Summary
Greenland’s Prime Minister Múte B. Egede stated that Greenlanders want independence and neither want to be Danes nor Americans, following Donald Trump’s comments about acquiring the territory for strategic reasons.
Trump suggested using force or economic pressure, alarming Denmark and Europe.
Danish PM Mette Frederiksen reaffirmed Greenland’s sovereignty, stating “Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders.”
The US sees Greenland as key in Arctic geopolitics, given its resources and location, but Egede stressed Greenland’s identity as distinct from Denmark, the US, or NATO politics.
All agreements should have a clause in them moving forward that any comments from the USA president or congress memeber about taking over the other parties land is an immediate ending of the agreement with all property in said territory immediately becoming the property of other nation.
