<p>President Donald Trump suggested a shift away from purely diplomatic strategies in his fixation to acquire Greenland, telling Norway&#8217;s prime minister that America&#8217;s interests must come first.</p>
<p>In the message to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Støre obtained by <a href="https://x.com/nickschifrin/status/2013107018081489006?utm_source=sdrn%3Avg%3Aarticle%3Aq6AdB0">PBS</a> on Sunday, Trump wrote, &#8220;Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.&#8221;</p>
<p>The five-person Nobel Peace Prize Committee, selected by Norway&#8217;s legislature, awarded last year&#8217;s prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado despite Trump&#8217;s strong push to win it for himself.</p>
<p>&#8220;Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a &#8216;right of ownership&#8217; anyway?&#8221; Trump continued. &#8220;There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT.&#8221;</p>
<p>Machado gifted her Nobel Prize to Trump last week during her visit with the president at the White House, where the two discussed the future of Venezuela following Trump&#8217;s capture of dictator Nicolás Maduro.</p>
<p>In a statement shared with The Daily Wire, White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said, &#8220;President Trump believes Greenland is a strategically important location that is critical from the standpoint of national security, and he is confident Greenlanders would be better served if protected by the United States from modern threats in the Arctic region.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump again <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115919803174585205">addressed</a> his push for Greenland in a late-night Truth Social post on Sunday, writing, &#8220;NATO has been telling Denmark, for 20 years, that &#8216;you have to get the Russian threat away from Greenland.&#8217; Unfortunately, Denmark has been unable to do anything about it. Now it is time, and it will be done!!!&#8221;</p>
<p>Earlier this month, the White House did not rule out using military force to take over Greenland, arguing that it must leave all options on the table as negotiations continue with Greenland and Denmark, which oversees the territory&#8217;s defense. Denmark&#8217;s and Greenland&#8217;s foreign ministers <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/denmark-maintains-fundamental-disagreement-with-trump-on-greenland-after-white-house-meeting?author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Denmark+Maintains+%E2%80%98Fundamental+Disagreement%E2%80%99+With+Trump+On+Greenland+After+White+House+Meeting">met</a> with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the White House last Wednesday, but no significant agreement was reached in the talks, according to Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, who added that Denmark and Greenland &#8220;still have a fundamental disagreement&#8221; with the United States.</p>
<p>The president is pressuring NATO allies to accept his plan for U.S. control of Greenland. On Saturday, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-raises-pressure-for-greenland-purchase-hits-8-nations-with-tariffs?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump+Raises+Pressure+For+Greenland+Purchase%2C+Hits+8+Nations+With+Tariffs">said</a> he would hit Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland with an additional 10% tariff in response to their opposition to the United States acquiring Greenland.</p>
<p>Trump has said he is concerned that China or Russia will move to take over Greenland if the United States doesn&#8217;t take control of the territory soon. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent echoed Trump&#8217;s message on Greenland during an appearance on NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; on Sunday, saying the &#8220;fight for the Arctic is real.&#8221;</p>
<p>“Make it part of the United States, and there will not be a conflict,” Bessent said. “Because the United States right now, we are the hottest country in the world; we are the strongest country in the world. Europeans project weakness; U.S. projects strength.”</p>
