Responding to the post, external by Ms Miller – a right-wing podcaster and former aide to Trump during his first term – Mr Soerensen said: “Just a friendly reminder about the US and the Kingdom of Denmark: We are close allies and should continue to work together as such.
“US security is also Greenland’s and Denmark’s security. Greenland is already part of NATO. The Kingdom of Denmark and the United States work together to ensure security in the Arctic.”
Mr Soerensen pointed out that Denmark had significantly increased its defence spending in 2025, committing $13.7bn (£10.2bn) “that can be used in the Arctic and North Atlantic. Because we take our joint security seriously”.
He added: “And yes, we expect full respect for the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark.”
The exchange comes after the US carried out a major military operation against Venezuela on Saturday, capturing its president Nicolas Maduro and his wife and removing them to New York.
Trump later said the US would “run” Venezuela and US oil companies would “start making money for the country”.
