He also served as his party\u2019s parliamentary spokesperson from 1991 to 1993, and again, from 2001 to 2002.\r\n\r\nPreviously, from 1975 to 1981, Mr. Lykketoft headed a department of the Danish Labour Movement\u2019s Economic Council \u2013 an economic think-tank established by the Danish Confederation of Trade Unions and the Social Democratic Party.\r\n\r\nSince 2010, Mr. Lykketoft has been a regular foreign affairs analyst and commentator with Danish TV2 News, appearing with former Foreign Minister Uffe Ellemann-Jensen of the Danish Liberal Party on the weekly news magazine Ellemann & Lykketoft.\r\n\r\nBorn in Copenhagen on 9 January 1946, Mr. Lykketoft will turn 70 during the Assembly\u2019s seventieth session, a fact he highlighted during his acceptance speech to the world body upon his election. A graduate of the University of Copenhagen with a Master\u2019s degree in economics, he has written books and articles on subjects ranging from foreign policy and security to economics and the \u201cDanish Model\u201d for employment and social welfare, including two books he co-authored with his wife, the Danish journalist and writer, Mette Holm.
