European allies have rallied firmly behind Greenland’s sovereignty after renewed pressure from Washington. Denmark’s foreign minister stressed that the US president cannot threaten his way into ownership of the semi-autonomous territory. The UK echoed that stance, with Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper insisting Greenland’s future must be decided by Greenlanders and Danes alone.
Cooper highlighted Denmark’s role as a proud NATO ally that has stood shoulder to shoulder with the UK and US at real human cost. She noted the existing 1951 US-Denmark treaty already ensures a strong American security presence, adding that alliances rest on respect, not pressure.
