Speaking alongside Danish officials, Macron called his visit “a great honor” and highlighted France’s solidarity with Denmark and Greenland in confronting mounting strategic and environmental issues in the Arctic region.
“I have come to stand with Denmark and Greenland through all the challenges, but also to express France’s and the EU’s support for this territory’s sovereignty, and the need to meet the challenges of economic development, climate emergency, and education,” Macron stated.
Addressing concerns over attempts to undermine territorial claims, he declared, “Through France’s commitment, and that of Rome, decisions like the annexation attempt are condemned."
