Yesterday’s key developments:
French President Emmanuel Macron announced plans to meet the leaders of Denmark and Greenland in Paris on Wednesday for a “working lunch”, aimed at reaffirming European solidarity and France’s support for Greenlandic sovereignty following US President Donald Trump’s threats to seize the Danish territory earlier this month.
Trump backed down on his threat to seize Greenland after meeting with NATO chief Mark Rutte last week.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Denmark was open to “deeper and stronger” military cooperation with the United States but stressed that Danish sovereignty was a red line.
