French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot emphasizes the EU's resolve in response to President Trump's claims about acquiring Greenland.
Barrot stated that if the European Commission fails to protect EU members, France should regain the right to protect itself.
He does not foresee actual military action from the U.S. against Greenland, stating, “If you’re asking me whether I think the United States will invade Greenland, the answer is no.”
Trump declared Greenland's acquisition as an "absolute necessity" for U.S. national security, suggesting potential military action.
Greenland’s Prime Minister and Denmark's leaders reiterated their stance, asserting “Greenland is ours. We are not for sale.”
