Greenland’s acting prime minister invited local party leaders to a meeting to draft a joint spurning of Donald Trump’s latest approach to take over the Arctic island.

OSLO - Greenlandic political leaders have firmly rejected US President Donald Trump's latest comments on the potential annexation of Greenland, stressing the need for unity and a strong stance against external pressure.

In a rare show of unity, party leaders say they "cannot accept the repeated statements about the annexation of Greenland."

Greenland’s political parties must set aside disagreements and swiftly form a broad coalition government to show unity in the face of a U.S. campaign to annex the island, the Democrats said on Friday after winning this week’s election.
