Macron visits Greenland to show European support for strategic Arctic island

Mr Macron reiterated his criticism of Mr Trump's intention to take control of the territory. 'I don't think that's something to be done between allies,' he said as he was greeted at the Nuuk airport by Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen.

He was making a stop on his way to a summit of the Group of Seven leading industrialised nations in Canada that will also be attended by Mr Trump. Mr Macron, who is visiting Greenland for the first time, said: 'It means a lot to me … to convey a message of friendship and solidarity from France and the European Union to help this territory face the different challenges: economic development, education, as well as the consequences of climate change.' In a speech last week at the UN Ocean Conference, Mr Macron also mentioned Greenland and the deep seas, saying they are not 'up for grabs' in remarks that appeared directed largely at Mr Trump. Mr Macron, in recent months, has sought to reinvigorate France's role as the diplomatic and economic heavyweight of the 27-nation European Union. The French president has positioned himself as a leader in Europe amid Mr Trump's threats to pull support from Ukraine as it fights against Russia's invasion. Mr Macron hosted a summit in Paris with other European heads of state to discuss Kyiv, as well as security issues on the continent.

The leaders will also have exchanges on efforts to curb global warming, according to Mr Macron's office. Later Sunday, Mr Macron, Mr Frederiksen and Mr Nielsen held a meeting on a Danish helicopter carrier, showing France's concerns over security issues in the region. Last week, US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth appeared to acknowledge that the Pentagon has developed plans to take over Greenland and Panama by force if necessary, but refused to answer repeated questions during a hotly combative congressional hearing on Thursday about his use of Signal chats to discuss military operations. Mr Hegseth's comments were the latest controversial remarks made by a member of the Trump administration about the Arctic island. The president himself has said he won't rule out military force to take over Greenland, which he considers vital to American security in the high north. The Wall Street Journal last month reported that several high-ranking officials under the US director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, had directed intelligence agency heads to learn more about Greenland's independence movement and sentiment about US resource extraction there. Mr Nielsen said that US statements about the island have been disrespectful and that Greenland 'will never, ever be a piece of property that can be bought by just anyone'.
