Verger, C. “Trump and the purchase of Greenland: bluff?”, Blogpost, Jacques Delors Institute, January 2025
In the Oval Office on 21 January and before the press, President Trump reiterated his intention to acquire Greenland for reasons of «international security», referring to threats from China and Russia, whose ships patrol the area.
Without ruling out the use of military force, he also stressed that possession of this territory was very costly for Denmark.
His eldest son made a short visit to Greenland before the investiture on 20 January.
