Tensions around Greenland
Reuters notes that statements by US President Donald Trump about the need to purchase Greenland have caused tensions between Washington and Copenhagen. Greenland is a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark.
The United States and Denmark are founding members of NATO. The issue of the island’s future has also caused tensions in Europe, but later moved into the diplomatic sphere.
