The Danish government has said Mark Rutte cannot negotiate on behalf of Denmark or Greenland over the future of the Arctic island, as the broad outlines of a deal apparently struck by the Nato secretary general and Donald Trump began to emerge.
The US president said after meeting Rutte on Wednesday the “framework of a future deal” had been found to settle the transatlantic dispute over Greenland following weeks of escalating tensions that risked the biggest breakdown in relations in decades.
Speaking on Thursday, Denmark’s prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, welcomed the progress that had been made but said the situation was still “difficult and serious”.
Pointedly, she added: “It is only Denmark and Greenland themselves that can make decisions” on issues concerning them. “We can negotiate all political aspects – security, investment, the economy – but we cannot negotiate our sovereignty.”
Rutte is a rotten little far-right clown. He couldn’t negotiate a phone plan.
Rutte putting his foot in it, again?
If he got Greenland enough time, until the US invades Iran, then it would be fine. Btw Iran war is coming soo. Trump is already moving military assets for it.
Or until that idiot drops dead. Can’t be too early.
Knowing full well that there’s a non-zero chance that thousands of service members might get a janky-ass nuke dropped on them.
Lips and tongue. Yes, he’s putting them in. Into Trump’s ass. As always. Even Stubb (Finnish president, might misspell his name) stopped being… well… you know.
Hmmm. Wonder if Mark Rutte reminded Trump of the US military bases across the EU that would be imperiled if NATO fell apart.
Trump has a habit of claiming policies that have been long held are now his own, so I can see his coming to a decision to let things lay as they have been, and just bullshit his feebleminded followers that some “deal” has been struck.
Would certainly fit his MO.
