Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has called for a meeting with the nation’s business leaders after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump suggested possible military or economic action, including tariffs, to gain control of Greenland. The Arctic island, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark, was labeled an "absolute necessity" by Trump, citing its strategic importance.
During a 45-minute phone call, Frederiksen emphasized Greenland's right to self-determination and Denmark’s commitment to bolstering Arctic security. She also highlighted the contributions of Danish companies like Novo Nordisk, Maersk, Lego, Carlsberg, Pandora, and Vestas to U.S. economic growth, stressing the mutual benefits of EU-U.S. trade relations.
Minister for Trade and Industry Morten Bodskov reiterated the importance of dialogue with Danish businesses amid rising geopolitical tensions. The trade ministry, however, withheld details about the meeting’s attendees and schedule.
Meanwhile, Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen summoned the foreign policy committee for discussions, signaling Denmark’s proactive stance on the matter.
Greenland’s significance in Arctic security and international trade has drawn heightened global attention, underscoring its critical role in geopolitical strategies.
The situation illustrates Denmark’s resolve to safeguard its sovereignty while fostering international collaboration in a volatile geopolitical climate.
