Waziri wa Dernmark ameelezea sababu na ameeleweka vizuri kwangu mimi sioni shida.Kwa wataalam wa haya madude ina maana Tanzania kwenye mambo ya kidiplomasia imefika kiasi cha kutemwa na mataifa ya maana kama Denmark, hii ina maana Watz watakua wanakuja Nairobi au Kampala, Uganda kwa huduma zozote zinazohusu ubalozi wa Denmark.
Mama Suluhu ana kazi kwa kweli, yaani mpaka airejeshe Tz kwa kiwango cha kujulikana tena naona ataloa jasho sana.
==============================
The Danish foreign service is to be restructured in order to be able to deliver on the Government’s priorities.
The restructuring means, among other things, that more of our missions will be bolstered, for example with regard to Denmark’s work in the EU, NATO, the UN, the Arctic, Africa, as well as with regard to our export initiatives. In all, 16 missions and 9 departments in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ headquarters in Copenhagen will be strengthened.
- My first priority as Minister of Foreign Affairs is to ensure the security and safety of the Danish people in a world where democracy, human rights, and our values are coming under increasing pressure. This reorganisation is to help us target the efforts we make, both here at home and out in the world, so that we can make the biggest possible difference. The grave development in Afghanistan the last couple of weeks calls for reflection, and we need time to digest and analyse this in cooperation with the Danish Parliament. Following that process, the government will at a later stage present a new foreign and security policy strategy, said Minister of Foreign Affairs Jeppe Kofod.
Prior to the reorganisation of the foreign service, the most comprehensive analysis of the work and the structure of the Danish foreign service since the Foreign Commission in 1989/90 at the end of the Cold War was carried out. The reorganisation will contribute to the implementation of Denmark’s new strategy for development cooperation "The world we share".
In connection with the reorganisation, the embassies in Argentina and Tanzania are also being closed, along with the Consulate General in Chongqing (China) and the trade mission in Barcelona (Spain). In addition, a number of efficiency measures will be carried out, for example in the areas of energy, procurement and properties.

Dar es Salaam. Tanzania has expressed dismay at the Danish government's decision to close its embassy in Tanzania by 2024.
Yesterday, the Danish government announced its intention to close its mission in Dar es Salaam in 2024, citing the adjustment of its international presence as one of the reasons.
A statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and East African Cooperation today said Ambassador Liberata Mulamula, expressed concern over the Danish move, especially considering the government's efforts to revive and strengthen diplomacy and relations with friendly countries, including Denmark.
Ambassador Mulamula also noted that the government's priority was to strengthen the business and investment climate in the country as well as improve democracy and the rule of law.
The minister made the remarks in Washington DC, USA (where she is on official trip) virtual meeting with Flemming Moller Mortensen, Denmark's minister for development co-operation following Mr Mortensen's request to speak to Ambassador Mulamula.
In her remarks, Minister Mulamula told Mr Mortensen that, “despite the steps taken by Denmark, it is Tanzania's hope that the Danish government will continue to work with Tanzania on various development issues including supporting Tanzania's agenda in the European Union, the United Nations and other international platforms.”
For his part, Mortensen said it was a difficult decision to reach saying that it stemmed from the Danish government's new priorities in development cooperation as outlined in its new strategy, "The World We Share."
According to Mortensen, the new strategy calls on Denmark to work more closely with fragile countries in conflict, displacement and irregular migration, especially in the Sahel, Horn of Africa and neighbouring countries which have political problems.
Similarly, it was reported that Mortensen said that with Tanzania having reached a milestone in development, Denmark has now decided to work closely with those countries that are most in need.
In addition, he explained that the move does not mean the relationship and friendship between Denmark and Tanzania was dying or fading.
“He assured Ambassador Mulamula that Denmark would continue to implement the financial commitments already made to Tanzania and would continue to support efforts to strengthen trade, economic growth, democracy and the private sector,” reads part of the statement
