Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen announced that the relationship with the United States, particularly concerning President Donald Trump's ambitions to acquire Greenland, has significantly improved. During a press conference in Nuuk, the capital of the autonomous Danish territory, he acknowledged that while the situation is better than it was a few weeks ago, the crisis over Greenland is still ongoing and without a definitive solution. Rasmussen reassured that there are no immediate threats or trade wars looming with Europe.

Since returning to the White House a year ago, Trump has repeatedly expressed his interest in acquiring Greenland, citing security reasons. However, he toned down these threats last month after reaching an agreement with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte to establish a framework for negotiations, aiming to increase the United States' influence over the Arctic territory. This shift has alleviated some tensions but left the underlying issues unresolved.

The situation regarding Greenland involves not just diplomatic relations but also broader geopolitical considerations, particularly as the Arctic gains increasing strategic importance. The statement from the Danish Minister highlights the delicate balance of interests at play and indicates that any future dealings concerning Greenland will require careful navigation to avoid escalation and ensure regional stability.
