Denmark refuses transfer Greenland’s sovereignty to US
After a meeting of Denmark’s Foreign Policy Committee in Copenhagen, Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen welcomed US President Donald Trump’s assurances at the World Economic Forum in Davos that military force would not be used, but stressed that the proposal itself remains unacceptable.
Rasmussen noted that Trump’s comments indicated the US president’s ongoing interest in acquiring Greenland, despite his claim that Washington alone can defend and develop the Arctic territory. Trump told reporters, “People thought I would use force, but I don't have to use force. I don't want to use force. I won't use force.”
