Donald Trump insisted the United States “needs” Greenland for international security.

As vice president JD Vance visited Greenland on Friday (28 March), Trump was asked if the trip could mean a larger US military presence being deployed there eventually.

Trump didn’t answer the question, but told reporters in the Oval Office: “Greenland’s very important for the peace of the world.

“I think Denmark understands, and I think the European Union understands it. And if they don’t, we’re going to have to explain it to them.”
