Starmer: Greenland's Future is Not for Others to Decide

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated on Monday that the future of Greenland should be decided solely by Greenland and Denmark, responding to previous statements by Donald Trump regarding the potential purchase of the territory. Starmer expressed his agreement with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, who had already asked Trump to stop threatening Greenland. This statement underscores the British position that Greenland's sovereignty and self-determination must be respected, without external interference.
