That’s why NATO might have to get involved ... we really need Greenland for national security. It’s very important,' Trump said in front of NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte.

North Atlantic Treaty Organization Secretary General Mark Rutte demurred on Thursday when President Donald Trump baited him into backing his dream of the United States annexing Greenland. Rutte—who has been nicknamed NATO’s “Trump whisperer”—shared laughs with the president throughout their Oval Office meeting on Thursday.

In a rare show of unity, party leaders say they "cannot accept the repeated statements about the annexation of Greenland."
