Denmark provided US support on intercepting oil tanker, Danish official says
A Danish government official says Denmark provided the U.S. with support seizing an oil tanker violating sanctions amid the dispute over Greenland. Tuesday’s acknowledgement of Danish support for the U.S. operation comes at a moment of tension between the NATO allies as President Donald Trump has repeatedly called for the U.S. to take over Greenland. The vast Arctic island is a semiautonomous territory of Denmark. Denmark’s foreign minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, said earlier Tuesday that U.S. Vice President JD Vance will host a meeting with him and his Greenlandic counterpart in Washington this week.
