Lavrov: Greenland is not a 'natural part' of Denmark

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that Moscow has not yet received any documents following recent talks between the United States and European countries regarding Ukraine. He also called for the release of the Russian crew members of the tanker Marinera, which was seized by the US. Lavrov warned that the plans of the President of Moldova to hold a referendum on unification with Romania could destabilize the country. He also stressed that Greenland is not a 'natural part' of Denmark, responding to Donald Trump's statements about a possible US takeover of the island. The Kremlin expressed regret over Moldova's decision to withdraw from the CIS.
