The EU's foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on Thursday that the European Union is discussing how to respond if the U.S. threat to acquire Greenland is real. She stated that the EU is considering various options to protect its strategic interests. Kallas emphasized that Greenland is crucial for European security and energy. She added that allies must respect each other's sovereignty. A U.S. official had earlier stated that Washington is considering the possibility of acquiring the island. Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark but has close ties with the EU.
