Danish Prime Minister responds to recent attack, acknowledging the impact it has had on her well-being.

Copenhagen: In a recent interview, the Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, opened up about her experience being attacked by a man last week. She shared that she is still in the process of recovering from the incident.

"I'm not quite back to my normal self yet," Frederiksen shared with broadcaster DR on Tuesday. However, she reassured the public that she is still able to fulfill her duties as prime minister, primarily working from her office.

The attack occurred on Friday evening in the center of Copenhagen, where the 46-year-old prime minister was punched by a man. As a result, she suffered a minor whiplash injury. The perpetrator, a 39-year-old man, was quickly arrested by the police and is now facing charges of hitting Frederiksen on the upper arm.

According to the Danish news agency Ritzau, the man was under the influence of alcohol and other drugs at the time of the incident. He is a Polish citizen who has been residing in Denmark for a significant amount of time. However, in court, the man denied any wrongdoing and even expressed his admiration for Frederiksen, calling her "a really good prime minister." He also claimed to be surprised to run into her on the street.

The police are currently investigating the assault and do not believe it was politically motivated. This incident has sparked concern for the safety of political figures in Denmark, but the Prime Minister's office has stated that Frederiksen will continue to carry out her duties as usual.
