The document summarizes the 2011 Danish general election and the subsequent government formation process. The Social Democrats emerged as the largest party and Helle Thorning-Schmidt was tasked with forming a new government. After two weeks of negotiations, a new government was expected to be presented comprising the Social Democrats, Socialist People's Party, and likely the Social Liberals. The parliamentary situation and lifespan of the new government would depend on maintaining support from the Red-Green Alliance.
