Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and Greenland's Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen met with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Munich Security Conference on February 14, 2026, to discuss the future of Greenland. The meeting follows strained relations between the U.S. and Europe, fueled by President Trump's past threats to take over the semi-autonomous Danish territory. All parties agreed to continue talks through a high-level working group, emphasizing Greenland's interests. Trump stated that the U.S. is currently negotiating for Greenland, despite a recent poll showing 7 in 10 U.S. adults disapprove of his handling of the Greenland issue. The discussions aim to address the running of Greenland amidst ongoing tensions and Trump's claims of a deal with NATO for greater U.S. influence in the region.
