Ireland’s Foreign Affairs Minister on Sunday described the tariffs being threatened by US President Donald Trump over European allies’ stance on Greenland as “completely unacceptable”.
The decision “is completely unacceptable and deeply regrettable,” said Helen McEntee”.
“Ireland has been crystal clear that the future of Greenland is a matter to be determined by Denmark and by the Greenlandic people, in line with well-established democratic principles and international law,” she added.
