President-elect Trump Again Seeks to Buy Greenland, Citing "Absolute Necessity" for National Security
Dec 23, 2024, 10:46 AM
President-elect Donald Trump has renewed his interest in purchasing Greenland from Denmark, stating that U.S. ownership and control of the island is an "absolute necessity" for national security and freedom throughout the world. This echoes his previous attempts in 2019 during his first term, when he expressed a desire to acquire Greenland—a proposal that was rejected by Denmark, whose Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called it "absurd." Trump's renewed call highlights his belief that control over Greenland is crucial for U.S. strategic interests.
