The confusion around Greenland continues at its best. Donald Trump wants to take over an island that has belonged to Denmark since 1953 and has broad autonomy, as is apparent from the Danish Constitution. However, the president of the United States retaliates with the duties of the leaders of European states who sent their soldiers there. It is France, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Holland and the United Kingdom.
Soldiers from these countries take part in Denmark's Arctic Endurance exercises, which, according to the Danish Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of abroad Affairs of Greenland, are to strengthen NATO presence in the Arctic region. As we wrote on Temat.pl, soldiers in Greenland are not going to send Poland, and the president, the Prime Minister and the head of the MON talk with 1 voice.
The Kremlin said whose Greenland is. Trump will be annoyed.
Donald Tusk, Karol Nawrocki and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamisha will most likely respond with joy. However, comment from Moscow may already irritate Donald Trump.
– We presume that Greenland is part of the territory of the Kingdom of Denmark – he said in an interview with journalists Dmitri Pieskov. The Kremlin spokesperson added that the situation is "controversial enough", while "from an global point of view – extraordinary".
Pieskov stressed that "international law is not a precedence for the US president and the same said it".
Poland distances itself from Greenland
Polish authorities distance themselves from tensions around Greenland. In London, Karol Nawrocki emphasized in an interview with BBC Radio 4 present that Poland does not intend to engage in this dispute militarily. "I think that the debate on Greenland should first of all stay a substance between the Danish Prime Minister and president Donald Trump," he said.
On Thursday, Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that Poland would not send soldiers to Greenland, although he pointed out that Poland would work for European solidarity. akin declarations besides flow from the Ministry of National Defence.
– present it is neither the place nor the time for an accurate analysis of the geopolitical and military consequences of US military intervention in Greenland. It would be a political disaster. A conflict or an effort to take the territory of a state that is simply a associate of NATO, by a second state that is simply a associate of NATO, would be the end of the world. The end of the world, which we know and which for many years guaranteed us safety," said the head of government.
