Reference News website reported on June 11 that according to a report by the Associated Press on June 11, as US President Donald Trump is attempting to control Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark, the Danish Parliament approved a bill on June 11 allowing the United States to establish military bases on Danish territory.
Critics said that this vote would cede Danish sovereignty to the United States. This bill expands a military agreement reached in 2023 between Denmark and the Biden administration of the United States, which allows the US military to widely use Danish airbases.
Although the United States and Denmark are both NATO allies, Trump coveted Greenland, a strategically significant Arctic island rich in mineral resources.
It was reported that the bill has been submitted for signature by King Frederik IX of Denmark. Ninety-four members voted in favor and eleven members voted against.
The Prime Minister of the Government of Greenland Autonomous Region previously stated that the US declaration regarding the island was disrespectful, and Greenland "would never become property that anyone can purchase." (Translated/By Feng Kang)
