The American President Donald Trump once again emphasizes his interest in Greenland.
On Friday, reporters at the White House are told that the United States needs to own the country to prevent Russia and China from taking it in the future.

- And we don't want Russia or China as neighbors, says Trump, according to Berlingske.
According to TV2, Donald Trump says at the press conference that the US is going to do something about the issue of Greenland:
- Right now we are going to do something with Greenland, whether they like it or not. Because if we don't do it, Russia or China will take over Greenland. And we don't want Russia or China as neighbors.
- I would like to make an agreement the easy way. But if we don't do it the easy way, we do it the hard way, he says TV2 None
The message from Trump comes ahead of an expected meeting between the foreign ministers from the US, Denmark and Greenland in the coming week.
In a joint statement on Friday evening, the party leaders from the five parties in Inatsisartut have stated in a joint statement that Greenland is governed in accordance with the Self-Government Act and international law, and no other countries must interfere.
