Ukraine will not be the only topic discussed by the Coalition of the Willing in Paris. An unplanned topic will be the issue of Greenland, according to Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
"There is no doubt that the issue of Greenland will also be unpredictable and unplanned for us. It has caused very strong emotions throughout Europe. For Poland, two things are obvious and very difficult to agree on, let's not kid ourselves, but they are obvious and unambiguous," he says in his statement.
Tusk stresses that no NATO member should attack or threaten another member of the Alliance.
"Otherwise, NATO would lose its meaning if conflicts or mutual aggressive actions took place within the framework of this pact," the Polish Prime Minister says.
He adds that everything must be done to ensure that European-American ties do not suffer in the coming days and months as a result of certain announced decisions or misunderstandings. In addition, Tusk assured the Danes that there is no doubt about Europe's support.
"European solidarity and respect for the integrity of European states are fundamental issues, so Denmark can, of course, count on the solidarity of the whole of Europe," he stresses.
Background
Recently, Katie, the wife of US President Donald Trump's internal security adviser Stephen Miller, posted a map on social media showing Greenland colored in the colors of the US flag.
After that, Trump said recently that America needs the island for defense. He also said that the Russian and Chinese fleets allegedly surround Greenland.
Sources at Politico believe that the US could take control of Greenland in the coming months.
Denmark has already responded to Trump's statements. In particular, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen warned that if the US attempts to seize Denmark, especially by military means, it would effectively spell the end of the NATO alliance.
