The EU does not see Greenland in danger because the US is an allied country

The European Union has ensured that it sees no 'possible comparison' between Venezuela and Greenland's sovereigntybecause Washington is an allied country and the Arctic island of Denmark is protected by NATO.

"I recall that Greenland is an ally of the US and is also supported by the NATO alliance, which is a very important difference. We therefore fully support Greenland and see no comparison with what has happened in Venezuela, "said European Commission spokeswoman Paula Pinho , whose EU foreign spokesman,Anitta Hipper , also spoke on the matter and called for the defence of "the principles of national sovereignty, territorial integrity and inviolability of borders", as well as the United Nations Charter.



"These are universal principles that we will defend, especially if the territorial integrity of a Member State of the European Union is called into question," he said in solidarity with Denmark and Greenland.

Asked if the US will do anything to prevent the EU from entering the island,Donald Trumphas merely replied that it is "a matter of principles," so that his colleagues in Brussels expect, in reference to the US, "respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity and compliance with international commitments."



On the other hand, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has warned that if an attack occurs, "everything will be over."

"If one NATO country attacks another NATO country, it's all over. Also our NATO, and consequently the security it has provided since the end of World War II, "he said.
