Greenland PM Condemns Aggressive US Visit
Tensions between Greenland and the US escalated after a planned visit by US officials, including Second Lady Usha Vance, was deemed “highly aggressive” by Greenland’s Prime Minister Mute B. Egede. Egede specifically criticized National Security Advisor Mike Waltz’s inclusion, viewing it as a power play furthering President Trump’s past annexation attempts. This visit follows Trump’s repeated assertions of acquiring Greenland, fueled by its rich rare earth minerals and strategic Arctic location. The timing of the visit, amidst Greenland’s ongoing political transition, has been criticized as disrespectful by both current and incoming leaders.
