Following US President Donald Trump's statements about the annexation of Greenland, Berlin has also reacted.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz's government has come to Denmark's defense, demanding respect for international laws.
Sebastian Hille, spokesman for Chancellor Merz, clarified Germany's position during a press conference.
He said that Germany recognizes the island as an autonomous administration that is part of the Kingdom of Denmark. The spokesman stressed that borders cannot be moved by force and no territory can be taken by force.
"Official Berlin fully relies on the UN Charter and the principles of international law," he said.
Germany confirmed that it is in close contact with Danish and European partners to monitor the situation and maintain border stability in Europe.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has also expressed London's full support for Denmark, in response to US President Donald Trump's claims over Greenland's sovereignty.
Asked by Sky News UK on the sidelines of a visit to the English county of Berkshire, regarding Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen's harsh statements towards Trump, Starmer has taken a clear and unusual public stance against the American president.
"I'm on her side. Frederiksen is right about the future of Greenland," Starmer declared, reaffirming that the United Kingdom supports Denmark's position on the status and sovereignty of the autonomous territory.
This stance appears to signal a rare open distancing of London from Washington on a sensitive geopolitical issue, underlining the importance of respecting sovereignty and the international order.
The US President's administration plans to place Greenland under the authority of the United States Northern Command, which is responsible for defending the US territory.
Greenland, part of NATO, is of strategic importance to the US military and its ballistic missile early warning system, as the shortest route from Europe to North America passes through the Arctic island.
The European Union has also officially reacted to statements by US President Donald Trump regarding the possibility of annexing Greenland.
Through a press release, the European Commission sided with Denmark, emphasizing that the borders of member states are inviolable.
