Denmark has warned the United States to respect its sovereignty after President Donald Trump appointed a special envoy to Greenland, the Danish autonomous territory Trump has threatened to annex. Since returning to the White House in January 2025, Trump has repeatedly said the US needs the resource-rich island for security reasons and has refused to rule out the use of force to secure it. Trump announced early on Monday that he had named the governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry, as US special envoy to Greenland.
