United Front: Denmark and Europe's Arctic Security Concerns
  • Country:
  • France

In a compelling address at a conference in Paris, Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen underscored the urgent need for the United States and Europe to maintain solidarity, particularly in the context of Arctic security.

Frederiksen declared the end of the existing world order, forged over the past eight decades, emphasizing that its return is unlikely. She stressed the critical importance of finding a united path forward, given shared concerns, especially those related to Russian activities.

Anticipation builds as Frederiksen, along with Greenland's top official Jens-Frederik Nielsen, plans to meet French President Emmanuel Macron. Their meeting aims to bolster support amidst President Donald Trump's controversial initiative to assert control over the strategically significant Arctic island, a longstanding Danish territory.
