The Embassy of Denmark in China has announced the appointment of Jonas Bruntse Dahl Nielsen as Minister Counsellor, Head of Trade, and Coordinator of the Trade Council China. His arrival is expected to strengthen the embassy’s support for Danish companies operating in the Chinese market.
Nielsen has been with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 2017, gaining experience in economic diplomacy, strategy, and organisational development.
