U.S. President Donald Trump renews his call for the United States to control Greenland during a NATO summit in Turkey. According to multiple reports, Trump says Greenland should be controlled by the U.S. rather than Denmark, a country that still holds sovereignty over the semi-autonomous Arctic territory. His remarks come as NATO leaders gather and are framed by some coverage as linked to broader security and investment concerns in the Arctic.
The statements prompt fresh tensions between Washington and Copenhagen, with both nations described as founding NATO members. Reporting characterizes the dispute as having moved into a diplomatic track following the comments. Several outlets note that Trump’s assertions revive an earlier U.S. claim and are presented amid ongoing discussions involving allies at the summit.
Overall, the reports agree that Trump’s remarks at the NATO gathering intensify uncertainty around the status of Greenland and its security arrangements, and they drive renewed diplomatic attention between the U.S. and Denmark.
