    For 66 years, Queen Margrethe has enjoyed her Greek cigarettes.

    But now she has cheated for the last time.

    The Danish court confirms for The extra sheet that the 83-year-old retired.

    A back operation in February must have contributed to the decision.

    – It is correct that the Queen has not smoked since the operation, says communications manager Lene Balleby.

    As recently as February, the Queen said she had no plans to stop smoking the Greek cigarettes from Karelia.

    – I think the beauty of these cigarettes is that they make all other cigarettes taste bad. When I was young I smoked English Virginia cigarettes, but after my father’s death I realized they were more strong than they were good.

    – Denmark cannot donate combat aircraft all by itself. An alliance of countries is required if we are to be able to donate and maintain a combat air force to Ukraine, says Troels Lund Poulsen and continues:

    – We can’t decide that alone either, it requires American permission because the F16 is an American-developed aircraft.
