Greenland does not want to receive an American hospital ship that US President Donald Trump wants to send to the island.
This is what Chairman of the Greenlandic Government Jens-Frederik Nielsen writes on Facebook.
- It will be a no thanks from here. President Trump's idea of sending an American hospital ship here to Greenland has been noted. But we have a public health system where treatment is free for citizens. It is a conscious choice. And a fundamental part of our society.
- It is not like that in the USA, where it costs money to go to the doctor. We are always open to dialogue and cooperation. Also with the USA. But now talk to us instead of just making more or less random outbursts on social media, writes Jens-Frederik Nielsen.
He adds that "dialogue and cooperation require respect for decisions about our country being made here at home".
