White House Studying Cost of US Greenland Takeover

Показать описание
US President Donald Trump is dead set on taking control of Greenland, the world’s biggest island and a self-ruling territory of Denmark, despite opposition from Greenlanders and Danes.

Trump first put forward the idea of buying Greenland in 2019, during his first term as president. Since returning to the White House, he’s stepped up his rhetoric. “We need it. We have to have it,” Trump said on a conservative talk show on March 26, just weeks after vowing in a speech to Congress that he would “get” Greenland “one way or the other.”

It’s baffled and frustrated officials in Copenhagen and Greenland’s capital Nuuk, who’ve been clear that the territory is not for sale and its people have no desire for their land to become the 51st US state.
