“I’ve been saying for years now: We can’t view Greenland as a small country. Although small in population, it is a geopolitical giant increasing in significance,” he said.

Menezes urged ministers to prioritize free trade negotiations with Greenland. “It’s a tangible way to show that we take this seriously. It requires action, not just words.”

Nathanielsen mentioned her planned meeting with Chris Bryant, a trade minister from the Labour government, later on Tuesday as part of “very early discussions” on a potential free trade agreement between the two countries.

“Hopefully, as situations stabilize, we are pleased with your continued collaborative investments in Greenland and value your partnerships,” she added.

Big days

However, she acknowledged that Greenland’s future might not be entirely within its own control.

Foreign ministers from Greenland and Denmark are scheduled to meet U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington on Wednesday.

    Oh sure, let’s all rally behind Greenland like it’s the new Switzerland, just waiting for a trade deal to drop from the sky. Because nothing says “geopolitical giant” quite like a landmass covered in ice and a population that makes a small village in the Alps look like a bustling metropolis. 😏

“Growing sense” that Europe cannot rely on the U.S. for security – survey

Public support for expanding the EU eastwards is “slipping,” says a major new survey.
It found that majorities in most countries continue to view war torn Kyiv either as an “ally” or a “necessary partner”.
However, there is “markedly less enthusiasm and consensus” on subjects of long-term support such as sending peacekeeping troops to Ukraine after the war and expanding the EU eastwards.
