Greenland’s PM signals readiness to boost US ties under Trump, emphasizing trade, mining, and Arctic cooperation amid global tensions and strategic interest from major powers.
Greenland’s Prime Minister Mute B. Egede expressed readiness to enhance cooperation with the US under President-elect Donald Trump, local broadcaster KNR reported.
He highlighted Greenland's openness to trade and mining opportunities, emphasizing its strategic importance. Egede noted ongoing dialogues with Trump's team and called for broader collaboration amidst global tensions.
He stressed Greenland's role in the Arctic and acknowledged interest from global powers like the US, Russia, and China. Egede urged peaceful cooperation, referencing US Vice President-elect JD Vance's assurance against military action during a Fox News interview.
Denmark, seeking to address US security concerns and avoid conflict, has proposed increased US military presence in Greenland, according to Axios. Trump, who assumes office on January 20, has described Greenland as a strategic necessity for the US, raising concerns in Denmark. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced plans to discuss Greenland’s status with Trump, reaffirming confidence in diplomatic resolutions.
Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory since 1979, holds key strategic value due to its Arctic location and US military base.
Greenland wants to ban receiving contributions from foreign or anonymous donors, according to a bill unveiled Monday, amid statements of US President Donald Trump to acquire the autonomous Danish territory.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that President Trump’s proposal to purchase Greenland is a serious strategic move, not a joke. He suggested that negotiations should be handled diplomatically, as reports indicate tensions between Trump and Denmark’s Prime Minister.
A new opinion poll shows 85% of Greenlanders oppose the idea of their island joining the United States, following Donald Trump's repeated calls for the US to take control of the semi-autonomous territory.
Denmark agrees to discuss Arctic security with the U.S., as Trump’s interest in acquiring Greenland sparks renewed debate over the island's future and independence.
Denmark plans to expand the Kangerlussuaq air base in Greenland, transforming it into an "operational military base" to strengthen its presence in the Arctic.
