Greek State Visit to Denmark: quiet departure day 3

Yesterday there was a low-key departure from Denmark of President Karolos Papoulias and Mrs May Panou Papoulias at the end of the state visit. The presidential couple took formal leave of Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik at Fredensborg Palace at 9.30am and then President Papoulias went to the Danish Parliament which included a meeting with Danish Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen at Christiansborg and a press conference. Mrs May Panous Papoulias visited a film studio, the film school Station Next, the Danish Film Institute and the film studio Film-X. Mrs Papoulias then had a guided tour at Rosenborg Castle and saw the crown jewels.
