Washington, D.C. After Denmark’s top diplomat said he could not persuade the administration to abandon its plans to seize the island, US President Donald Trump left open the possibility of a resolution to his plans regarding Greenland on Wednesday.
In order to resolve “misunderstandings” following Trump’s harsh remarks toward the fellow NATO member, the foreign ministers of Denmark and Greenland, an autonomous territory under Copenhagen’s sovereignty, met with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the White House.
Speaking after the meeting, which he did not attend, Trump sounded conciliatory on Greenland for the first time, recognizing Denmark’s interests even as he reiterated that he was not ruling out any alternatives.
I get along well with Denmark, and we’ll see how things turn out. Trump stated, I think something will work out, without providing any details.

Speaking after leaving the White House, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen declared that a US occupation of Greenland was “absolutely not necessary.
