During her visit to Greenland, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen emphasized strong Arctic defense collaboration with the U.S., firmly rejecting any attempts to annex the territory. This comes amid ongoing tensions regarding U.S. President Trump's assertions about Greenland's status. Frederiksen invited the U.S. to work with Denmark and Greenland for security in the Arctic, highlighting the significance of international cooperation for global stability. She also underscored Denmark's commitment to enhancing its military capabilities in the region while addressing complaints about Arctic security.
I would like to take this opportunity to send a message directly to the United States of America, Frederiksen said on board a military vessel... You cannot annex another country, not even with an argument about security.
According to The Washington Post newspaper, the White House is currently estimating the cost for the US federal government to control Greenland, and the potential revenues it could derive from exploiting its largely untapped natural resources.
On Thursday, she outlined Denmark's security commitments, including new Arctic ships, long-range drones and satellite capacity, and said Denmark would announce more investments.
