00:00U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio will host a meeting with the
00:07foreign ministers of Denmark and Greenland at the White House on Wednesday. The expected meeting
00:13comes as concerns grow over U.S. President Donald Trump's desire to seize control of the Arctic
00:19island. During a press conference ahead of the meeting, Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen
00:25and Greenland's Prime Minister Jens Frederik Nielsen emphasized Greenland is not for sale.
00:55Trump has repeatedly pushed the issue and has not ruled out using military force to take
01:05the island. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen subsequently warned that a U.S. takeover of
01:10Greenland would mark the end of NATO. When asked to comment on the situation at the Global Europe
01:16Forum at the European Parliament on Tuesday, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said it was
01:21not his role to get involved in discussions between allies. Instead, he redirected the
01:27question to emphasize the necessity to protect the Arctic, which he said involved the entire alliance.
