Trump said, “We’ll get Greenland. Yeah, 100%”;, arguing that while there’s a “good possibility that we could do it without military force ... I don’t take anything off the table.”;
DAILY POST reported that Denmark had kicked against the move by the US to take over the island.
Mostly recently, Denmark condemned United States Vice President, JD Vance’s claim that the European country has not done enough for Greenland.
The US vice-president and his wife Usha were in the Greenland on Friday during a trip to the Pituffik space base in north-western Greenland.
His comments was viewed by both Copenhagen and Nuuk as a provocation.
“Our message to Denmark is very simple: you have not done a good job by the people of Greenland,”; Vance told a press conference.
He went on to accuse Denmark of underinvesting in the people and security architecture of Greenland.
Danish foreign minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen responded via X on Saturday.
The minister said, “We are open to criticisms, but let me be completely honest, we do not appreciate the tone in which it’s being delivered.
“This is not how you speak to your close allies, and I still consider Denmark and the United States to be close allies.”;
