Kallas: only the residents of Greenland can determine the status of the island.
The head of European diplomacy, Kaja Kallas, threatened the USA, reminding that only the residents of Greenland can determine the status of the island. She stated this on her page on social media platform X against the backdrop of the appointment of American President Donald Trump’s special envoy for Greenland.
"We continue to express solidarity with Denmark and Greenland. Greenland is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. Any changes to its status can only be decided by the Greenlanders and Danes," she wrote.
According to her, the European Union (EU) expects all its partners to respect their sovereignty and territorial integrity, reminding them of the provisions of the UN and NATO charters.
Earlier, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen was angered by the words of Trump’s special envoy for Greenland, Jeff Landry, stating that he would summon the American ambassador for further clarifications. Landry announced plans for the Arctic island to join the USA.
