# Politics LIVE: Keir Starmer Schedules Urgent No10 Press Conference Regarding Greenland Situation

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has announced an emergency press conference to address the ongoing crisis concerning Greenland. Scheduled for today at No10, the meeting aims to clarify the UK government's stance amid rising tensions and international concerns over Greenland's governance and resources.

The urgency of this conference comes in response to Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen's remarks, asserting that "Europe will not be blackmailed." This statement reflects the solid resolve of Denmark in maintaining control over Greenland, despite pressure from external entities.

During the press conference, a Government source indicated that the UK’s approach will be “led by our values,” underscoring the importance of ethical considerations over opportunistic actions. Details surrounding the discussions expected today remain under wraps, but significant implications for UK-Denmark relations may emerge, impacting diplomatic ties and trade agreements.

As the situation develops, the government's strategy will likely focus on balancing national interests with respect for Greenland's autonomy and resources.
