Jugoslovensko-danski odnosi 1920-1941.
Abstract
Kingdom of Serbia opened its Legation in Copenhagen after the October Revolution in Russia and later, diplomatic relations between the two countries were intensified. However, the Legation was closed already in 1920. The lack of more intensive diplomatic relations was not an obstacle for businessmen from both countries to develop economic relations, although the participation of Denmark in the Yugoslav trade exchange was pretty low. The Agreement on Trade between Yugoslavia and Denmark was signed in 1937, giving an additional impetus to their economic relations. When Denmark recognized the Independent State of Croatia, proclaimed under the Nazi order in Europe, Yugoslav Government in exile interupted diplomatic relations with Denmark in May 1941. Relations between the two countries were reestablished after the Second World War under new international circumstances.
