Don Donald Trump has faced criticism from France and Denmark after proposing the idea of purchasing Greenland. The president-elect's controversial plans have sparked international tensions, with France issuing a stern warning regarding any potential actions towards the autonomous territory.
France's Response and Warning
French foreign minister Jean-Noel Barrot expressed strong opposition to any moves on Greenland, labeling them as an attack on the European Union's sovereign borders. While he doubted the possibility of a US invasion, he emphasized the need for vigilance in a competitive global landscape.
Denmark's Firm Stance
Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen firmly rejected the notion of selling Greenland, asserting the territory's status as non-negotiable. Even the Danish royal family appeared to distance themselves from Trump's proposals by emphasizing Greenland's significance in their new coat of arms.
Trump's Provocative Statements
Trump's rhetoric extended beyond Greenland, with the president-elect also suggesting the annexation of Canada and raising concerns about the Panama Canal. These unexpected threats have raised eyebrows and drawn reactions from various quarters.
In a series of social media posts, Trump hinted at imposing tariffs on Denmark and floated the idea of making Canada the 51st state of the US. His provocative remarks have further fueled tensions and speculation about his foreign policy approach.
