Trump Sends US Navy Ship to Greenland: Latest Updates - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
""That will be 'no thanks' from us," Jens-Frederik Nielsen, the Greenlandic prime minister, wrote on his Facebook page on Sunday. "President Trump's idea to send a US hospital ship here to Greenland has been duly noted. But we have a public health system where care is free for citizens," he said. Frederiksen said she was "happy to live in a country where there is free and equal access to health for all. Where it's not insurances and wealth that determine whether you get proper treatment.""
""In a late social media post, the US president said he would dispatch a \"great hospital boat\" to help people in Greenland who are \"sick and not being taken care of\". He added that the ship was \"on the way\", posting an image of the USNS Mercy, a large 1,000-bed medical vessel operated by the United States Navy. The post followed comments suggesting cooperation with Jeff Landry, who Trump described as \"fantastic\".""
Donald Trump announced dispatching a US Navy hospital vessel toward Greenland and posted an image of the USNS Mercy, a 1,000-bed medical ship. He described the vessel as a "great hospital boat" to help people in Greenland who are "sick and not being taken care of" and said the ship was "on the way." The post referenced cooperation with Jeff Landry, a special envoy for US diplomatic engagement regarding Greenland. The White House has not confirmed the mission purpose. Earlier reports described a medical evacuation of a US submarine sailor near Nuuk handled with help from Joint Arctic Command (Denmark).
