UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday said he stood with Denmark’s premier after President Donald Trump called for Greenland to become part of the United States.

“Well, I stand with her, and she’s right about the future of Greenland,” Starmer told reporters.

“Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark are to decide the future of Greenland — and only Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark,” he said.

Starmer’s comments came after Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on Sunday told the US to stop “threatening its historical ally” following Trump’s statements that he “absolutely” needed Greenland, which is Danish autonomous territory.
