Denmark deployed soldiers to both Iraq and Afghanistan when America launched the Global War on Terrorism. Fifty of their soldiers never came home. Now the United States refuses to rule out military action to seize Greenland from the NATO ally.

Greenland's party leaders rejected President Trump's repeated calls for the U.S. to take control of the island, saying that Greenland's future must be decided by its people.

President Donald Trump told reporters that the US ‘would do something on Greenland whether they like it or not’, amid rising geopolitical tensions.

Denmark's king changed his royal coat of arms to give Greenland more space after Donald Trump said he wanted to purchase the territory.
