0:19Now PlayingGreenland’s Prime Minister Mute B. Egede ratcheted up his message to President Donald Trump, stressing the island is “not for sale and cannot simply be taken” after another US push to gain control of the Arctic territory.
“We don’t want to be Americans, nor Danes; We are Kalaalit. The Americans and their leader must understand that,” Egede said in a Facebook post on Wednesday. “Our future will be decided by us in Greenland.”
The comments come after Trump in an address to Congress on Tuesday repeated his plans to take over the island, a self-ruling territory under the Kingdom of Denmark with 57,000 inhabitants. The US president promised to make the population rich and take Greenland to “heights like you have never thought possible before.” He also sent a strong message to both Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, and to Copenhagen that he’s determined to get his way, saying “one way or the other we’re gonna get it.”
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen reiterated her stance that Greenland’s future is for Greenlanders to decide, but added that she hopes the commonwealth will stay together, in an interview with local broadcaster TV2 on Wednesday. Egede has said on several occasion that Greenland is open for strengthening business ties with other nations, including the US.
