The Frederiksen II Cabinet (colloquially, the SVM government; Danish: SVM-regeringen) is the current Government of Denmark, which took office on 15 December 2022. It succeeded the Frederiksen I Cabinet following the 2022 general election.
Headed by Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, it is a centrist grand coalition[1] consisting of the Social Democrats (S), Venstre (V) and the Moderates (M). It was announced on 13 December following a record 42 days of negotiations.[2][3] The government is supported by the Union Party and the Social Democratic Party from the Faroe Islands, as well as Siumut and Inuit Ataqatigiit from Greenland.[4] As the government has 93 of the 179 seats in the Folketing with its support parties, it effectively operates as a majority government.[5]
It is the first time in more than 40 years the Social Democrats and the Liberals (Venstre), who are usually rivals, are in a government together.[6]
