Greenland Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said Monday that the Arctic island would not be pressured over U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff threats.
In a joint statement, leaders of eight countries said they stand in "full solidarity" with Denmark and Greenland. Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen added: "Europe will not be blackmailed."
E.U. ambassadors will hold an emergency meeting on Greenland after President Donald Trump threatened tariffs on eight European countries that sent troops there.
