Denmark's foreign minister has summoned the top US diplomat in Copenhagen, following a report that American citizens have been conducting covert operations in Greenland.

Denmark's public broadcaster DR quoted sources as saying the aim was to infiltrate Greenland's society and promote its secession from Denmark to the US, although it was unable to clarify who the men were working for.

Danish intelligence warned Greenland was being targeted by "various kinds of influence campaigns".Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said "any attempt to interfere in the internal affairs of the Kingdom [of Denmark] will of course be unacceptable", and the US charge d'affaires had been summoned in that light.

Denmark's PET security and intelligence service said in its assessment that influence campaigns would aim to "create discord in the relationship between Denmark and Greenland".

This could be done by exploiting "existing or invented disagreements" either with "traditional, physical influence agents or via disinformation", it added. PET said it had strengthened its presence in Greenland and co-operation with its authorities.

DR's report on Wednesday gave details of a visit by one American to Greenland's capital Nuuk, saying he was seeking to compile a list of Greenlanders who backed US attempts to take over the island. The aim would be to try to recruit them for a secession movement, DR said.
The United States cannot be trusted, even with Trump gone this sort of thing will not be forgotten by it's so-called allies.
