The outgoing prime minister Green Earth Explosive talk on Thursday by the president Donald Trump that the potential annexation of the massive Arctic The island for the United States would happen.
“The president of the United States has once again issued the idea of annexing us,” Mute Egede wrote in a Facebook publication.
“Don’t keep dealing with disrespect. It’s enough,” Egede wrote.
The prime minister wrote that he plans to call a meeting of the presidents of all the political parties of Greenland “as soon as possible” to address Trump’s comments.
“Because this time we need to adjust our rejection of Trump,” Egede wrote.

The Facebook publication arrived hours after Trump argued once again the idea that the United States took care of Greenland, which is currently a Denmark territory.
A journalist asked Trump: “What is his vision for the possible annexation of Greenland”?
“I think it will happen,” Trump replied during a meeting at the White House with NATO General Secretary Mark Rutte.
Trump said the United States needs the island “for international security.”
Then, the president turned to Rutte and said “We will talk to you” on the issue.
“It is really an appropriate question,” added the president.
Routte quickly said: “When it comes to Greneland, yes or not to join the United States, it would leave that outside, for me, this discussion, because I do not want to lead NATO in that.”
Denmark, like the United States, was a founding member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, an important international alliance created in 1949 after World War II.
Denmark has controlled Greenland, the largest island in the world, since the fourteenth century.
However, Greenland has been autonomous since 1979.
On Tuesday, the Demokraitit Pro-Demokraitititic de Centro Right party won a victory of surprise parliamentary elections in Greenland, obtaining 30% of the votes.
The party supports a gradual independence of Denmark.
On Wednesday, Democraatit leader Jens-Frederik Nielsen criticized Trump’s call in recent weeks for Greenland to become an American territory.
“We don’t want to be Americans. No, we don’t want to be Danish. We want
Being Groenlanders, and we want our own independence in the future, “Nielsen told Sky News.
“And we want to build our own country for ourselves.”
