Denmark's outgoing Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen (S) will make another attempt to form a government.

This is the result of Saturday's party leadership meetings at Amalienborg Palace, where King Frederik X was to appoint a new exploratory leader to find a solution.

"It's been two months since the general election in Denmark. Now I think a government should be formed," says Frederiksen.

Liberal Left party leader Troels Lund Poulsen gave up his plans to form a government on Friday after the Moderates' Lars Løkke Rasmussen did not support his proposal.

Frederiksen will try to form a center-left government, consisting of the Social Democrats, the Socialists, the Radical Left and the Moderates, she says.

She expects to resume negotiations on Sunday.
