Greenland’s party leaders have rejected President Trump’s repeated calls for the US to take control of the island, saying that Greenland’s future must be decided by its people. «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 on Friday night, per the AP.
