According to authorities, the attack is likely not politically motivated. A 39-year-old Polish man has been remanded in custody until June 20 after appearing before a Copenhagen court. Frederiksen herself stated that she was "saddened and shaken" by the incident but otherwise fine.

I strongly condemn this cowardly act of aggression.
Disturbing to hear that Prime Minister Frederiksen was attacked in a public square in Copenhagen. We cannot dismiss or normalize acts of aggression like this. It's dangerous to our democracies.
I was so shocked at the news of you being assaulted tonight. I condemn this despicable act which goes against everything we believe and fight for in Europe. I wish you strength and courage - I know you have plenty of both.
Violence does not belong in a democratic debate.
I am saddened and shaken by the incident yesterday, but otherwise I am fine.
I strongly condemn this act and wish Mette Frederiksen a speedy recovery.
The attack on Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen is an intolerable act of violence that represents an attack on the heart of democratic values.
Tonight's assault on the Danish prime minister is appalling. Violence has no place in politics. Keep strong, Mette!
