Trump and Denmark Engage in Tense Negotiations Over Potential Greenland Partnership and Sovereign Boundaries
ai generated text
According to the provided articles, the Trump Administration, led by President Trump, expressed interest in acquiring Greenland from Denmark. The interest was reportedly conveyed in a 45-minute phone call five days prior to Trump's inauguration, described as contentious and aggressive by European officials briefed on the call. In the call, Trump allegedly made economic threats to Denmark, which had previously stated that Greenland is not for sale. However, Trump stated his belief that the US would ultimately gain control of the island, claiming that its 57,000 residents wanted to be part of the US.
We understand that the US is a powerful country. We are not. It is up to the US how far they will go. But come what may. We are still going to say no.
I don't really know what claim Denmark has to it, but it would be a very unfriendly act if they didn't allow that to happen because it's for the protection of the free world.
I think the people want to be with us.
I view it as, honestly, a country that should be a state.
I do believe Greenland, we'll get because it really has to do with freedom of the world.
Then, they'll get much better treatment, much better care and much lower taxes and they'll be much more secure.
It has nothing to do with the United States other than that we're the one that can provide the freedom. They can't.
