Danish Minister of Justice Peter Hummelgaard condemned the visit of Danish People’s Party leader and Danish Parliament member Morten Messerschmidt to US President-elect Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago mansion in Florida. This was reported by RIA Novosti.
As the minister emphasized, the country’s constitution states that Denmark’s foreign policy is determined by the government, not by members of parliament meeting with foreign heads of state.
Hummelgaard added that Messerschmidt’s unauthorized actions were unprofessional and raised concerns not only for Denmark’s reputation, but also for the country’s relations with Greenland.
Authorities do not know exactly what the lawmaker said during the trip or what impression he made, according to the official.
Trump has repeatedly stated that Canada and Greenland should be part of the United States. According to the politician, he also plans to return the Panama Canal to US control and rename the Gulf of Mexico to the American Gulf. Officials in Panama, Canada and Denmark reacted harshly to the Republicans’ statements, and the Russian Foreign Ministry urged them to wait for Trump to officially take office.
