On the 7th in Ankara, ahead of a bilateral meeting with Turkish President
Erdogan, US President Trump reiterated that Greenland should be controlled by
the United States rather than Denmark, saying Greenland is of little use to
Denmark and Denmark has not spent money on it. He said Greenland is important to
the US and tied the point to force posture in Europe, threatening to withdraw
all US troops because Europe is "very different" from 20 years ago.
