Denmark's foreign minister has summoned the top U.S. diplomat in Copenhagen over intelligence reports alleging covert influence operations by U.S. citizens in Greenland that aimed to whip up opposition to Danish rule, the ministry said on Wednesday.

Public broadcaster DR, citing unnamed sources, reported that at least three Americans with ties to the Trump administration were suspected of involvement in the efforts, which also sought to promote Greenland's secession from Denmark to the United States.
