- Digitaliseringsminister Caroline Stage (M) plans to reduce reliance on Microsoft in her ministry.
- Starting next month, half of the ministry's employees will use Libre Office instead of Microsoft Office.
- The goal is to completely phase out Microsoft Office by autumn.

- The Danish government is prioritizing 'digital sovereignty' in its digitalization strategy.
- Other political parties, like Enhedslisten and Alternativet, also advocate for reducing ties to US tech companies.
