“You can’t annex another country,” Frederiksen said to the US government. She will do everything in her power to “take care of this wonderful country and (it) to support it in a really difficult situation”.
Nielsen hoped for “plans for our future cooperation” from his first official government visit to Copenhagen. Meeting with Denmark’s King Frederik and parliamentary members are also planned.
Greenland belongs to the former colonial power of Denmark, but is largely autonomous. Trump has already expressed the will to take over the island area during his first term and already threatened in the 2024 presidential election campaign that it is necessary to bring the raw material-rich Greenland under violence if necessary. The Republican leads the reasons for national and “international security”.
Greenland and Denmark decide an annexation. Around 57,000 people live on the largest island in the world. Valuable raw materials are stored in the soil that have so far hardly been used. Greenland has been autonomous in many areas since 1979, but Denmark continues to decide on foreign and defense policy.
