Social democracy responds to Trump’s wild threat

In addition, Greenland contains significant mineral deposits, such as uranium and rare soils that are essential to modern technology, while Greenland’s location is also crucial to missile monitoring – especially between Russia and the United States.

And in the midst of the current major political triangle drama between the United States, Denmark and Greenland he is now coming again with clear message: ‘We get Greenland, 100 percent,’ he says to the media NBC.

Here he came the night of Sunday Danish time with another wild announcement about Greenland. Namely, the United States is taking over the big island and Trump will not rule out using military power in the process.

It now gets the Social Democracy’s political spokesman, Christian Rabjerg Madsen, to the keys in a written response to BT

« I don’t like the tone that is spoken here to an ally. We want to cooperate with the US in the Arctic, but of course it must be in respect of territorial integrity, Greenland and the national community, » he writes in a response to BT

« As the prime minister has also pointed out, it is important that we are sober and do not make us some illusions that the American interest in Greenland is going away. Therefore, we may well be where what we are experiencing right now will be going on for a long period of time, » replies Christian Rabjerg Madsen.

He emphasizes that he « absolutely » has had real conversations about annexing Greenland without elaborating on who these conversations have been brought with.

The president is asked what message a takeover of Greenland will send to Russia and the rest of the world, but he has « not thought about that ».

Until now, all of Donald Trump’s statements have met resistance from both Danish and Greenlandic authorities, who maintain that Greenland is not for sale and that the island’s future status is up to its own population to decide.
