"Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said in a post on Facebook on Sunday that Trump's proposal to send the US medical vessel had been noted. But we have a public healthcare system where treatment is free for citizens. It is a deliberate choice, Nielsen said, reiterating Greenland remained open to dialogue and cooperation. But talk to us instead of just making more or less random outbursts on social media, he added."
"On Saturday, Trump said in a post on his Truth Social account with an AI-generated image of the US Navy vessel the USNS Mercy that it was on its way to Greenland to treat those being medically neglected. We are going to send a great hospital boat to Greenland to take care of the many people who are sick, and not being taken care of there. It's on the way!!! Trump wrote."
US President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social an AI-generated image of the USNS Mercy and claimed a hospital ship was en route to Greenland to treat medically neglected people. Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen declined the proposal, stating that Greenland has a public healthcare system with free treatment for citizens and expressing willingness for dialogue and cooperation. Danish officials said Greenlanders receive required care either locally or in Denmark and that no special healthcare initiative is needed. Bilateral ties between Denmark, Greenland and the United States have been strained by talk of US interest in control of Greenland.
