France and allies discuss response to possible US invasion of Greenland

AI Summary

medium article 2 min

France is consulting with allies, including Germany and Poland, regarding a potential response to a possible US invasion of Greenland. This follows escalating tensions fueled by former President Trump's expressed interest in acquiring the Arctic territory and suggestions from his aides about using military force. Denmark, which governs Greenland, has warned that a US invasion would jeopardize NATO and post-World War II security. While European leaders have affirmed Greenland's right to self-determination, the Trump administration has stated that "a range of options" are being considered. The Danish and Greenlandic foreign ministers are seeking urgent talks with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to de-escalate the situation, after Rubio reportedly ruled out an invasion.
