Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said on the 28th that there is no so-called Greenland agreement reached between NATO and U.S. President Trump, and that territorial sovereignty is an inviolable 'red line' in resolving disputes.
During her visit to France, she told France 2 TV that there is no such agreement. The relevant parties have agreed to set up a working group to seek solutions, and NATO's statement regarding strengthening its presence in Greenland is 'positive,' but NATO has no authority to negotiate with Trump over Greenland.
U.S. President Trump recently stated that he and NATO Secretary General Rutte have set a framework for a future agreement concerning Greenland.
Frederiksen stated that Greenland is part of NATO, and matters such as U.S. defense and collective defense can all be conducted within the NATO framework.
She emphasized that national sovereignty and the right to national self-determination are 'red lines that must be respected,' and are 'impossible to compromise.'

She said that Europe has demonstrated unity on the Greenland issue, which is 'not only useful but necessary' in the current context.
