The United States will not take over Greenland

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen reiterated her commitment to support Greenland as U.S. President Donald Trump continues to express interest in the semi-autonomous Danish territory.

Frederiksen arrived in Nuuk on Wednesday to hold talks with the Greenland government, marking the beginning of her three-day Arctic island. Her trip was less than a week after US Vice President JD Vance visited, with authorities in Denmark and Greenland receiving cold receptions.

Frederickson firmly declared: “The United States must not take over Greenland.

The Danish leader stressed her commitment to Greenland, describing the situation as a challenging link between Copenhagen and Nuuk. She stressed the importance of mutual respect and cooperation, especially as international interest in the Arctic intensifies.

Greenland’s incoming Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen, who recently won the parliamentary election and will lead the coalition government, welcomed Frederiksen’s visit. He reiterated that despite the ongoing discussion of Greenland’s future, Denmark remains Greenland’s closest companion.

Frederiksen also vowed to advocate for equal rights between Greenland and Danes in the Danish sphere, emphasizing the need for diplomatic dialogue in matters of diplomatic and security policy.

“Our priority is to discuss geopolitical challenges and how we navigate them together. That’s what really matters right now,” she said.
