China says US shouldn't use other countries as 'pretext' to pursue its interests in Greenland

China has cautioned the United States against using other countries as a pretext to pursue its interests in Greenland, emphasizing that its activities in the Arctic comply with international law. This statement comes amid growing tensions between Washington, Denmark, and Greenland as the U.S. considers various options, including military force, to acquire the vast Arctic island. Greenland's leaders have reiterated that the island's future must be decided by its people, expressing their wish for an end to the U.S.'s perceived contempt for their country.
