President Donald Trump has reiterated his interest in acquiring Greenland, suggesting the possibility of using military force to annex the semi-autonomous Danish territory. This statement was made during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on March 13, causing shock in Western Europe and dismay in Denmark. Trump's renewed push to annex Greenland, which he described as '100%', has been examined in a video that also draws parallels to the territorial ambitions of autocrats.

The top Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries, while visiting Copenhagen, stated that the U.S. Congress is unlikely to support any invasion of Greenland. Jeffries emphasized the importance of the relationship between the U.S. and Denmark, suggesting that Denmark is a crucial ally.

Jeffries also noted that the future of Greenland should be decided by its people in partnership with Denmark, distancing himself from Trump's rhetoric and actions. He highlighted concerns among American constituents about the unprecedented events unfolding under the current administration. Some observers have suggested that the U.S. should tone down talks of invading Greenland if it seeks global support for tariffs against China.
