French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday reaffirmed his country’s support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Denmark and Greenland.
Referring to his visit to Greenland’s capital, Nuuk, last June, Macron stated that Greenland “belongs to its people,” while Denmark “is its guarantor.”
“I join my voice with that of Europeans to express our full solidarity,” he said on the U.S. social media company X.
France, Macron added, remains committed to supporting international law and assisting its European partners in safeguarding territorial integrity.
Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that Jeff Landry, Governor of Louisiana, will serve as the U.S. Special Envoy to Greenland.
Trump wrote on his platform Truth Social that Landry recognizes “how essential Greenland is” for U.S. national security and will strongly advance the country’s interests to ensure the security of allies and the world at large.
