Greenland's freshly elected prime minister begins his first official visit to Denmark on Sunday as US President Donald Trump eyes the Danish autonomous territory. Jens-Frederik Nielsen leads Greenland's new coalition government, after his centre-right Democrats party won a legislative election in March. It will be his first visit to Denmark since taking office.
It also follows a visit to the Arctic territory by Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in early April, when she told the United States "you cannot annex another country". "First and foremost, I will resume discussions with the Prime Minister about the geopolitical situation and cooperation," Nielsen said in a statement this week, referring to Frederiksen.
"It is important that we make plans for our future cooperation in these times," he added.
Tensions between the United States and Denmark have soared after Trump repeatedly said he wanted to take control of the resource-rich Arctic island. The US president has insisted Washington needs control of Greenland for security reasons, refusing to rule out the use of force to secure it.

IMHO, They need to notify the US formally that any further threats are to be considered hostile in nature and swift actions from Europe as a whole will be forthcoming. Then lay out the details of escalating actions. Demand the administration refrain from further threats.
I know it sounds simple but the Felon needs somebody to wake him up to reality.
Or, let him know, he's no threat and considered to be just an annoyance.
