The UK maintains strong relations with both the US and Denmark, including as close NATO Allies, and on the shared priority of security in the High North.

The UK has a longstanding policy of respecting self-determination. The Foreign Secretary and I have been clear that Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and the future of their constitutional arrangements is a matter for the people and Government of Greenland, and the Kingdom of Denmark.
