Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has condemned an upcoming visit by a high-profile U.S. delegation to Greenland, calling it 'unacceptable pressure' on the semi-autonomous Danish territory. The delegation includes U.S. Vice President JD Vance, his wife Usha Vance, White House National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, and Energy Secretary Chris Wright. Vance has further escalated tensions by criticizing Denmark’s handling of Greenland and announcing plans to visit a U.S. military base there. Greenlandic and Danish officials have pushed back, calling the visit an interference in their governance. The controversy highlights ongoing geopolitical tensions over the Arctic region and U.S. influence in Greenland.
