Danish King Frederik X will visit Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark, next week to meet with the new prime minister and his government, the royal house said Wednesday.
The trip comes weeks after U.S. Vice President JD Vance visited a remote U.S. military base in Greenland and accused Denmark of underinvesting in the strategic Arctic island. President Donald Trump seeks control of mineral-rich Greenland, saying it's crucial for U.S. security. Trump has not ruled out taking the island by military force, even though Denmark is a NATO ally of the United States.
