Trump stated the U.S. will “go as far as we have to go” to gain control of Greenland, citing national and international security needs.
JD Vance will visit Greenland’s Pituffik military base, scaling back a broader visit amid backlash from Greenland and Denmark.
Greenlandic Prime Minister Mute Egede condemned the move as “aggressive pressure” and insisted that “Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders.”
Trump has repeatedly expressed interest in acquiring Greenland, asserting that U.S. control is essential for security.
