Will Donald Trump take Greenland by force?

Greenland is what Donald Trump wants.

The US president claims Washington should retake control of the semi-autonomous Danish territory because it is crucial to US national security.

After US Vice President JD Vance announced his visit to Greenland, Trump’s comments have sparked concern there.

Greenland is strategically located and rich in minerals. However, its residents claim that no land is available for sale.

Will the threat also alienate the US’s allies in Europe?

How far will Trump go to obtain his desires?
