At a news conference at 10.30 today, Villy Søvndal is to announce he is stepping down as leader of the Socialist People’s Party, but is expected to remain as foreign minister.
“The time has come to pass on the baton. I have been delighted to be at the head of the Socialist People’s Party during some very interesting and exciting years in Danish politics. I decided already before the last election that I would not be the one to head the party at the next election – the question was only when the time was right,” Søvndal says in a news release.
