French President Emmanuel Macron has reaffirmed his support for the sovereignty of the Danish territory of Greenland following renewed interest in annexing the territory from the United States.
Macron on Dec. 23 recalled his June visit to Greenland’s capital, Nuuk, saying that the territory “belongs to its people,” while Denmark is “its guarantor.”
