"US President Donald Trump has said repeatedly that he wants to take over Greenland an idea rejected by most people living there."
"There is alarm in Denmark, which owns the world's biggest island, and in the European Union and NATO, too."
"So, could Trump really get his way?"
US President Donald Trump repeatedly proposed taking over Greenland, prompting rejection from most residents. The proposal has generated alarm in Denmark, which formally owns the world's largest island, and among European Union and NATO partners concerned about territorial stability and alliance dynamics.

The repeated public statements raised immediate diplomatic discomfort and questions about legal, political and strategic feasibility. Observers consider the practical obstacles of acquisition, the importance of Danish sovereignty, Greenlandic self-determination, and potential international ramifications for NATO and EU relations.
