Danish official strikes back at Vance’s Greenland comments: ‘We do not appreciate the tone’

Denmark hit back at the Trump administration’s «tone» regarding Greenland on Friday, saying «this is not how you speak to your close allies.»
Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen released the message in a recorded video just hours after Vice President JD Vance visited an American military base in Greenland, where the vice president criticized Denmark.
«I have a message for our American friends and all others who are listening,» Rasmussen said. «Much is being said these days. Many accusations and many allegations have been made. And of course we are open to criticism. But let me be completely honest: we do not appreciate the tone in which it is being delivered. This is not how you speak to your close allies. And I still consider Denmark and the United States to be close allies.»
The Trump administration has argued that Denmark is failing to protect Greenland from Russian and Chinese aggression, with Vance telling American soldiers at the U.S.’s Pituffik Space Base in northwest Greenland that «Denmark hasn’t done a good job at keeping Greenland safe.»

«Our message to Denmark is very simple: You have not done a good job by the people of Greenland,» Vance said. «You have underinvested in the people of Greenland, and you have underinvested in the security architecture of this incredible, beautiful landmass filled with incredible people. That has to change.»

Trump has made it a mission to take over Greenland from Denmark in his second administration.
Rasmussen said that «we respect» the need for the U.S. to have a greater military presence in Greenland, and believes that «much more» can be done within the existing framework of the 1951 defense agreement with the U.S.
«Let us make use of that and let us do it together,» the foreign minister said.

Rasmussen noted that Vance said that both Denmark and the U.S. have done little in the Arctic. In his message, Rasmussen said both countries have been «harvesting the peace dividend» and acting on the assumption that the Arctic should be «a low-changing area.»
«But that time is over,» he said. «Status quo is not an option. And that is why we have stepped up as well.»
Rasmussen detailed how Copenhagen invested a billion dollars in Arctic security a few weeks ago to provide more drones, ships and personnel in the area.
The foreign minister also noted that Greenland is a part of NATO and welcomed all allies to play «a greater role in the Arctic,» though said Copenhagen would step up to do its part.

«We will shoulder our share of the responsibility. No one should doubt that,» Rasmussen said.

La dictadura de Maduro ordenó custodiar dos instalaciones petroleras tras el ataque de Estados Unidos a un puerto clave del régimen

La dictadura de Nicolás Maduro ordenó el refuerzo militar en dos de las principales instalaciones energéticas de Venezuela en medio de la presión por parte de Estados Unidos, que en las últimas semanas ejecutó ataques directos contra infraestructura vinculada al narcotráfico y avanzó en el bloqueo del comercio petrolero del país.
La Fuerza Armada Nacional Bolivariana (FANB), pilar del sostenimiento del régimen chavista, informó que mantiene unidades desplegadas en el Centro de Refinación Paraguaná, en el estado Falcón, y en el Complejo Petroquímico Ana María Campos, en Zulia, una región fronteriza con Colombia históricamente atravesada por el contrabando y el crimen organizado.
El anuncio fue realizado por el jefe militar de la región occidental, Pedro González Ovalles, en un mensaje difundido por el alto mando castrense.
Según afirmó, el despliegue busca “garantizar la seguridad” de ambas instalaciones, aunque la decisión se produce en medio del aislamiento internacional del régimen y de denuncias sobre el uso de puertos venezolanos para actividades ilícitas.

El refuerzo coincide con la revelación del diario The New York Times de que la Agencia Central de Inteligencia (CIA) de Estados Unidos llevó a cabo un ataque con drones contra un muelle en Venezuela que, según funcionarios estadounidenses, era utilizado por la organización criminal Tren de Aragua para almacenar y despachar cargamentos de droga. De acuerdo con el diario, la operación no dejó víctimas y representa la primera acción conocida de Estados Unidos dentro del territorio venezolano.
El propio presidente Donald Trump confirmó la ofensiva.
“Hubo una gran explosión en la zona del muelle donde cargan las drogas en los barcos”, declaró a periodistas en Mar-a-Lago. Washington sostiene que el ataque forma parte de una campaña ampliada contra redes narcotraficantes que operan con protección de la dictadura de Nicolás Maduro.
El Pentágono ha desplegado drones MQ-9 Reaper en el Caribe como parte de esa estrategia. Según The New York Times, la operación marca un giro en la política estadounidense, que hasta ahora se había concentrado en interceptar embarcaciones en aguas internacionales. Trump había anticipado que Estados Unidos comenzaría a atacar objetivos en tierra vinculados al narcotráfico.
La presión aumentó además tras la incautación de dos buques que transportaban crudo venezolano y el anuncio de un bloqueo total a petroleros sancionados que entren o salgan del país caribeño. La medida golpea directamente a la principal fuente de ingresos del régimen en un contexto de colapso económico y deterioro de la industria energética.
El Centro de Refinación Paraguaná, uno de los complejos más grandes del mundo, opera muy por debajo de su capacidad desde hace años por falta de inversión, corrupción y sanciones. El complejo Ana María Campos, dedicado a fertilizantes y derivados del gas, también ha sufrido paralizaciones recurrentes.
Desde Caracas, funcionarios del régimen denunciaron “amenazas” y “ataques”, sin referirse directamente a la operación estadounidense. El llamado “número dos” del chavismo y ministro de Interior de Maduro, Diosdado Cabello, habló de una campaña de “acoso”, mientras que la chavista Delcy Rodríguez instó a trabajadores petroleros a permanecer en “alerta permanente”.
La dictadura venezolana habló sobre supuestos planes de sabotaje contra instalaciones energéticas, incluidos ataques con explosivos.

Estados Unidos mantiene desde mediados de año un amplio despliegue aeronaval en el Caribe, que justifica como parte de su lucha contra el narcotráfico transnacional.
Para Washington, el régimen de Venezuela se ha convertido en un nodo central de esas redes.

US judge orders suspect detained for threatening to kill Richard Grenell

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A federal judge in Alexandria, Virginia, on Tuesday ordered the detention of a 33-year-old man charged with threatening to kill President Donald Trump ally and Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell, in what Justice Department officials described as a win for the Trump administration – and for Lindsey Halligan, the acting U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Grenell, a former U.S. ambassador to Germany, was not in court for the arraignment Tuesday afternoon, and was identified in a press release only as a «federal employee.»
The Justice Department identified Grenell to Fox News Digital as the individual in question.
The suspect, Scott Allen Bolger, was charged with transmitting threats in interstate commerce, and with making false statements to federal officers, who later used phone evidence to trace the threats back to him. He was arraigned in federal court in Alexandria.
Justice Department officials told Fox News Digital that the decision to hold an individual in pretrial detention is somewhat rare, and described the win as a victory for the Justice Department.
According to court documents, Bolger used Google Voice to send threatening messages to Grenell, including allegedly threatening to kill him. Google Voice allows users to make calls and send messages to phone numbers that are not tied to their primary devices.
Bolger is also accused of lying to members of a federal task force who went to his residence in McLean to question him, falsely identifying himself as «Brian Black.»

They also noted that Halligan, who Trump installed as U.S. attorney for EDVA earlier this year, attended the arraignment.
Halligan attended the proceedings, but did not play a formal role, Fox News Digital confirmed.
The Justice Department also shared a victim statement from Grenell with Fox News Digital that was read aloud in court.
«In my current role as a presidential envoy, I have been attacked and harassed by people who don’t know me and who simply want to leave nasty, rude and angry messages because I don’t share their political viewpoint,» Grenell said in the statement.
«But I strongly believe it is their right to be bitter and angry. I understand the passion. And I think the freedom to be rude and angry is a cherished right.»
«But today is much different,» he said. «Today we are dealing with someone who went far beyond sharing his angry opinion. Today we see a man who wants to kill someone because of their political differences.»
«And as we have sadly learned from my friend Charlie Kirk’s death, we must take talk of violence and calls for death seriously. «
«This individual crossed the line from sharing his viewpoint to wanting to shoot someone in the face because he disagrees with them politically. It is very troubling,» he said, adding, «The people doing what he is doing, and there are many, must be given clear instructions from community leaders that their calls for shooting people in the head will have swift and severe consequences. Unstable people are watching what we do today.»

Notably, the determination to hold Bolger in pretrial detention was made by U.S. Magistrate Judge William Fitzpatrick.
Fitzpatrick most recently made headlines for issuing scathing broadsides against DOJ for its handling of grand jury materials in the Comey case, which he said, last month, presented «irregularities» that «may rise to the level of government misconduct.»
The suspect’s arrest comes at a time when threats and intimidation aimed at high-profile figures across all three branches of government have appeared to escalate.

Polls have shown that people believe political violence is on the rise in the wake of Kirk’s assassination, the murder of two Minnesota Democratic lawmakers and violence toward immigration enforcement officials.
