Greenland's new PM rejects US acquisition plans
ai generated text
Jens-Frederik Nielsen, Greenland's prime minister, has repeatedly stated that Greenland does not belong to any nation, emphasizing the island's right to self-determination. Nielsen's remarks were made in a Facebook post, in which he said: "We do not belong to anyone else. We decide our own future."
We do not appreciate the tone in which it is being delivered. This is not how you speak to your close allies.
I look forward to continuing the close and trusting cooperation between Greenland and Denmark.
I have the deepest respect for how the Greenlandic people and Greenlandic politicians are handling the great pressure on Greenland.
It is a situation that calls for unity across political parties and across the countries in the Realm.
At a time when we as a people are under pressure, we must stand together.
President Trump says that the United States is getting Greenland. Let me be clear: The United States won't get that. We do not belong to anyone else. We determine our own future.
This is world peace, this is international security.
I think there's a good possibility that we could do it without military force.
Our message to Denmark is very simple: you have not done a good job by the people of Greenland. You have underinvested in the people of Greenland and you have underinvested in the security architecture of this incredible, beautiful landmass.
I think that they ultimately will partner with the United States.
We can make them much more secure. We could do a lot more protection. And I think they'd fare a lot better economically as well.
