European NATO leaders have issued a joint statement that “Greenland belongs to its people” and it is for the Arctic island and Denmark only to decide on its future, after President Donald Trump’s administration reiterated its wish to take control of it.

The statement said that NATO and its allies had increased its activities and investment to make the Arctic a safe place and that Denmark and Greenland were part of that alliance.

    I’m American and I didn’t think he was joking during his first term and this term I fully expect that in a month the US will take Greenland, I don’t know anyone who thinks Trump is just a Lil goofy guy making goofy jokes.

      No prediction on when the US takes Greenland, but it’s happening as soon as the administration feels they have Venezuela under control. They’re not repeating Hitler’s mistake of not driving for the Russian oil fields before opening more fronts.
