Trump Greenland Annexation Fantasy: PM Nielsen Slams 'Annexation Dreams'

Greenland isn't for sale—and it's definitely not for annexation. Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen just issued his bluntest rebuke yet to President Trump's persistent Arctic ambitions.

Trump Greenland Annexation Fantasy Faces Cold Reality

After the U.S. administration renewed talks of taking over the territory, Nielsen didn't hold back. "That's enough now. No more pressure. No more insinuations. No more fantasies of annexation," the Prime Minister posted, signaling that Greenland's patience with Washington has officially run out.

The latest friction follows remarks made over the weekend of January 4, 2026, where Trump reportedly discussed the strategic necessity of the territory. While the White House views this as a matter of national security and resource acquisition, the local government sees it as a direct threat to their sovereignty.
