Sir Keir Starmer has said he "will not yield" to pressure from Donald Trump over the future of Greenland, after the US president attacked the UK's Chagos Islands deal.
Speaking at Prime Minister's Questions, Sir Keir said the US president had criticised the Chagos deal after previously saying he supported it "for the express purpose of putting pressure on me and Britain in relation to my values and principles on the future of Greenland".
On Tuesday, Trump called the UK's deal to give the Chagos Islands to Mauritius and lease back a key military base an "act of great stupidity".
He has threatened to impose tariffs on European countries who oppose his demand to take control of Greenland.
Sir Keir told MPs "the future of Greenland is for the people of Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark alone" - and said he would be hosting the Danish premier Mette Frederiksen in Downing Street on Thursday.
