Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen criticized the US for its perceived pressure on Greenland as a US delegation prepares to visit the Arctic island. Frederiksen deemed the situation "unacceptable" and expressed resistance to the visit, particularly in light of Greenland's recent elections. Greenland's Prime Minister Múte Egede labeled the US visit as "highly aggressive" and indicated that no official meetings would occur due to the political situation. Both leaders highlighted the disregard for local sentiments associated with the visit, framing it as a demonstration of power rather than genuine diplomacy.
"I have to say that it is unacceptable pressure being placed on Greenland and Denmark in this situation. And it is pressure that we will resist," Frederiksen told Danish media.
"The only purpose of a trip by Waltz is a demonstration of power to us, and the signal is not to be misunderstood," Egede said.
