BREAKING: Joseph Kent, head of the US National Counterterrorism Center, resigned over the US-Israel war in Iran, saying in a letter to President Donald Trump that “Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation".
Premier of Greenland 🇬🇱 statement this morning;
This morning, I am both saddened and grateful 🇬🇱
Saddened, because during a press conference last night, the President of the United States once again expressed a desire to take over Greenland. With such statements, our country is reduced to a question of security and power. That is not how we see ourselves, and it is not how Greenland can or should be spoken about.
We are a people with a long history, a strong culture, and a vibrant democracy. We are a country with responsibility for our own territory and for our own future. Our territorial integrity and our right to self-determination are firmly anchored in international law and cannot simply be ignored.
That is also why I am grateful.
Thank you to everyone here at home for the clear support and unity that has been shown. The calmness and dignity with which you have met this situation send a strong signal of a people who stand firm in their values and in their responsibility.
I would also like to thank heads of government and partners around the world who have clearly and unequivocally expressed their respect for Greenland, for our democratic institutions, and for the fundamental principles of international law. That support confirms that we here at home do not stand alone.
Once again: Greenland is our country. Decisions are made here. And I will at all times fight for our freedom and our right to decide for ourselves and to shape our own future.
For now, I hope that the peace of Christmas can settle over us all.
Merry Christmas 🇬🇱💙🇬🇱
@LAGovJeffLandry@realDonaldTrump Thank you for serving your "land of freedom"???But dont be like Putin or Hitler,trying to take Greenland,is part of Denmark,stay in US...dont follow crazy leaders...
Is this normal in your countries? A president that continues to lie even if he has been corrected a hundred times on these numbers.
In Denmark, people dont like being told lies. Voters punish it. Why do Americans accept and vote for it? I dont get it.
Russian TV host Andrei Norkin's realisation that his country lacks freedom of speech:
If I back the decision to withdraw from Kherson, I'm going to jail for questioning Russia's territorial integrity
And if I oppose it, I'm going to jail for discrediting the armed forces
