In an interview with Fox News Sunday, J.D. Vance that “it is possible” that the United States will take over Greenland.
At the same time, Donald Trump’s vice president is lashing out at Denmark.
“There’s something that I think a lot of people don’t understand about Greenland. This is really important for our national security.”
“There are seaways that the Chinese and Russians use, and frankly, Denmark, which controls Greenland, does not do its job. It’s not a good ally," J.D. Vance for Fox News.
“So you have to ask yourself how we should solve that problem, solve our national security, and if that means that we have to take more territorial interests in Greenland, that’s what President Trump will do, because he doesn’t care what the Europeans are crying out to us. He cares to put the interests of the American people first," J.D. continues. Vance.
The vice president of the United States also highlights another point that “people are not aware of.”
“There are probably 55,000 people living in Greenland who are not actually happy with the Danish government,” J.D. Vance.
“They have great natural resources there, they have an incredibly rich country that the Danes don’t let them develop and explore.”
“Donald Trump, of course, would have a different approach if he was Greenland’s leader,” the vice president said.
Not the worst choice. They’re the second-happiest country in the world. They have freedom, look down on bigotry. They have nice pastry…

I was more referring to religion, discrimination, being open toward sexuality, reproductive rights, gender equality… But yeah,~~ you’re right.~~ Immigration is a bit of a strange one. I forgot about that. And I lack the background knowledge to understand what’s going on with that. Do they have some bad experience?
Or is this just the one big retreat left for being bigoted?I don’t know what this other guy is talking about. Yeah Denmark have its problems like any other country. But straight up saying it’s the kkk is just plain wrong.
Yeah, I figured I’d ask some follow up questions. Maybe they’d like to explain. I mean immigration seems to be a topic of concern in the banlieues of Paris and Stockholm for example. But I haven’t heard of any severe, permanent issues in Denmark. Other than that they’re more strict with immigration than for example where I live (Germany). But I have been to Denmark. And they’re definitely not the KKK. Both the news and my personal experience say they’re relatively egalitarian and liberal.
I read through some of his comments, and it seems like he is from Australia. He was probably just trying to “discuss” in bad faith. Also the comment was removed anyway.
Would you care to explain?
