Greenland seeks closer defence, mining ties with the US, says prime minister
COPENHAGEN, Greenland wants to work closer with the United States in the area of defence and on exploring the Arctic island's mining resources, Greenlandic Prime Minister Mute Egede told a press conference on Monday
Egede said his government was looking for ways to cooperate with the United States and that it was ready to start a dialogue with the incoming administration of Donald Trump.
When asked about expanding the U.S. military capabilities on island, Egede said: "Greenland's independence is Greenland's business, also in relation to the use of its land, so it is also Greenland that will decide what agreement we should come to."
"This is the first time Greenland has been listened to in an intense way. We need to be calm and take advantage of things and stand together" he added
