That the Parliament expresses its sadness at the news of the devastating fire that occurred at the historic Danish Stock Exchange Building, commonly known as Børsen on 16 April 2024; notes what it sees as the cultural and historic value of the building given its status as one of the oldest buildings in Copenhagen, built in 1619, and its proximity to Christiansborg Palace, the seat of the Danish Parliament; congratulates the work of the Danish emergency services to ensure that no injuries or fatalities occurred in the fire, and supports the people of Denmark in the hope of seeing the building quickly repaired and restored.
