be remembered that Mary of Denmark's son had already signed a similar declaration on November 14, 2023, shortly after turning 18 years old. However, it was necessary to renew this institutional promise.

This act is much more than a simple formality. In fact, it represents the continuity and stability of the Danish monarchy, as well as the prince's preparation to assume in the future one of the country's most important roles.

His presence in the Council of State officially makes him an active part of the institutional machinery of the kingdom. From now on, his role ceases to be symbolic and becomes fully integrated into the political and constitutional functioning of the Danish monarchy.

With this declaration, Prince Christian reaffirms his commitment to the country's democratic and constitutional values. In addition, he also begins to chart, with determination and respect, the path toward his future crown. Denmark watches him with pride and attention.
