COPENHAGEN (Reuters) – Soren Pape Poulsen, the leader of Denmark’s opposition Conservative People’s Party, died on Saturday after suffering a cerebral hemorrhage, his party said. He was 52.
Poulsen, a former justice minister, had collapsed during a party meeting and had been rushed to hospital, his party said in a statement.
“He collapsed in the middle of what he had devoted his life to … the last thing he experienced was a big round of applause from his party colleagues,” it said.
