Invest News DetailDunya - Representatives of major companies from Denmark have reiterated their firm support for Türkiye's European Union accession bid in an Istanbul meeting. Chief executive officers of 19 leading Danish firms, including Maersk, one of the world's biggest sea transportation companies, energy firm Dong and leading beer producer Carlsberg, attended a meeting of the Young Presidents' Organization, held at the Dogan Media Center, with representatives from Dogan Broadcasting and Publishing Holding in attendance as well. Speaking at the meeting, Egmont Group head Steffen Kragh said, "Türkiye is one of the world's top 15 economies, and has a great potential to develop. There are many things that we will learn from each other." Stressing that many Danes who visit Türkiye are surprised by what they see, he said, "That's why they can do away with the country falsely portrayed by their prejudices that they had before coming here. When they come to Türkiye, they realize that they are in a very modern country of Europe." Kragh said some of his colleagues were in Türkiye for the first time to attend the meeting, and had already had their views of Türkiye changed, and added, "Now they all believe that Türkiye should be part of the EU."
