‘We don’t want to be Americans’: Greenland’s political parties issue joint statement aimed at Trump

Greenland’s five political parties sent a clear message to President Donald Trump on Friday, issuing a joint statement that rejected his increasingly aggressive attempts to acquire the island for the United States.

“We do not want to be Americans, we do not want to be Danes, we want to be Greenlanders,” the statement said, signed by the leaders of the five political parties, including Greenland’s prime minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen. “The future of Greenland must be decided by the Greenlandic people.”
