Danish leader says kingdom can’t negotiate sovereignty after Trump’s Greenland about-turn

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Denmark’s prime minister insisted that her country can’t negotiate on its sovereignty on Thursday after U.S. President Donald Trump said he agreed a “framework of a future deal” on Arctic security with the head of NATO, and said she has been “informed that this has not been the case.”

Trump on Wednesday abruptly scrapped the tariffs he had threatened to impose on eight European nations to press for U.S. control over Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark.
