Brussels, Belgium: The European Union on Wednesday said "decisions about the future of Greenland are for Greenlanders and Danes" after US President Donald Trump said he still wanted the Arctic island.

"Territorial integrity, national sovereignty and inviolability of borders are fundamental principles of international law," EU spokesman Olof Gill said. "The EU stands in full solidarity with Denmark and the people of Greenland."
