The issue has since moved to a diplomatic track."We are ready to defend every inch of NATO, including our own territory... Of course we will defend the kingdom of Denmark," Frederiksen said, reiterating that Greenland was not for sale."One of the reasons why we have built NATO many, many years ago, is if anything happens to one of us, then everybody should stand up for each other," she said.
