The Danish ambassador to the United States has refuted on social media against a post by the U.S. special envoy to Greenland regarding Washington’s role in the island’s security history.
In response to U.S. special envoy to Greenland Jeff Landry, Danish Ambassador Jesper Moller Sorensen wrote on social media platform X on Sunday that Greenland has been part of the Kingdom of Denmark for centuries, and the fact has repeatedly been recognized by the U.S. administrations, the United Nations, and the international community.
Emphasizing that only the people of Greenland should decide their future, Sorensen added, “For 80 years, Denmark, Greenland, and the U.S. have had a successful security partnership in the Arctic. Let’s continue to address security challenges in the Arctic as partners and allies.”
On Sunday afternoon, Landry posted on X that “The U.S. defended Greenland’s sovereignty during WWII when Denmark couldn’t. After the war, Denmark re-occupied it-side stepping and ignoring UN protocol.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
