La presidenta de la Comisión considera "innegociable" la soberanía europea del territorio y señala como "un error" la amenaza arancelaria de Trump a los países que mandaron tropas a la isla. Busca colaborar con EEUU porque un enfrentamiento sólo beneficiaría a los adversarios mutuos, pero, anticipa una respuesta "firme, unida y proporcional" si las tasas se materializan.
00:00Ladies and gentlemen, we consider the people of the United States not just our allies, but our friends.
00:10And plunging us into a downward spiral would only aid the very adversaries we are both so committed to keeping out of the strategic landscape.
00:22So our response will be unflinching, united and proportional.
00:30But beyond this, we have to be strategic about how we approach this issue.
00:37And this is why we are working on a package to support Arctic security.
00:42First principle, full solidarity with Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark.
00:48The sovereignty and integrity of their territory is non-negotiable.
00:53Second, we are working on a massive European investment surge in Greenland.
01:01We will work with Greenland and Denmark hand in hand to see how we can further support the local economy and infrastructure.
01:10Third, we will work with the United States and all partners on wider Arctic security.
01:21This is clearly in our shared interest and we will step up our investment.
01:26In particular, I believe we should use our defence spending surge on a European icebreaker capability and other equipment vital to the Arctic security.
01:41And fourth, in the same spirit, we need to work with all our regional partners to strengthen our common security.
