China Confirms Support for Denmark Sovereignty on Greenland Amid US Pressure

News summary

China has publicly affirmed its full respect for Denmark's sovereignty and territorial integrity regarding Greenland, amid ongoing U.S. interest in acquiring the semi-autonomous Danish territory. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi emphasized this stance during a meeting with Denmark's Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen in Beijing, while also urging Denmark to reciprocate by supporting China's claims over Taiwan and other territorial issues. The diplomatic exchange follows China's criticism of Denmark hosting former Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen, which strained relations due to Beijing's sovereignty claim over Taiwan. Despite past tensions, China and Denmark continue to cooperate closely on green initiatives, scientific innovation, and trade, reflecting a shared commitment to multilateralism and free trade. Beijing also values deepening ties with the European Union and sees Denmark as a partner in these efforts. The situation highlights the complex geopolitical dynamics involving U.S. ambitions, Chinese territorial claims, and Denmark's diplomatic balancing act between these major powers.
