‘Bittersweet moment’ as Denmark farewells ‘beloved’ Queen Margrethe

Sky News Reporter Julia Bradley says Queen Margrethe II’s abdication and Frederik X’s coronation is a “bittersweet moment”. “Because this is the moment when people are farewelling their beloved queen,” she said. “No one was expecting her to announce her abdication when she gave that speech." Margrethe II has signed the instrument of abdication, passing the crown to her son. King Frederik X has taken the throne following the formal abdication of his mother.
