US Senator Apologizes for Lindsey Graham’s ‘Appalling’ Outburst at Danish Prime Minister. Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin has formally apologized to Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen for Republican Senator Lindsey Graham’s outburst in Munich. Slotkin expressed strong disapproval of Graham’s behavior during a meeting with Danish officials at the Munich Security Conference on February 13-15. Graham, known for his alliance with Donald Trump, verbally attacked Frederiksen, calling her a “little lady” and using offensive language regarding Greenland. The heated exchange led to Slotkin walking out of the meeting early, calling Graham’s actions “appalling” and “wildly inappropriate.” Despite the backlash, Graham stood by his remarks, reiterating his stance on Greenland’s strategic importance for NATO defenses. The incident reflects ongoing tensions between the US and Denmark, even after Trump withdrew his territorial claim to Greenland in late January. Slotkin’s apology emphasized that threats to invade Greenland were unnecessary and counterproductive to US security. The Democratic lawmaker acknowledged that the transatlantic relationship had shifted since Trump’s push to claim Greenland, but emphasized shared values between the two nations.
