Danish Defense Minister Slams Trump’s Greenland Comments, Calls It ‘Escalating Tensions’

Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen has condemned US President Donald Trump’s renewed push to annex Greenland, calling it “escalating tensions” and disrespectful.

Danish Defense Minister Poulsen accused Trump of making aggressive remarks and undermining Greenland’s autonomy.

The visit of a US delegation led by Usha Vance has also faced backlash.

Danish Defense Minister and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called the pressure from the US “unacceptable.” A recent poll showed 85% of Greenlanders oppose US incorporation.
