1:02Now PlayingDanish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says she is standing behind the government head of Greenland, the semi-autonomous Danish territory that U.S. President Donald Trump wanted to buy.
Speaking to reporters, Frederiksen said “a discussion about a potential sale of Greenland has been put forward. It has been rejected by Greenland Premier Kim Kielsen, and I fully stand behind that rejection.”
Frederiksen, who took office two months ago as Denmark’s second female head of state and the leader of the left-leaning Social Democratic Party, said relations between Copenhagen and Washington “are not in any crisis in my opinion” after Trump canceled his plans to visit Denmark following her rejection of the sale.
“I don’t believe that the cancellation should have any influence on other matters,” she said.
