DEVELOPING: Trump Envoy Vows to Drive Greenland into US Fold

Breaking News: Trump Envoy Vows to Drive Greenland into US Fold

US President Donald Trump has appointed a special envoy to Greenland, sparking a fresh row with Denmark. Jeff Landry, the Republican governor of Louisiana, will serve in the volunteer position to make Greenland a part of the US. This move comes after Trump expressed interest in annexing the island, citing its strategic location and mineral wealth.

Greenland's prime minister has responded, stating that the island must "decide our own future" and its "territorial integrity must be respected." The Danish government has expressed its anger, saying it will call the US ambassador for an explanation. This development has raised concerns about the potential for conflict between the US and its Nato ally Denmark.

Trump has long been interested in Greenland, dating back to 2019 when he expressed a desire to purchase the island. Since returning to the White House in January, he has revived this interest, refusing to rule out using force to secure control of the island.

The situation remains tense, with the Danish government calling for an explanation from the US ambassador. The US envoy, Jeff Landry, has not commented further on his role or the potential implications of his appointment.

This is a developing story, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
