| | Anders Fogh Rasmussen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Rasmussen held the rotating presidency of the European Union from July to December 2002 during which he proved his dedication to a pro-EU agenda and the guiding principles of the Ellemann-Jensen doctrine. | | | In 1992 Rasmussen resigned from his ministerial posts after a court of enquiry had decided that he had provided the Folketing with inaccurate and incomplete information. | | | His Liberal (Venstre) Party won power in the November 2001 election, defeating the government of Poul Nyrup Rasmussen and enabling him to form the Cabinet of Anders Fogh Rasmussen I. |
