Statement from Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre on Greenland

«- Such threats are unacceptable and have no place among allies. Norway's position in this matter remains unchanged," says Støre.

"Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark. Norway supports the Kingdom of Denmark's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Norway supports the talks between the United States and the Kingdom of Denmark, as agreed at the meeting earlier this week," Støre writes.

"There is broad agreement among NATO allies, including with the United States, on the need to strengthen security in the Arctic, including in Greenland.
