COPENHAGEN - Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on Sunday called for unity within the Kingdom to jointly address the increasingly complex international situation.

Speaking at a joint doorstep with Jens-Frederik Nielsen, prime minister of Greenland's self-government, Frederiksen said, "When strong forces seek to do us harm, the entire Kingdom must stand together."

When asked by reporters whether she would be willing to meet with US President Donald Trump, Frederiksen said, "We are always willing to meet and negotiate with the American president."

On his side, Nielsen noted that recent remarks from the United States regarding Greenland had been "disrespectful." He emphasized that Greenland is willing to cooperate with "all countries that treat us well, respect us, and wish to build partnerships based on mutual respect."

Frederiksen expressed her agreement with Nielsen's remarks, stating, "I totally agree with that."

According to the Danish Royal House, King Frederik X is scheduled to visit Greenland on Monday.

Since taking office earlier this year, Trump has repeatedly expressed a strong desire to seize control of Greenland, stating that he would not rule out the possibility of using "military or economic coercion" to achieve this goal.

In March, US Vice-President JD Vance and an American delegation visited Pituffik Space Base in northwest Greenland, formerly known as Thule Base, where Vance criticized Denmark for not doing enough for security in the Arctic or for the well-being of the Greenlandic people.

Greenland, once a Danish colony, became an integral part of the Kingdom of Denmark in 1953. It was granted home rule in 1979, expanding its autonomy, though Denmark retains control over foreign affairs and defense.
