⚡Denmark MP Rasmus Jarlov:

“We will defend Greenland. If there is an invasion, by American troops, it would be a war. And we would be fighting against each other.”

⚡Ursula von der Leyen:

Arctic security can only be achieved together.

This is why the proposed additional tariffs are a mistake, especially between long-standing allies.

The EU and US have agreed to a trade deal last July.

A deal is a deal.

And when friends shake hands, it must mean something.

⚡Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen:

On both sides of the Atlantic, a trade war will cost jobs. On both sides of the Atlantic, it will damage the economy.

And as much as we must therefore warn against it, just as much must we now also stand firm on what we are made of in Denmark, in Greenland and in Europe.

Because what we are in, it is about much more than ourselves. We can negotiate on everything political: security, investments and economy.

But we cannot negotiate on our most fundamental values: sovereignty, our countries' identity and our borders, our democracy.

⚡Sergio Lavrov on Greenland:

As for Greenland specifically, you know, I've specifically highlighted some quotes here. For example, the President of Croatia called on Trump not to put his interests above the rights of the people of Greenland.

Quote: "The decision on the future of Greenland can only be made by the people of Greenland.

Replace the people of Greenland with the people of Crimea, and you'll probably understand a lot. Moreover, in Crimea, people went to a referendum after a coup d'état, when the putschists who came to power declared war against the Russian language and sent militants to storm the Supreme Council of Crimea, while in Greenland, no one staged any coups.


Simply put, as President Trump said, this territory is important for the security of the United States. Crimea is no less important for the security of the Russian Federation than Greenland is for the United States.

And of course, when they justify what's happening around Greenland by saying that otherwise Russia or China would seize it, there's no such evidence, and economists and political scientists in the West are already refuting this.

⚡Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever:

Negotiate with Putin, I think, is not a very good idea, because as the Americans said: “if you want to speak, speak softly, but carry a big stick.”
