The European Parliament has formally expressed its “unequivocal support to Greenland and Denmark” in the face of United States President Donald Trump's threats to “take the island, one way or another”.
A statement adopted on Wednesday by the Conference of Presidents, which comprises the leaders of the political groups, said the Parliament “unequivocally condemns the statements made by the Trump administration regarding Greenland, which constitute a blatant challenge to international law, to the principles of the United Nations Charter and to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of a NATO ally”.
