During a 45-minute phone call, Frederiksen emphasized Greenland's right to self-determination and Denmark’s commitment to bolstering Arctic security.

Meanwhile, Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen summoned the foreign policy committee for discussions, signaling Denmark’s proactive stance on the matter.
Greenland’s significance in Arctic security and international trade has drawn heightened global attention, underscoring its critical role in geopolitical strategies.
