Trump, Macron and Greenland
Digest more
French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday said that Greenland is “not to be sold” nor “to be taken” in a key visit to the strategic arctic territory coveted by US President Donald Trump, saying he was conveying a message of French and European solidarity. Macron criticized Trump’s intention to take control of the territory.
The French leader was visiting Greenland — a self-governing part of Denmark with the right to declare independence that U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to take over — ahead of a trip to Canada for the G7 leaders' summit.
