Greenland’s party leaders on Friday rejected President Trump’s continued push to take over the self-autonomous Arctic territory.
“We don’t want to be Americans, we don’t want to be Danes, we want to be Greenlanders,” Greenland Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen and four party leaders said in a statement Friday night, according to The Associated Press.
It comes as the Trump administration continues to float using military force to take over Greenland while also considering purchasing land from Denmark. The U.S. already has a military base there but the White House has said President Trump’s goal is to have more control, citing national security.
“Greenland’s future must be decided by the Greenlandic people,” the territory’s party leaders wrote on Friday.
“As Greenlandic party leaders, we would like to emphasize once again our wish that the United States’ contempt for our country ends,” their statement says.
