About the Embassy

U.S. Mission to Denmark

This Embassy Mission Statement articulates the shared commitment of everyone at this Embassy and all agencies of the Federal Government represented here. The statement may appear general in its tone, yet it is sweeping in its scope and reflects the role and responsibility each of us has, every day we are here, to promote American values and advance America's interests. It reflects the obligation we owe to the American people and incorporates the policy priorities of our President. It demonstrates the importance we place on working with our partners in Denmark and beyond to fight terror and the enemies of human dignity, advance our shared political and humanitarian goals, and assist American citizens and businesses as they pursue their charitable and commercial interests. This Mission Statement is the result of input from everyone at this Embassy. Together, we pledge ourselves to its pursuit.
