Trump pushes for Greenland during Davos speech

·

US President Donald Trump addressed business leaders at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, emphasising his economic achievements and secure borders, while making headlines with his repeated calls to acquire Greenland.

Trump claimed the US “gave Greenland back to Denmark,” a historically inaccurate statement, and said he would not use force but expects the offer to be remembered if denied.

He also announced plans to soon replace Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, criticising Powell’s interest rate policies.

The president’s hour-long speech touched on immigration, US economic growth, and his Greenland ambitions, drawing attention from European leaders and prompting discussions about the Arctic territory.
