Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen addressed the European Parliament for the first time ever on Wednesday and announced that the territory is not seeking to join the European Union and is “definitely not seeking to be part” of the United States.
Asked by Euronews if Greenland is more likely to join the EU or be annexed by the US in the future — an interest US President Donald Trump repeatedly expressed — Nielsen said: “Let me say this clear, we are not going to join another country.”
