Vance: Denmark is not doing its job

Denmark is not doing its job when it comes to controlling Greenland, and the country is not a good ally. This is what USA's Vice President JD Vance says.

In an interview with the conservative TV channel Fox News, he gets a question about Greenland and accuses Denmark of not protecting the island from foreign powers.

It's sea routes that the Chinese and Russians are using, and to be honest, Denmark is not doing its job in controlling Greenland, he responds and continues according to Danish Ritzau:

So you have to ask yourself how we're going to solve this problem and our national security, and if it means we have to increase our territorial interests in Greenland, then that's according to President Trump's wish.

The outburst is the latest in the dispute between the US and Denmark over Greenland since President Donald Trump announced that he wants to take control of the island.

He doesn't care what the Europeans are babbling about. He puts the American people's interests first, says Vance to Fox News about Trump.
