Trump Reiterates Desire to 'Acquire' Greenland for US Security

Donald Trump reiterated his desire to purchase Greenland, citing national security reasons. According to him, Greenland 'should' be part of the US, as Denmark is unable to protect it. This statement comes hours after the Danish Prime Minister called on Washington to stop pressuring the region. Trump made the remarks in response to questions from reporters accompanying him on Air Force One, without further specifying the threats or pressures he is exerting on Danish authorities.
