Denmark–Egypt relations are foreign relations between Denmark and Egypt. Denmark has an embassy in Cairo,〔(Danish embassy in Cairo )〕 and consulates in Suez, Port Said and Cairo.〔(Danish representatives in Egypt )〕 Egypt has an embassy in Copenhagen. Both countries are members of the Union for the Mediterranean. The Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy have caused a diplomatic crisis between Denmark and Egypt.〔(Egypt discontinues dialogue with Denmark on human rights )〕 After Per Stig Møllers visit to President Hosni Mubarak in 2008, Mubarak described the bilateral relations as good and fruitful and expressed his support for its further expansion, especially in economic cooperation.〔(Danish foreign minister visits Egypt ) Embassy of Denmark, Cairo〕 ==Political relations== The Egyptian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Aboul Gheit, wrote several letters to the Prime Minister of Denmark and to the United Nations Secretary-General explaining that they did not want the Prime Minister to prosecute ''Jyllands-Posten''; they only wanted "an official Danish statement underlining the need for and the obligation of respecting all religions and desisting from offending their devotees to prevent an escalation which would have serious and far-reaching consequences". Subsequently, the Egyptian government played a leading role in defusing the issue in the Middle East. Egyptian newspaper al-Fagr reprints some of the cartoons, describing them as a "continuing insult" and a "racist bomb". and argued that they are blasphemous to people of the Muslim faith, are intended to humiliate a Danish minority, or are a manifestation of ignorance about the history of Western imperialism. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Denmark–Egypt relations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
