Trump SETS 20 Days Deadline for Greenland? Denmark, EU Leader SLAM U.S Takeover Plan After Venezuela

Several European leaders pushed back against U.S. President Donald Trump after renewed calls for the United States to take over Greenland, amid global shock following Washington’s military strike on Venezuela and the reported abduction of its leader.

In a joint statement, leaders including Emmanuel Macron, Friedrich Merz, and Keir Starmer said the mineral-rich Arctic island “belongs to its people,” rejecting outside claims.

00:00By the way, I have to, I will say this about Greenland.

00:05We need Greenland from a national security.

00:08Shockwaves are rippling across Europe tonight as leaders push back hard against what they

00:31call Washington's most dangerous ambition yet.

00:35After U.S. forces seized Venezuela's president in a dramatic military operation, Donald Trump

00:42is now openly floating another red line, U.S. control over Greenland.

00:48Europe is responding with rare unity and unmistakable anger.

00:53Seven European leaders have issued a joint statement rejecting Trump's claims outright.

00:58They say Greenland is not for sale, not for conquest, and not a bargaining chip.

01:05The mineral-rich Arctic island, they stressed, belongs only to its people, and decisions rest

01:11solely with Denmark and Greenland.

01:14Denmark's prime minister escalated the warning even further.

01:18She said any attempt by the United States to seize Greenland would effectively end NATO

01:24as Europe knows it. Her message was blunt. An attack on one NATO country is an attack on all,

01:31even if it comes from Washington. The concern is not theoretical. Trump has refused to rule

01:38out military force and has promised to talk about Greenland in the coming weeks.

01:43Greenland now? Yeah, we're off on Greenland. How did we come up to Greenland?

01:47So, do you expect to take an action against Greenland?

01:50Well, I don't want to talk about Greenland. Let's talk about Venezuela, Russia, Ukraine.

01:56We'll worry about Greenland in about two months. Let's talk about Greenland in 20 days.

02:02On Venezuela, we've talked so much about it. Let's talk about Cuba.

02:04By the way, I have to, I will say this about Greenland. We need Greenland from a national

02:10security situation. It's so strategic. Right now, Greenland is covered with Russian

02:16and Chinese ships all over the place. We need Greenland from the standpoint of national security.

02:24And Denmark is not going to be able to do it, I can tell you.

02:26You know what Denmark did recently to boost up security on Greenland?

02:32They added one more dog sled.

02:35That threat came just one day after U.S. forces abducted Venezuela's leader, a move that deeply

02:42alarmed Arctic allies. Adding fuel to the fire, a senior U.S. political ally was named special

02:49envoy to Greenland, openly backing annexation. Then came a viral image showing Greenland draped

02:56in U.S. flag colors with one word above it, soon.

02:59European officials called it provocative and reckless. Greenland's own prime minister condemned

03:06the imagery as deeply disrespectful. Officials in Nuke fear that Washington now views the Arctic

03:12as a strategic prize, rich in minerals, shipping lanes, and military leverage. For Europe, this is no

03:19longer rhetoric. It's a test of sovereignty. From Caracas to the Arctic Circle, Europe sees a troubling

03:27pattern. A superpower willing to redraw borders, sidestep allies, and use force to get its way.

03:35Tonight, European leaders are drawing their own line and warning that the future of NATO itself may be at stake.
