Summary
Greenland condemned planned visits by U.S. Second Lady Usha Vance and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, calling them aggressive and disrespectful.
Outgoing Prime Minister Mute Egede and likely successor Jens-Frederik Nielsen criticized the uninvited visits amid heightened tensions over Donald Trump’s interest in Greenland’s rare earth minerals.

Greenland remains self-governing under Denmark’s control over foreign and defense policy.
