- Abstract
After September 11, Great Britain has become Denmark's primary military partner, and Danish military contributions to international operations has most often been anchored in a close and cooperative military and political British-Danish relationship. This article investigates that relationship and asks how Great Britain becomes Denmark's primary partner. The answer is that cooperation develops more because of a range of discrete military, bureaucratic and political reasons than because of any long-term strategic aims. On that basis the article discusses the foreign policy consequences of the close relationship and concludes that cooperating with Great Britain often in itself turns into a priority in how Denmark participates in international operations. »Are the Brits in?« becomes an important question in deciding where, when and how Danish military power is used.
