Trump revives interest in acquiring Greenland for U.S. national security
President-elect Donald Trump has renewed his interest in acquiring Greenland, calling it essential for U.S. national security. He made this statement while announcing his ambassador pick for Denmark, emphasizing the strategic value of the island. Trump previously expressed interest in buying Greenland in 2019, but Denmark's Prime Minister stated it is not for sale. The current geopolitical climate and Greenland's natural resources add complexity to any potential acquisition. Experts suggest that Greenland's value could be significantly higher than past offers, considering its size and resources. However, any purchase would require consent from Denmark and the people of Greenland.
