The Danish government has responded to a post by the spouse of an aide to the Trump administration, calling for the US to respect its territorial integrity over Greenland. The reaction follows the recent US strikes on Venezuela as well as renewed concerns over the potential annexation of Greenland by Washington.
The diplomatic firestorm was ignited after Katie Miller, the wife of top Trump administration aide Stephen Miller, tweeted a photo of Greenland draped in the colours of the US flag with the caption 'SOON.' The post was slammed as 'disrespectful' by Greenland's Prime Minister, while the Danish ambassador to the US issued a stern public reminder that 'we expect full respect for the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark.'
