Trump: 'We Saved Greenland in WWII from Falling into Other Hands'

During his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Donald Trump presented a positive picture of the American economy, describing it as the fastest recovering in history. He also criticized Europe, arguing that its economic course is incorrect and that the US is 'following' it both in its rise and fall. Trump reiterated his claim of success with his tariff policy and referred to new trade agreements. However, he surprised many with his assertion that the US 'saved' Greenland during World War II, arguing that Denmark could not protect it from 'others'. He also stated that the US is experiencing the fastest and most dramatic economic recovery in history.
