Trump wants ‘immediate negotiations’ for Greenland but ‘won’t use force’ | BBC News


US President Donald Trump says he is seeking immediate negotiations to acquire Greenland, which he called a "vast, almost uninhabited and undeveloped country, sitting undefended".

He told world leaders at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland: "We probably won’t get anything unless I decide to use excessive strength and force, where we would be frankly unstoppable. But I won’t do that"

The US already has more than 100 military personnel permanently stationed at its Pituffik base in Greenland’s north-west – a facility it has operated since World War Two.

Under existing agreements with Denmark, the US has the power to bring as many troops as it wants to Greenland.
