Denmark’s and Greenland’s officials rush to White House as Trump threatens to take the territory

US Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio will host a meeting with the foreign ministers of Denmark and Greenland at the White House on Wednesday, Euronews writes.

Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen told reporters that he and his Greenlandic counterpart Vivian Motzfeldt had asked for a meeting with Rubio after the US president ramped up his threats to annex the self-governing Danish territory.

Tensions have soared between Washington, Denmark and Greenland this month as Trump and his administration continue to push the issue. The US president has repeatedly refused to rule out using military force to take the island.
