Thousands of protesters gathered across Denmark on Saturday in solidarity with Greenland amid US President Donald Trumps threat to annex the Arctic island, demanding that the US respect Greenlanders right to self-determination.
Trump says Greenland is vital to US security because of its strategic location and large supply of minerals and has not ruled out the use of force to take it. European nations this week sent military personnel to the island at Denmarks request.
Chanting Greenland is not for sale and holding banners with slogans such as Hands off Greenland alongside Greenlands red and white Erfalasorput flag, demonstrators assembled in Copenhagens City Hall Square before marching towards the US embassy.
