because it feels like a betrayal from the american PRESIDENT. We have fought shoulder to shoulder with your soldiers in afghanistan and iraq where we have had greenlandic soldiers and danish soldiers fighting. Fighting for freedom and for democracy. Right now we have unwillingly become the front for the same fight for democracy, for freedom, and for human rights. We want democracy but we are not respected. Please, MR. PRESIDENT, please all americans, we would love you to act. We need you to act. We need you to call all your senators, all your politicians come and tell them they need to act. They need to stop your PRESIDENT. This is not only a matter of greenland, this is a matter of the world order as we know it. A matter of sovereignty and it is a matter of the border. Please, act. Please, speak to all you know about this. Just to make sure you know, greenland is protected by all european countries now -- almost -- and also denmark has troops. This would not be just an attack on greenland, this would also be an attack on the nato alliance. Wake up, america. I know it is early your time, wake up. You need to act. We can fight this fight together . Within the U.S., europe, and also for greenland. please support greenland and follow our demonstration campaign on supportgreenland.Org. Juan: could you talk about the claim PRESIDENT Trump if he does not act united states doesn' t acquire greenland or buy greenland, that there are threats from china and russia to move in? well, this situation is very bad. We can' t go back in time but we can wake up now. It is very important that the american people all over the U.S., they act now fre to contact her politicians. Contact your press. Make sure to tell them you support greenland not only because of greenland, but because greenland is now the front for the fight for democracy. It is very important also to understand this is not just a politcal or geopolitical fight. This is a matter of trust between the people. We can trust our democracies. We have an election in greenland last year and we had -- we have an election in denmark this year. It is very important to understand there is a close cooperation between the greenlandic and danish leader. American presidents try to split our two countries but it only made us stand even closer together. So the leader of greenland message is very clear that if we have to choose, if greenland had to choose between united states or denmark, greenland will choose denmark and europe. So it is very important that you wake up and you see this not only as a fight for greenland, but also for the trust. We as greenlanders can have for the americans and the nato alliance. So this is not only greenland being attacked, this is democracy, freedom, and the world order as we know it that is being attacked.
