LONDON - British Foreign Secretary David Lammy on Jan 9 refused to condemn President-elect Donald Trump’s Greenland ambitions while insisting that the US acquiring the self-governing Danish territory is “not going to happen”.

Foreign secretary also hit back at Trump’s demands that the UK double its defence spending to 5 per cent of GDP

U.S. president-elect Donald Trump has said he wants to make Greenland an American territory, but residents of the Arctic island aren't taking the threat too seriously, saying their land isn’t up for grabs.
