French President Emmanuel Macron has vowed to support Greenland, saying the Arctic island is not for sale and warning of growing "predatory ambition" toward the region.
French President Emmanuel Macron has pledged support for Greenland, stating the Arctic island is not for sale and should not be taken over amid threats from U.S. President Donald Trump to do just that.
Trump has previously said he wanted the United States to acquire the mineral-rich, strategically located island for national and international security purposes, and has not ruled out the use of force.
Macron made the comment on Sunday during a visit to the island and warned that Greenland is under threat from “predatory ambition” and called its situation a wake-up call for all Europeans.
Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen thanked Macron for France’s strong backing during what he called “challenging times,” referring to Trump’s repeated interest in acquiring the territory.
Greenland is a self-governing part of Denmark with the right to declare independence. Both the Greenlandic and Danish governments have said the island is not for sale and that only Greenlanders can decide their future.
