On this Special Report, Shivani Giri discusses US President Donald Trump's renewed assertion that the United States intends to acquire Greenland. Trump has stated, 'It is time. It will be done now,' claiming that NATO has warned Denmark for two decades about the necessity of removing Russian influence from the region. The report highlights Trump's frustration with Denmark's perceived inaction regarding security threats in the Arctic. Furthermore, the US President has reportedly issued threats of tariffs against allies who oppose the Greenland plan, hinting at potential military considerations as the Arctic becomes a strategic priority. While some NATO nations remain divided, local protests in Greenland and opposition from Germany underscore the geopolitical friction caused by these statements. The programme explores the escalating tensions and the strategic importance of the Arctic in current international relations.
