Open Letter to the President of the United States and His Administration

As Mayor of Kommune Kujalleq – the region of Greenland where the majority of the country’s rare earth elements and strategic minerals are located – I feel a clear responsibility to speak plainly and without reservation.

Greenland’s subsoil is not for sale through political pressure, dismissive rhetoric, or a lack of respect. Period.

The interest shown by you and your administration in Greenland’s resources carries obligations – not only legal, but moral and political. When Greenland, our institutions, our allies, and our people are spoken of with disregard, trust is eroded. And without trust, there is no access. Not a single gram.

As mayor, I will never accept that the citizens of my municipality should feel unsafe or uncertain about what is taking place in their own backyard – politically, economically, or in terms of security. Our land and our communities are not pieces on a great-power chessboard.

Greenland has some of the strongest and most responsible mineral resource legislation in the Nordic region. These laws exist to protect people, nature, and future generations. They will be enforced in full – regardless of who seeks to operate in Greenland, and regardless of the size or power of the nation involved. They are not subject to negotiation.

The Greenlandic people hold authority over their land and their resources. And if there is one thing your administration currently lacks in this matter, it is respect: respect for our democracy, respect for our legislation, respect for our allies, and respect for our people.

Jobs and promises of increased revenue can never be used as currency to bypass the law or the will of the people. If mining activities are not carried out in full compliance with Greenlandic law and with genuine respect for the population, there will be no mining. It is that simple.

Not a single gram of Greenland’s minerals will be extracted without order, respect, and responsibility.

Sincerely,

Malene Vahl Rasmussen
Mayor – Kommune Kujalleq – Greenland

Mighty Mayor

Greenland controversy

Wow. The mayor of Greenland has spoken. I pray that trump will be diplomatic with Greenland And the people of Europe

Sadly the Mayor has no say. It’s beyond her pay grade. A deal is already done.

Unfortunately the mayor is just a lone voice in the scheme of things. If Trump is hell bent on taking over Greenland, there is nothing she can do.

Agbado will come here and call trump a land grabber now.

Over to you President Trump

Trump has been disgraced..

He ran after he discovered that ..EU where now pivoting towards India, China and Russia..

Trump d dumbo
Dude lacks respect.

When emotion is poured into a mail
It loses meaning
Greenland is just a piece of ice block

See Russia playing games
Trying to dismantle NATO
then the real war will start
USA should tread with caution

That guy called Trump is just a trouble maker

Isn't this same thing they do to Africa on a regular?? Now Greenlanders dey cry. Make them go call Erik the red to save them.

So EU allowed US to fool them esp Germany to stop buying cheap energy..in favor of us expensive LNG..shame on them.

Exactly my thoughts about this matter

Oga US will be hit hard....rest...you support US stealing another countries resources..

Please who knows where Greenland embassy is in Nigeria Time to relocate there. The country is becoming very popular now...not a single gram of it is to be traded

When you lack anything valuable to say, you resort to writing nonsense. SMH

This mayor na better MILF oo

If possible he would have called the Mayor a Narco-terrorist like he called Maduro.

The Europeans have quickly forgotten history and are now being proud arrogant and ungrateful,trump have seen the dangerous intent of the madman Putin n he is trying to put the US in a strategic bulwark position against the Russians for interest of both the US n Europe but instead of the Europeans to see reason n tactically manoeuvre the US in they are forming nonsense, if not the US Hitler would have overran all of them especially the weakling call France,today if not for trump n the US the same Europe would have been shivering under the sneezes of the madman Putin,by the Time Trump decides to pull back the US military aid they would painfully realize the fire they are playing with.

The USA don't bark they bite..
She is reading poem given to her by her paymasters
When the music is fully at play we know who dances best.
Not a gram will be taken forcefully but would be taken under negotiations ... Lol

Trump is the real grab it and run with it

Some dumbo will continue to follow The bully president like sheep even though they will never take the same thing that the useless president is dishing out. Imagine some people seccede and get their own country from Nigeria and later Nigeria decides to acquire their land, how happy will they be. Ordinary political issues, they cry to UN, Europe and US. That is why good things they desire in politics will continue to elude them for many generations to come as God cannot be mocked

Lmaoooo! Who is she anyways?

Funny how Denmark is happy to preside over some of their affairs yet they waffle about sovereignty

Hmmmmmm 🤔
I'd the world or life fair in this manner? That you have no say in a decision that greatly affects you and your family or loved ones? 🤔

What fight? Grow sense now. Are you supporting a bully? Are you a bully yourself?

Powerful statement.

I admire her firm stance in spite of the personality involved.
