Trump Reiterates Interest in Acquiring Greenland While Greenland Officials Express Uncertainty Over Potential Partnership Opportunities
ai generated text
US President Donald Trump has expressed interest in acquiring Greenland and reasserting US control over the Panama Canal. Trump stated that he believes the US will obtain Greenland, while a Greenlandic politician, Mute Egede, rejected Trump's remarks, asserting that Greenland is an independent territory with its own government and cannot be sold or taken.
The direction that Greenland wants to take will be decided by Greenlanders.
The people of Greenland are neither American nor Danish; we are Greenlandic.
We don't want to be Americans, nor Danes … Americans and their leader need to understand this. We're not for sale and cannot simply be taken. Our future will be decided by us in Greenland.
And I think we're going to get it — one way or the other, we're going to get it.
We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.
It's a very small population but very, very large piece of land, and very, very important for military security.
