Zakharova ridiculed Burbok's mistake in the Greenland statement

On February 25, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova ridiculed the mistake of the Chairman of the UN General Assembly (GA), former German Foreign Minister Annalena Burbock, who incorrectly called Greenland part of the European Union.

The former German Foreign minister said that the Americans might not have known about Greenland's membership in the European Union if they had not been informed about it.

Zakharova recalled that Greenland is not a member of the EU. Denmark is a member of the EU, but the inhabitants of the island voted to leave the European structures back in 1982, and since 1985 the territory has lost this status.

"It's amazing that the former foreign minister of a key EU member state, Germany, has never noticed that such an impressive territory as Greenland is on <...>.. There is simply no map of the European Union," the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote in his Telegram channel.

On February 14, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen refused to name the cost of Greenland at the Munich Security Conference. The politician stressed that Denmark is a sovereign state, and the right of Greenlanders to self—determination must be respected. According to her, the people of Greenland have made it clear that they do not want to become Americans.
