Untitled[edit]

The king had a merely symbolical role but ordered the army and navy to stop fighting against the German invaders? Something is wrong with this picture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.222.218.157 (talk) 22:56, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hagiography[edit]

The above commenter is correct, this is a ridiculous hagiography that completely minimises any responsibility Stauning had for the complete failure of Denmark to defend itself on 9 April 1940 for which Stauning (not the figurehead King, for pete's sake!) was ultimately responsible. See Hitler Strikes North amongst other sources for much, much more critical coverage of Stauning's role. FOARP (talk) 15:26, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
