Trump: We are negotiating on Greenland right now.

USA is currently negotiating over Greenland.

That’s what U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters outside the White House, according to Reuters.

“We believe Greenland will want us, but we get along very well with Europe. We’ll see how it all ends. We’re negotiating over Greenland,” he said.

The president was also asked if he had a message for the NATO countries gathered in Munich.

“We have an excellent relationship with NATO. We are a very strong part of NATO. The leaders of the countries we’re discussing are all my friends,” he said, according to dpa.

The statement came on Friday evening, almost simultaneously with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen emerging from a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Munich Security Conference.

Mette Frederiksen and Marco Rubio participated in discussions alongside numerous other heads of state and government aimed at strengthening transatlantic cooperation.

According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the meeting was constructive.

“The work will continue as agreed in the high-level group,” it wrote in a post on X.

The prime minister referred to the working group established by Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen (M) during a meeting in Washington in January with Marco Rubio and U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance.

**Security in Greenland and the Arctic**

The working group is tasked with finding solutions to address U.S. concerns about security in Greenland and the Arctic.

The Munich Security Conference is an annual event.

Last year, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance made it clear that the American side was dissatisfied with European countries’ efforts regarding the Arctic.

Since then, tensions over Greenland have escalated, and Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed a desire for the U.S. to take ownership of the territory.

A wish that has been repeatedly denied by both Danish and Greenlandic authorities.

The Greenlandic Premier, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, also attended the meeting with Marco Rubio.

Following the meeting, Jens-Frederik Nielsen posted on Facebook that Greenland’s interests had once again been “clearly” highlighted.

“It was emphasized that the ongoing discussions are the right path forward,” he wrote.
