Summary

Danish politician Anders Vistisen harshly rejected Donald Trump’s proposal to make Greenland part of the U.S., calling it “an unacceptable attack on national sovereignty” and using profane language in the European Parliament.

Trump has claimed Greenland is essential for U.S. national security and hinted at using force or economic pressure.

Greenland’s Prime Minister and Denmark’s Prime Minister reaffirmed Greenland’s autonomy and dismissed the idea.

Trump’s renewed interest in Greenland echoes similar comments from his first term in 2019.
