President Donald Trump has refused to rule out using military force to take control of Greenland. In an interview on NBC's Meet the Press, the US President said he "doesn't rule out" using force to annex the Arctic island.

There is a strong independence movement in Greenland to break away completely from Denmark, with it currently being an autonomous territory of the European country, but that is not borne out of a desire to rush into the arms of Trump's America.
