Protecting Greenland's right to decide its own future and maintain the rule-based world order (debate)
Madam President, honourable Members, Greenland has the right to decide its own future freely and without foreign US interference. Denmark, with Europe, firmly rejects the return of neo-imperialist tactics that seek to pressure or exploit autonomous regions for strategic gain. This isn't just about Greenland: it is about international order. Decisions about Greenland's future belong to Nuuk, not to foreign capitals. Europe must stand together in this, and we need to develop a European strategy that takes the Greenlanders' ownership of their island seriously.
