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.
