Sweden’s Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard has rejected the notion that powerful nations can act as they please. Speaking to Swedish Radio News, she said Sweden opposes a world order where major powers operate without restraint. Her remarks came in response to the U.S. president’s new threat to acquire Greenland and the recent U.S. military operation in Venezuela. According to the report, the operation involved the abduction of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro late Saturday night.

Stenergard criticized Washington’s statements about acquiring Greenland, calling them concerning and emphasizing that the island is not for sale. She noted that Greenland is an autonomous region within Denmark. She also stated that Sweden believes the recent U.S. military actions in Venezuela are inconsistent with international law.

Referring to a United Nations Security Council meeting, Stenergard mentioned that Denmark described the U.S. actions as a dangerous precedent, underscoring growing European unease over unilateral military interventions.
