The Danish foreign minister criticized the aggressive tone of the Trump administration regarding Denmark and Greenland, emphasizing the importance of mutual respect among allies. After U.S. Vice President JD Vance's visit to Greenland, where he accused Denmark of underinvesting in security, Trump reiterated that military force remains an option for acquiring Greenland, despite suggesting a preference for non-military approaches. Rasmussen highlighted Denmark's efforts in Arctic security and expressed openness to cooperation, while also addressing the implications of the U.S. stance for international relations and security.
"We do not appreciate the tone in which it is being delivered. This is not how you speak to your close allies. And I still consider Denmark and the United States to be close allies."
"I think there's a good possibility that we could do it without military force. This is world peace, this is international security, but I don't take anything off the table."
