Venstre leader Troels Lund Poulsen says his party has no interest in joining a government with the Social Democrats, the Radical Left and the Socialist People's Party, which appears to be Frederiksen's first choice as she explores forming a government.
"It goes without saying that we cannot be part of such a government. We also announced that today," says Troels Lund Poulsen, who is otherwise taciturn, after being invited to negotiations with Frederiksen.
Venstre, which was responsible for its worst-ever election result with 10.1 percent of the vote in Tuesday's election, formed a government with the Social Democrats and the Moderates for almost three and a half years.
