The US president has reiterated his intention to annex the Arctic island from Denmark
US President Donald Trump’s plan to take over Greenland could lead to a war between the US and Denmark, Danish MP and Defense Committee Chairman Rasmus Jarlov has warned. The lawmaker insisted that ceding the Arctic island to the US remains out of the question for Copenhagen.
Jarlov’s remarks came after Thursday’s meeting between Trump and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, where the former reaffirmed his intention for Greenland to become part of the US. Asked about his “vision on the potential annexation of Greenland,” Trump responded, “I think it will happen,”suggesting NATO could “be instrumental” in the process.
While Rutte stopped short of endorsing the idea, he acknowledged that Trump was “totally right” to raise concerns about security in the Arctic, citing the growing presence of Russia and China in the region.
