Denmark pushes back against US Greenland annexation bill

Copenhagen has reaffirmed that the Arctic island is part of Denmark as the US hints at the use of force to acquire the territory

Denmark’s ambassador to Washington, Jesper Moller Sorensen, has said he made it “abundantly clear” to US Congressman Randy Fine that Greenland is part of Denmark, after the lawmaker introduced a bill calling for the annexation of the Arctic Island.

On Monday, the Republican congressman introduced the Greenland Annexation and Statehood Act.
