Summary
Greenland’s five political parties issued a joint statement rejecting Donald Trump’s repeated calls to take control of the island.
Outgoing Prime Minister Mute Egede declared, “We Greenlanders will never be Americans.” Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen also dismissed Trump’s remarks, citing international law.
Trump’s comments come amid increasing geopolitical interest in Greenland due to its strategic location and valuable natural resources.
Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory, remains financially dependent on Denmark, which controls its foreign affairs and defense.
On the global stage, America doesn’t have a centralist party. It has a right party and an extreme right party.
For comparison, the UK is relatively right leaning. The democrats are comparable to the UK conservative party. They are the most right leaning ‘main’ party.
True.
