French President Emmanuel Macron posted on social media on the 23rd, reaffirming France's firm support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Denmark and Greenland. Macron said on social media X: “Greenland belongs to its people, and Denmark is its protector. I join the nations of Europe in expressing our complete solidarity.” Earlier, US President Trump announced on social media on the 21st that he has appointed Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry as the US special envoy to Greenland, stressing the importance of Greenland to US national security. Landry, on the other hand, said it would make Greenland a “part of America.” The appointment sparked criticism from the European Union, Norway, Denmark, and Greenland, and was accused of revealing America's coveted desire for this mineral-rich island. Greenland is located in northeastern North America and is the largest island in the world. The island is an autonomous Danish territory with a high degree of autonomy, and the Danish government is in charge of defense and foreign affairs. The US currently has a military base in Greenland. Trump has threatened Greenland many times since taking office this year, and has claimed that the possibility of using force is not ruled out.
