Katie Miller, the wife of US White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, recently posted a map of Greenland painted in the colors of the US flag on social media and distributed the capital English word SOON meaning “soon,” triggering criticism from Greenland and Denmark. Katie posted the above post on the evening of the 3rd local time. Officials from Greenland and Denmark all expressed dissatisfaction with it on the 4th. Prime Minister Jens Frederick Nielsen of the Greenland Home Rule Government posted on social media on the 4th that the move was “disrespectful.” “Relations between countries and peoples are based on mutual respect and international law, rather than symbolic acts that disregard each other's status and rights,” he said. At the same time, he stressed, “There is no need to panic or worry. Greenland is not for sale, and our future is not determined by social media posts.”
