5:35Now PlayingOnly Greenland and Denmark should decide the future of Greenland, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has told the BBC, after President Trump again said "we need Greenland from the standpoint of national security".
The US president and senior members of his administration have repeatedly raised the prospect of the semi-autonomous Danish territory becoming an annexed part of the United States.
Both Greenland's prime minister and Denmark's prime minister strongly rejected the idea over the weekend.
Greenland's Prime Minister Jens Frederik Nielsen responded to Trump's latest comments by saying "that's enough now" and described the notion of US control over the island as a "fantasy".
