Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Greenland Rejects Trump's Annexation Push, Chooses Denmark

Caption: Greenland Rejects Trump's Annexation Push, Chooses Denmark. Greenland’s prime minister has made his clearest statement yet against U.S. ambitions over the Arctic island, saying that if forced to choose "here and now," Greenland would stand with Denmark, not the United States. Speaking alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Copenhagen, Jens-Frederik Nielsen rejected President Donald Trump's renewed calls for U.S. ownership of Greenland, stressing the territory does not want to be owned, governed, or absorbed by Washington. Trump argues the U.S. must control Greenland for national security, citing threats from Russia and China, and has not ruled out using force. Denmark has pushed back hard, warning that any military action would undermine NATO itself. Despite hosting a long-standing U.S. military base, Greenland insists its future will be decided by its own people. European allies have backed Denmark, reaffirming that sovereignty and borders must be respected. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
