President Donald Trump broke his silence on Greenland, expressing strong interest in bringing the island under U.S. control. Speaking at a press conference, Trump confirmed he is “willing to do anything” to take over Greenland, calling it a “serious national security threat.”
When asked if he would send U.S. troops to seize the island, Trump replied, “Yes.” During his Oval Office meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, he added, “I think that it will happen,” referring to annexing Greenland. He insisted the move is in “the country’s best interest and national security.”
Trump emphasized NATO’s role, saying they “need to get involved anyway.” He pointed out that the U.S. already has a military presence in Greenland, which would make the process easier. “We have several bases on Greenland and we’ve got several soldiers. Maybe you’ll see more and more people go there!” he said.
However, insiders warn this approach resembles a threat. They argue that forcing control over a country against its people’s wishes violates the UN’s humanitarian laws.
