Anger in Greenland over visits this week by Usha Vance and Mike Waltz

Greenland’s prime minister Múte Egede says the trip by US second lady and national security adviser is a ‘provocation’

Usha Vance, the wife of US vice-president JD Vance, will travel to Greenland this week as President Donald Trump clings to the idea of a US annexation of the strategic, semi-autonomous Danish territory.

Vance will visit Greenland on Thursday with a US delegation to tour historical sites, learn about the territory’s heritage and attend the national dogsled race, the White House said in a statement.
