Islam Times – Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen warned that US President Donald Trump remains \u201cvery serious\u201d about annexing Greenland, despite recently toning down his rhetoric about using military force to take over the resource-rich Arctic territory.Trump has repeatedly expressed his desire to acquire the autonomous Danish territory, citing its strategic location and alleged threats from Russia and China \u2013 claims dismissed by Copenhagen, Moscow, and Beijing. Although he initially did not rule out using military force, last month he announced a \u201cframework\u201d deal with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, RT reported.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the Munich Security Conference on Saturday, Frederiksen argued the threat is far from over, describing the \u201cpressure\u201d on Greenland as \u201cunacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, the US president remains very serious,\u201d she said, adding that \u201cthe people of Greenland have never been threatened by anyone before.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Copenhagen is willing to work with Washington to allow an expanded military presence, Frederiksen stressed that \u201cthere are, of course, things that you cannot compromise on\u201d \u2013 such as sovereignty and territorial integrity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe now have a working group. We will try to see if we can find a solution, and \u2026 we will do whatever we can, but, of course, there are red lines that will not be crossed,\u201d she said, following a 45-minute meeting on Friday with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Details of the talks have not been made public.<\/p>\n

Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen echoed the concerns, calling it \u201coutrageous\u201d that Greenlanders were being threatened by a NATO member.<\/p>\n

Frederiksen warned last month that the annexation threats could undermine \u201ceverything\u201d, including the US-led military bloc. French President Emmanuel Macron also criticized Washington\u2019s stance, calling the \u201cGreenland moment\u201d evidence that the US administration is \u201copenly anti-European.\u201d \n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Islam Times – Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen warned that US President Donald Trump remains \u201cvery serious\u201d about…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13812,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5],"tags":[10565,10567,10568,649,5214,10576,10574,2668,10580,10572,57,10578,3421,10571,1111,10570,9278,10564,9617,10569,3439,10575,10581,4729,10153,10566,8855,10582,1743,1967,3422,217,10577,75,652,10579,10573],"class_list":["post-13811","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-greenland","tag-very","tag-about","tag-annexing","tag-arctic","tag-danish","tag-despite","tag-donald","tag-down","tag-force","tag-frederiksen","tag-greenland","tag-his","tag-islam","tag-mette","tag-military","tag-minister","tag-over","tag-pm","tag-president","tag-prime","tag-recently","tag-remains","tag-resource","tag-rhetoric","tag-rich","tag-serious","tag-take","tag-territory","tag-that","tag-the","tag-times","tag-to","tag-toning","tag-trump","tag-us","tag-using","tag-warned"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13811","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13811"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13811\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13812"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13811"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13811"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13811"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
