Iceland PM Says Greenland Belongs to Greenlanders, Not the United States! Prime Minister of Iceland @KristrunFrosta delivered a clear message at the 2026 NATO Summit in Ankara, Türkiye: Greenland belongs to the people of Greenland. Responding to renewed comments from US President @realDonaldTrump, Frostadóttir said Greenlanders have been clear that they do not wish to become part of the United States. She also referred to the position of Denmark and the Kingdom of Denmark, stressing that the same message has been expressed by Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. While acknowledging that Trump’s remarks were not surprising, given that Greenland has been a recurring theme in his statements, Frostadóttir said she remains hopeful because formal talks are taking place through a working group. #Greenland #Iceland #NATO #Trump

Real restoration cannot be imposed from above. It needs fair tools, fair funding and a fairer food supply chain. Europe needs nature recovery — and economic support for the communities who make it possible. #eudebates #NatureRestoration #Biodiversity

Italy’s government says it will act immediately with a diesel tax cut. Meloni admits it will not solve everything.
