The European Union will not let other nations attack its sovereign borders, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said in response to US President-elect Donald Trump's comments on Greenland regarding the "ownership and control" of the vast Arctic island that has been part of Denmark for over 600 years.
"There is obviously no question that the European Union would let other nations of the world attack its sovereign borders, whoever they are ... We are a strong continent," Barrot said.
