OSLO, Jan. 15 (Xinhua) — Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on Thursday described recent negotiations with the United States over Greenland as difficult, saying Washington's ambitions to acquire the island remain unchanged despite Denmark's firm refusal.
Commenting for the first time on the talks held in Washington on Wednesday, M. Frederiksen said in a press release: “This was a challenging meeting, and I would like to thank the two ministers [the foreign ministers of Denmark and Greenland] for clearly and concisely stating the Kingdom’s position and countering American claims. This was important.”
The Danish prime minister confirmed her intention to establish a working group but stated that the impasse remains. "This does not change the fact that fundamental disagreements exist, because American ambitions to take over Greenland remain unchanged," she stated. "This is clearly serious, and therefore we will continue our efforts to prevent such a scenario from materializing," Frederiksen emphasized.
