Trump Threatens NATO Ally Denmark Over Greenland, Eyes Colombia After Venezuela Win
- •US President Donald Trump has adopted an aggressive stance, threatening Denmark over Greenland and also targeting Colombia, following what he termed a victory in Venezuela.
- •Trump declared Greenland a 'national security' matter, stating the US needs it due to Russian and Chinese presence, despite it being an autonomous region of NATO ally Denmark.
- •Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen strongly condemned Trump's remarks, calling them insulting and stating Greenland is 'not for sale'.
- •A controversial social media post by Katie Miller, depicting Greenland in US colors with the caption 'Soon', further fueled tensions.
- •Analysts question if NATO's Article 5 would be activated if Trump attempts to seize Greenland, as Denmark is a NATO member, potentially dragging the alliance into conflict.
Why It Matters: Trump's post-Venezuela aggression extends to NATO ally Denmark over Greenland and also to Colombia.
