Dec 23, 2024, 02:35 AM
President-elect Donald Trump has officially called for the United States to purchase Greenland, emphasizing the territory's importance for national security and global freedom. In a statement, Trump declared, "For purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity." This announcement coincides with his nomination of Ken Howery as the U.S. ambassador to Denmark, suggesting a strategic approach to U.S. interests in the region.
