Denmark announced plans to purchase hundreds of naval mines to strengthen its defense capability

Denmark will purchase several hundred naval mines to enhance the country's capabilities in internal waters as part of the NATO defense strategy. This was announced on March 29 by Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen.

"The acquisition of several hundred naval mines strengthens our defenses in Denmark's internal waters. This is crucial in light of the current security policy situation, where Denmark's geographical location plays a central role," the official website of the country's Defense Ministry quoted him as saying.

The head of the Danish Naval Command, Soren Kjeldsen, added that the naval mines should help strengthen Denmark's defense capability in the face of "uncertainty in the Baltic Sea." Delivery is expected in 2027-2029.
