Greenland and Denmark on Sunday (January 4, 2025) expressed their distaste after the wife of President Donald Trump's most influential aide posted a social media picture of Greenland painted in the colours of the U.S. flag.

Katie Miller — wife of Trump's deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller — put the contentiously altered image of the Danish autonomous territory on her X feed late Saturday (January 3), after the U.S. military operation against Venezuela.

Her post had a single word above it: "SOON".

Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen called the post "disrespectful".

"Relations between nations and peoples are built on mutual respect and international law -- not on symbolic gestures that disregard our status and our rights," he stated on X.

But he also said that "there is neither reason for panic nor for concern. Our country is not for sale, and our future is not decided by social media posts".

Denmark's ambassador to the U.S., Jesper Moeller Soerensen, reacted earlier on Sunday (January 4) with his own post saying "we expect full respect for the territorial integrity" of Denmark, above a link to Katie Miller's image.

Mr. Trump has repeatedly made clear that he wants Greenland to become an annexed part of the United States.

Moves edging towards that goal by his government — including his appointment of an envoy to the Danish territory — have drawn the ire of both Copenhagen and the European Union.

Stephen Miller is widely seen as the architect of much of Mr. Trump's policies, guiding the president on his hardline immigration policies and domestic agenda.

The United States's European allies were rattled by Mr. Trump sending in his military on Saturday (January 3) to attack Caracas and grab Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro, who is now being held by U.S. authorities in New York.

Mr. Trump has said the United States will now "run" Venezuela indefinitely and tap its huge oil reserves.
