US visit puts 'unacceptable pressure' on Greenland—Denmark

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen denounced Tuesday a US delegation visit that now includes Vice President JD Vance to Greenland, the Danish island coveted by President Donald Trump, as putting 'unacceptable pressure' on both the territory and her country.

Vance, who has become Trump's attack dog on foreign policy matters, will travel with his wife Usha to Pituffik Space Base on Friday 'to receive a briefing on Arctic security issues and meet with US servicemembers', his office said in a statement.
