Summary
Greenland’s prime minister, Múte B Egede, condemned the planned visit by Usha Vance, Mike Waltz, and US Energy Secretary Chris Wright, calling it “foreign interference” and urging international support against American pressure.
The visit, seen as a charm offensive amid ongoing coalition talks, sparked local outrage, with Jens-Frederik Nielsen, leader of Greenland’s Democrats, criticizing the US for disrespecting Greenland’s sovereignty.
Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen emphasized cooperation with the US based on respect for sovereignty.
Extra Danish police have been deployed to Greenland ahead of the visit.
The United States recently violated article 6 then, given that they don’t seem to respect regulations and customs affecting the administration of Greenland.
I hope that this can be a point to make. Also talks are to require USA to be part of NATO in order to keep their presence there. Greenland is a very powerful hand for NATO to play against USA because it is basically one of two backdoors of USA, and the shortest distance for the Russians to access it. Alaska is the other one.
