Danish FM: ‘Talks Did Little To Dissuade White House From Greenland Plan
Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen announced on 14 January that talks with US officials at the White House did “little” to budge Washington's position on annexing Greenland.
Rasmussen said the US remained fixed on acquiring the Arctic territory, despite Danish objections and warnings that such a move would violate sovereignty and Greenlanders’ right to self-determination.
“We did not manage to change the American position,” he told reporters after the meeting in Washington.
Present at the talks were Rasmussen, Greenland’s Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt, US Vice President JD Vance, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
