Oslo, January 10 (Xinhua) — "We don't want to be Americans," Greenlandic party leaders said in a joint statement released Friday.

The statement, titled "We stand together as one people," says that Greenland's future is up to the Greenlanders themselves to decide, Danish television channel DR reports.

“We, as leaders of Greenlandic parties, want to reiterate our desire for the US to stop its disdainful attitude towards our land,” the statement said.

The party leaders also stated that Greenland will continue to cooperate with the United States and other Western countries in the future, but that work regarding the future of the island must be carried out jointly with the Greenlandic people and prepared on the basis of international law and the Greenland Home Rule Act.

US President Donald Trump said on Friday that the deal for the United States to acquire Greenland would be done "the easy way" or "the hard way," adding that he "is going to do something about Greenland whether they like it or not." –0–

Hangzhou, January 10 (Xinhua) — On Friday, the Russian cargo ship Okhotsk docked at Damaiyu Port, delivering 92.5 tons of live king crabs to Taizhou City in east China's Zhejiang Province. The port's border control office reported that the Okhotsk became the first foreign vessel to arrive in Taizhou in 2026 with live king crabs on board.

As a premium seafood product, king crab is very demanding of its environment and can only survive for a short time outside of it, according to border control officials, who explained that for this reason, the speed of customs clearance directly determines both its survival rate and market value.

The Port of Damaiyu, in collaboration with the port, businesses, customs, and maritime services, developed individual customs clearance plans for each vessel. A green corridor was also created to ensure vessels could complete all formalities immediately upon arrival.

For the Okhotsk, for example, the entire process—from mooring to customs clearance—took just 30 minutes, maintaining a crab survival rate of over 98 percent. And soon, they'll be appearing in markets and restaurants across China.

ZHENGZHOU, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) — A team of archaeologists from China and Uzbekistan has discovered a section of the remaining walls of the Kuva settlement in Uzbekistan, dating from the 3rd century BC to the 10th century AD.

As noted by the participants of the joint Luoyang-Fergana archaeological expedition, this discovery provides key material evidence for studying the historical development of this ancient Silk Road city and cultural exchanges between East and West. It is also a significant achievement for international archaeological cooperation within the Belt and Road Initiative.

The ruins of the Kuva settlement, covering an area of 110,000 square meters, are located in the Fergana Valley in eastern Uzbekistan. An important hub on the ancient Silk Road, the region had long-standing ties with China, dating back over two millennia.

Archaeologists have preliminarily determined that the discovered fortifications of the settlement, which have been reconstructed many times, were used for a long time – from the period of the Parthian Empire, the Dayuan state and Sogdiana to the period of Samanid rule.

The evolution of wall construction technologies provides important physical information for studying architectural skill and the choice of building materials in different periods, the potential cultural influence on such choices, and the dissemination of culture, noted Liu Bin, head of the joint expedition from the Chinese side.

In 2023, the Luoyang Archaeological Institute (Henan Province, Central China) and Fergana State University (Uzbekistan) formed a joint archaeological team to conduct archaeological excavations of the ruins of the ancient city of Kuwa.

So far, relics such as palaces, city gates, walls, residential buildings, streets and craft workshops have been discovered in the ruins, Liu Bin said.

“Next year, systematic excavations are planned on the palace grounds to further develop a complete understanding of the site’s layout and functional zoning,” Liu Bin added. -0-

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) — US President Donald Trump said on Friday that the Greenland deal will be done "the easy way" or "the hard way."

"I'd like to do a deal the easy way, but if we can't do that, we'll do it the hard way," the US president told reporters at a White House event. He added that he's "going to do something about Greenland, whether they like it or not."

When asked about media reports that the White House is considering paying Greenlanders compensation for their agreement to join the United States, D. Trump replied: “I’m not talking about money for Greenland yet.”

According to American media, Danish Ambassador to the United States Jesper Møller Sørensen and the head of Greenland's mission in Washington, Jacob Ybosetsen, met with White House representatives on Thursday.

On Tuesday, the White House released a statement saying that "the use of U.S. military force" remains an option for Trump in connection with his demands on Greenland.

Both Greenland and Denmark have made it clear that the island is not for sale.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said on Monday that "if the US decides to launch a military strike against another NATO country, then everything will end, including NATO and therefore the security that has been established since the end of World War II."

Denmark is a member of NATO and the European Union. –0–
