Trump Appoints PayPal Co-founder Ken Howery as Ambassador to Denmark, Calls for U.S. Ownership of Greenland
Dec 23, 2024, 01:23 AM
President Trump has announced the appointment of Ken Howery, co-founder of PayPal, investor at Founders Fund, and a friend of Peter Thiel, as the new United States Ambassador to Denmark. Howery previously served as U.S. Ambassador to Sweden during Trump's first term, where he advanced defense, security, and economic ties. In tandem with this appointment, President Trump has reignited his interest in purchasing Greenland, stating that "for purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world, the United States feels that the ownership of Greenland is a necessity." This move revisits Trump's earlier proposal to acquire Greenland and has sparked renewed discussions about the strategic importance of the territory.
