J.D. Vance and second lady Usha Vance will be part of a delegation visiting Greenland, after Trump's statements that the U.S. should own the Danish territory.

The United States is exerting "unacceptable pressure" on Greenland, Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said on Tuesday, ahead of an unsolicited visit by a high-profile U.S. delegation to the semi-autonomous Danish territory this week.

Greenland's prime minister said an upcoming visit from Second Lady Usha Vance and members of the Trump administration is a "provocation."

Greenland’s prime minister said a planned visit to the island by US officials, including second lady Usha Vance, is “highly aggressive,” plunging relations to a new low after President Donald Trump vowed to annex the autonomous Danish territory.

Greenland's people are bracing for another visit from U.S. President Donald Trump’s inner circle. Second lady Usha Vance's office said Sunday she is set to travel to the autonomous Danish territory of Denmark this week.

Greenland flatly denied a claim made by President Donald Trump that officials from the island invited a delegation led by Usha Vance, the wife of Vice President JD Vance, to visit the Arctic territory this week.
