It is vital for the Golden Dome that we are building. NATO should be leading the way for us to get it. IF WE DON\u2019T, RUSSIA OR CHINA WILL, AND THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!\u201d Trump said in a Truth Social post ahead of Vice President Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio\u2019s meeting with officials from the island and Denmark at the White House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMilitarily, without the vast power of the United States, much of which I built during my first term, and am now bringing to a new and even higher level, NATO would not be an effective force or deterrent \u2013 Not even close! They know that, and so do I,\u201d Trump continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNATO becomes far more formidable and effective with Greenland in the hands of the UNITED STATES,\u201d he said, adding that \u201canything less than that is unacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The online post is the latest example of Trump\u2019s intensifying rhetoric on the U.S. acquiring Greenland. On Tuesday, Trump hit back at the Danish territory\u2019s prime minister, Jens-Frderik Nielsen, who said he and his people would choose Denmark over the U.S. if they had to make a decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s their problem. I disagree with them. I don\u2019t know who he is. Don\u2019t know anything about him, but that\u2019s going to be a big problem for him,\u201d Trump told reporters when asked about Nielsen\u2019s comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Greenland has received support from Denmark and other European nations in the face of Trump\u2019s calls for the U.S. to acquire it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this week, The Hill\u2019s partners at NewsNation reported that a bipartisan group of lawmakers including Sens. Chris Coons (D-Del.), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), as well as Reps. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.), Madeleine Dean (D-Pa.) and Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.), will travel to Denmark in the wake of Trump\u2019s calls to acquire its territory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump said early Wednesday that anything less than U.S. control of Greenland would be \u201cunacceptable\u201d \u201cThe United States needs Greenland for the purpose of National Security.
