Rubio says technical talks with Denmark, Greenland officials over Arctic security have begun

The talks aim to resolve tensions from U.S. efforts to acquire Greenland and address Arctic security concerns involving Russia and China, with a working group established earlier this month.

  • On January 28, 2026, Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said Greenland had red lines that could not be crossed in discussions with the United States while meeting Mette Frederiksen and Emmanuel Macron at Sciences Po, Paris.
  • U.S. President Donald Trump's repeated calls to take over Greenland prompted the dispute with Denmark and Greenland, and he eased tariff and military threats after European allies' pushback and Wall Street losses.
  • Officials point to Russia's Arctic military moves and say more surveillance is needed as Moscow has modernized bases, while Jens-Frederik Nielsen said, `We are under pressure, serious pressure.`
  • Technical talks between the United States, Denmark and Greenland begin today, and a working group created earlier this month will meet regularly, with Marco Rubio saying the process starts today.
  • Amid shaken transatlantic ties, Europe is moving to reduce dependence on the United States after the U.S. demand for Greenland control, while European leaders urged unity and Russia called threat claims a myth.
