Denmark's Social Democratic leader and acting prime minister Mette Frederiksen said on Wednesday she had edged closer to forming a new government across the political divide after dropping negotiations with two traditional left-wing allies.
Frederiksen, whose centre-left Social Democratic Party won 27.5% of the votes in Denmark's Nov. 1 general election, making it the biggest group among the dozen parties in parliament, said she would begin "concrete talks" with main opposition party, the Liberal Party, later on Wednesday.
