Denmark, Greenland and Trump
Digest more
The high-stakes meeting comes shortly after Greenland and Denmark's leaders portrayed a united front against Trump's takeover threats.
Greenland’s prime minister said he was trying to end a "geopolitical crisis" by declaring Greenland wants to be part of Denmark, not the U.S.
It is the strongest statement by a leader of the Danish territory since US President Donald Trump renewed plans to annex it.
Trump insists the U.S. must take control of Greenland to prevent Russia or China from doing the same — an argument Beijing dismissed Monday as "an excuse" to pursue territorial ambitions.
Greenland's prime minister has reiterated that the territory is not for sale as the Trump administration continues to express interest in acquiring the island for national security purposes.
Greenland’s leader said that, if given the choice between the United States and Denmark, the Greenlanders would rather stick with the Danes.
The United States special envoy to Greenland posted a misleading historical claim about the territory he is tasked with planning to take over. “History matters,” Gov. Jeff Landry wrote on X, before sharing information that was not historically accurate.
