Several American senators will travel to Denmark next week, where they will meet with representatives of the Foreign Policy Committee.
The senators have themselves contacted the chairman of the committee, Christian Friis Bach (V), he confirms this to TV 2.
It is not clear when during the week the visit will take place, but according to TV 2's information it will take place on Friday.
The visit comes at a time when US President Donald Trump has reiterated his desire for American ownership of Greenland, which is part of the Commonwealth of Nations along with Denmark and the Faroe Islands.
Recently, Trump stated that the United States "needs Greenland for national security reasons."
TV 2 writes that the media outlet has not been able to confirm what the agenda for the meeting is.
Greenlandic politicians Aki-Matilda Høegh-Dam from the Naleraq party and Aaja Chemnitz from Inuit Ataqatigiit plan to attend the meeting, they told TV 2. Both are members of the Foreign Policy Committee.
In addition, Chemnitz wrote in a Facebook post on Sunday evening that the senators will also meet with the Greenland Committee.
She also writes that the senators' visit is the result of a meeting she had with Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski earlier this week.
The upcoming meetings are not the only ones Denmark and Greenland are expected to have with the US over the next few days.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced that he will meet with Denmark and Greenland in the coming week.
On Sunday, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen (S) confirmed at a party leadership debate that there will be a foreign minister meeting between Lars Løkke Rasmussen (M) and Marco Rubio next week.
On Sunday evening, it is still unknown where, when and how the meeting will take place.
Both from Greenlandic and Danish sides, there have been several highly critical reactions to Trump's request.
On Friday, all five parties in Greenland's parliament, Inatsisartut, issued a joint statement, in which it was once again stated that they do not want to be part of the United States.
At Sunday's party leadership debate, the Prime Minister said that "we are at a crossroads, and it is a fateful moment".
- If you turn your back on NATO cooperation by threatening an ally - something you have never experienced before - everything stops. And I mean that, said Mette Frederiksen.
