Previously, Trump has repeatedly emphasized that the United States should take control of Greenland to enhance its national security. On January 22, he met with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. According to information from Axios, details of a potential agreement were discussed that could strengthen the U.S. military presence on the island and provide advantages in resource extraction.
