Denmark’s prime minister got a dramatic boost in her latest approval rating as she is trying to deflect US President Donald Trump’s efforts to take over Greenland.

About 45% of Danish respondents said Mette Frederiksen is doing a good job running the Nordic country, up from 31% two months ago, according to the survey published Friday by broadcaster DR. It’s the highest backing for the 47-year-old premier in more than two years.
