China has openly supported Denmark’s sovereignty over Greenland following renewed interest from US President Donald Trump in acquiring the autonomous Danish territory.
During a meeting in Beijing on Monday, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi told his Danish counterpart Lars Lokke Rasmussen that China “fully respects Denmark’s sovereignty and territorial integrity on the issue of Greenland,” according to the state-run Global Times.
Wang also expressed hope that Denmark would continue supporting China’s own position on sovereignty and territorial issues. He added that China is ready to deepen cooperation with Denmark, focusing on openness and green development.
This diplomatic exchange comes as the two countries celebrate 75 years of diplomatic relations. Wang called for closer political trust and stronger ties between China and Denmark.
Trump has long expressed his desire to acquire Greenland, citing national and international security concerns. In a speech to Congress earlier this year, he said, “We need Greenland for national security and even international security… We’re working with everybody involved to try and get it… we’re going to get it one way or the other.”
China’s statement is the latest development in this ongoing international discussion over Greenland’s future.
