This bachelor thesis called "Danish and Swedish reactions to the Brexit referendum outcome" deals with the immediate reactions of two member countries on the outcome of British referendum and reflections on initial negotiations. The decision of British voters did not only cause a political earthquake on British side, the departure of Great Britain has no parallel in sixty year history of European communities. It is clear, that this decision will have major implications on both the internal cohesion of the European Union and the position of each member state towards European integration. The aim of this thesis is to analyse declarations and statements of Danish and Swedish government officials and observe, whether these participants mention these particular factors, that being the economic interconnection, similar perception of European integration and certain closeness in EU decision-making as their reasons. Both Denmark and Sweden had always been considered Great Britain's closest allies, they share significant economic bonds between each other and have always been considered as countries with the highest inclination towards Euroscepticism, for this reason I expect these factors to be discussed. Thesis concludes that these factors do appear, mainly aspect concerning economic interests.
