World's worst foreign minister

Lene Espersen, Denmark’s deputy prime minister, is under pressure to stand down after a string of gaffes led to her being dubbed the world’s worst foreign minister.
Miss Espersen has missed multiple high-level summits since March, including three meetings with Hillary Clinton, the US Secretary of State, and the Kabul Conference on the future of Afghanistan.
She has missed 13 key meetings in recent years and was this week called the “world’s worst” foreign minister by a German newspaper.
Luck appears to have deserted the 44-year-old mother of two. She missed the Kabul summit because her plane was diverted to Kazakhstan after a rocket attack closed Kabul airport. Uzbekistan then closed its airspace to her flight. She claimed she would speak to the Uzbek ambassador to Copenhagen but that role does not exist.
She once failed to attend a meeting of Arctic countries because she was on an Easter break in Majorca. She has previously defended missing meetings by saying it was typical practice in many cases to send another foreign representative in her place.
