Senior doctors and lawmakers are expressing shock and confusion regarding the management of the National Hospital, Rigshospitalet, particularly within its transplantation department. One senior surgeon described a minister's recent statement on the matter as incomprehensible, while politicians admitted to being bewildered by the leadership decisions at the country's most prominent medical facility. The government is facing pressure on two further fronts as ministers review new figures on crimes committed by immigrants and the Climate Council warns that environmental policy lacks a basis in reality. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has added to the criticism by confirming she will not attend the upcoming climate summit. In parliament, Morten Messerschmidt has offered the government an expensive route to a majority. The Danish People's Party leader is open to negotiating tax cuts, provided the government lowers the price of gasoline and diesel, a proposal that would trade green credentials for political survival.
