Trump sparks global outrage, claiming U.S. must control Greenland for security amid rising Arctic tensions and geopolitical stakes.
Donald Trump has reignited global shock by declaring that the United States must control Greenland for national security, even refusing to rule out military force. The self-governing Danish territory sits at the heart of the Arctic and holds vast mineral wealth, shipping routes and strategic military value.
European leaders, Denmark and NATO have reacted with alarm as the idea of one Nato member threatening another becomes a real diplomatic crisis. With Greenlanders overwhelmingly opposed to joining the US, the move has triggered fierce debate about sovereignty, alliances and the future of global security.
As the Arctic opens up due to melting ice, the race between the US, China and Russia is intensifying, and Greenland is now at the centre of that power struggle.
