Greenland will not give in but needs more surveillance and security, Prime Minister says

Greenland needs more surveillance and security but will not give in to foreign pressure, Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said on Tuesday.

"What we are dealing with as a government is trying to push back from outside and handle our people who are afraid and scared," he said in a joint conversation with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen at Sciences Po University in Paris.

He said that Greenland agrees there needs to be more surveillance and security in the region "because of the way Russia acts now."
