The leading political parties in Greenland issued a joint statement to judge Donald Trump’s “unacceptable behavior”, after the development of his island’s acquisition campaign.
Display of unity saw all the leaders of the Inatsusartut parties – Parliament – release a joint message saying that they “don’t receive the repeated statements about the annealing and controlling Greenland”.
It follows a meeting between Trump’s Secretary and Nato Rutte on Thursday, where the President seems to double his Annexation plan.
The joint statement of Greenland was orchested with outgoing Prime Minister Mute B egede, whose party was defeated in an election on Tuesday.
“Our country will never be one and we are greatellanders are never Americans,” Ehedee’s letter to Facebook. “Don’t treat us without respect. It’s enough.”
Greenland – The largest island of the world, between the Arctic and Atlantic ocean – controlled by Denmark, nearly 3,000km (1,860 miles) away, for about 300 years.
Greenland is in charge of its own domestic activities, but foreign decisions and defense policy are made of Copenhagen.
The US has long enough for an interest in the security of the island. It has a military base there since World War two, and Trump is also in rare mineral mines to be mine.
Greenland is already in defense about Trump’s Annexing talk, but his rutte comments on the White House sent extra shockwaves when he meant that the help of NATO can be taken for the island.
“You know, Marcos, we need that for international security … we have a lot of our favorite players cruiser at the beach, and we have to be careful,” Trump said.
“We will tell you,” he added.
When asked about the hope of annexation, Trump said: “I think that’s going to happen.”
Rutte is criticized in Greenland and Denmark to not reprimand Trump. However, he said “leave that (Issight) outside … I don’t want to drag NATO to that”.
He then took admiration – something used by many world leaders in dealing with Donald Trump – saying he “correct” that the Arctic security should be maintained.
the Joint Statement From Greenland politicians emphasized that they were united with their push against Trump’s plan.
“Greenland continues to work for Greenland,” as the statement.
“All of us stand behind this effort and strongly turns ourselves from trying to make conflict.”
Their talking decision comes three days after the election where the central right opposition – the democratic party – won the victory.
Its leader, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, who is likely to be new Prime Minister in Greenland, currently negotiated with other parties to form a coalition.
