Greenland Leader Condemns US Flag Map as "Disrespectful"

The Prime Minister of Greenland has issued a strong rebuke after an image depicting the island covered by the United States flag spread on social media. The picture was posted by the wife of a White House adviser. In response, Premier Múte Bourup Egede stated clearly that "our country is not for sale." Egede called the image "disrespectful" and emphasized the need to respect Greenland's sovereignty. The autonomous Danish territory handles its own domestic affairs.
