Trump Calls Greenland A “Poorly Run Piece of Ice”

United States President Donald Trump has reset his sights on Greenland, now that Washington, Iran, and Israel have agreed to a ceasefire. Trump has notoriously suggested that the U.S. take over Greenland, and recently called it a “poorly run piece of ice.”

In a Truth Social post Wednesday evening stateside, Trump said that “NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN. REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!!”

Danish Prime Minister Says Trump Is “Very Serious” About Acquiring Greenland

The latest broadside comes after Trump announced a 2-week ceasefire after more than a month of fighting with Iran. Trump has repeatedly criticized NATO members for not joining the war effort in Iran, saying his call for action was “a great test,” while threatening to pull out of the alliance, according to a report by CNBC.

U.S. relations with European allies have frayed after Trump threatened tariffs on European countries and signaled military actionto acquire Greenland, a Danish autonomous territory. In January, Trump said he and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte had reached “the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland.” –CNBC

In the aftermath of hte agreed upon ceasefire, Trump has reignited his rhetoric over Greenland. Could we be staring at another war? Trump has taken aim at NATO over its disagreement with him on Greenland in recent days. “It all began with, if you want to know the truth, Greenland,” Trump told reporters at a White House press conference Monday. “We want Greenland. They don’t want to give it to us. And I said, ‘bye, bye.’”

U.S. Won’t Say How Far It’ll Go To Acquire Greenland

The Iran war has brought fresh tensions in the diplomatic ties. Several NATO members have resisted supporting the U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran. Several countries have denied American military aircraft the use of their airspace and declined to contribute naval forces to efforts aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz to energy shipping.

Not long ago, Trump refused to rule out military force as a means to acquire Greenland.
