[quote=Anonymous]During press conference today :

“Donald Trump offered an ominous warning in his ongoing campaign to acquire Greenland. During his meeting with oil and gas executives today, the president said “we are going to do something on Greenland whether they like it or not”.
“Asked why he had to “own” Greenland when the US already has military bases there, Trump said:

Because when we own it, we defend it. You don’t defend leases in the same way. We have to own it.
He later added:

You don’t defend ownership, you don’t defend leases. And we’ll have to defend Greenland. If we don’t do it, China or Russia will.
He added that he gets on very well with Russia and China, although he is “very disappointed” with Vladimir Putin.

“We’re not going to allow Russia or China to occupy Greenland, and that’s what’s going to happen if we don’t own it,” he said.”

I feel like I’d be terrified if I lived in Greenland or had friends/family there. They’d lose all their benefits at the least, and be invaded at the worst. This is not good.[/quote]
