Amid Panama Canal Row, Donald Trump Says He Wants To Own Greenland

[TimesNowNews] Throwing chaff, I suspect.

Another perspective, courtesy of Skidmark:

President-elect Donald Trump has reignited his interest in buying Greenland, alleging that US ownership of the island is an 'absolute necessity' to protect global 'national security and freedom'.

[DM] Trump, 78, made the stark declaration Sunday night as he announced his pick for ambassador to Denmark, PayPal co-founder Ken Howery, who also served as the US ambassador to Sweden from 2019 to 2021.

'For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity,' he wrote on Truth Social.

#4 I think the Panama thing was just a conversational hand grenade tossed into the room to get a discussion started. I would be unsurprised if Greenland as the 57th state was not the intended subject.

#6 The Trans-Panama Pipeline was opened in 1982 as an alternative to carry crude oil from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean.[1] In 1980s in average twenty supertankers, each with a capacity of a million barrels of crude oil, arrived each month at Puerto Armuelles from Valdez in Alaska, for transportation to the Caribbean Sea.[2] Between 1982 and 1996 the pipeline transported 2.7 billion barrels of Alaskan oil to the U.S. Gulf Coast ports. After declining Alaskan oil shipments, the pipeline was closed in 1996. In November 2003, the Trans-Panama pipeline was re-opened for transportation of Ecuadorian crude oil to U.S. Gulf ports.[3]
