Greenland

The Danish FM clarified that any “ideas that would not respect [the] territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark and the right of self-determination of the Greenlandic people are unacceptable."

"The United States needs Greenland for the purpose of National Security. It is vital for the Golden Dome that we are building. NATO should be leading the way for us to get it," Trump wrote.

Greenland has virtually no antisemitism. There is also a near-total absence of a Jewish community.

Donald Trump’s aggressive foreign policy is reshaping the global order and sending shockwaves through the Middle East, from Iran to Israel.

The delegation will be led by Democratic US Senator Chris Coons and will include Republican US Senator Thom Tillis and Democratic Senators Jeanne Shaheen and Dick Durbin.

"It is solely up to Denmark and Greenland to decide about Greenland's future. Territorial sovereignty and integrity must be respected," Klingbeil said.

An acquisition of Greenland may give the United States more control over the Arctic region and an ability to counter aggression in a strategic region, White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said.

Denmark has historically accommodated the US presence because Copenhagen lacks the capability to defend Greenland and benefits from US security guarantees through NATO.

Barrot said the subject would be raised at his meeting with the foreign ministers of Germany and Poland later in the day.

US officials said discussions are underway in the Oval Office on acquiring Greenland, with the White House saying military force remains an option.

Greenland, a former Danish colony, has the right to declare independence under a 2009 agreement but depends heavily on Danish subsidies.
