Summary

Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen, during his first visit to Denmark since taking office in March, rejected Donald Trump’s push to annex Greenland, stating the island “will never be a piece of property that can be bought.”

Standing alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, he added, “We are in a foreign policy situation which means we have to move closer together.”

Frederiksen said Denmark was ready to invest more in Greenland as part of a “modernisation” of the two countries relationship.

    I’m not sure what you think I’ll see in the mirror: I have a consistent philosophy that does not align with my government.

    Just because Denmark has claimed Greenland for a long time does not make it right.

      Convenient of you to not address self-determination in your answer. And, no, your position is not consistent or there wouldn’t be “unfortunate necessities”. A weasel clause if there ever was one.
