Trump thought during his first term about buying the largest island, even as Copenhagen, an ally of NATO, insisted that he was not sold.
From the moment of returning to the White House, Trump has repeatedly stated that the United States will come to control Greenland, insisting that it supports the idea for strategic reasons for national security – not taking into account American expansionism.

“The boat landed there 200 years ago. And they say they have the rights to it,” Trump said. “I don’t know if it’s true. I don’t think it’s really.”
