"If the United States attacks another NATO country, then everything would be over [Danish: sa hrer alting op, ed.], Frederiksen told broadcaster DR."
"Trump's repeated statements that the US must annex Greenland must be taken seriously. If the American President means this seriously, we are now in a very serious situation."
"i can't account for what the Americans are going to do, only for what we can do on the Danish and European side. And there is full support from Europe that borders must be respected."
Mette Frederiksen warned that any US military annexation of Greenland would destroy about 80 years of transatlantic security links and effectively undermine NATO and post‑World War II security. President Donald Trump repeatedly expressed desire to annex Greenland, and those statements must be taken seriously according to Danish officials. Denmark asserts that borders must be respected and that Europe supports that position. The Danish Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee was summoned to an extraordinary meeting to consider the Kingdom of Denmark's relationship with the United States. Denmark emphasised ongoing diplomatic relations with the US and previous direct contact with President Trump.
