Lars Løkke Rasmussen (Moderaterne, M) sees no problem with the fact that his son, Bergur Løkke Rasmussen, has been hired as a consultant for the British defense giant Babcock, which is trying to win a multibillion-krone contract to build frigates for the Royal Danish Navy.

In recent days, several politicians have criticized the fact that Bergur Løkke Rasmussen has been hired as a consultant – or lobbyist – for Babcock, which is currently competing with, among others, German, French, and Spanish suppliers to win a huge contract to buy a small handful of frigates at a total price tag of up to 50 billion kroner.
