Leaders from Greenland and Denmark are slated to meet Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at White House, as Trump weighs acquiring Greenland for security.

Denmark and Greenland have clapped back at Donald Trump’s latest power grab, emerging from a White House meeting to call him out for lying and rebuke his push to seize the island as “totally unacceptable.

After the meeting, Denmark's foreign minister said they're eager to work with the U.S. while respecting the "red lines of the Kingdom of Denmark."

Danish Foreign Minster Lars Løkke Rasmussen said President Trump's push to "acquire" Greenland remains "totally unacceptable" to both Danes and Greenlanders

The meeting comes as U.S. President Donald Trump repeatedly says he wants to take control of Greenland from NATO ally Denmark.

Several people said they viewed Denmark’s decision to send more troops, and promises of support from other NATO allies, as protection against possible U.S. military action.

Greenland’s leader said that, if given the choice between the United States and Denmark, the Greenlanders would rather stick with the Danes.

Denmark and its NATO allies pushed back Tuesday after Trump's deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller claimed the U.S. has a right to Greenland and did not rule out use of American military force to seize it.

Denmark and Greenland’s envoys to Washington have begun a vigorous effort to urge U.S. lawmakers as well as key Trump administration officials to step back from President Donald Trump’s call for a “takeover” of the strategic Arctic island.

President Trump wants the matter settled before the end of his term, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said.
