🇺🇸🇬🇧🇬🇱⚡- "President Donald Trump conceded in a weekend phone call with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer that he may have been given “bad information” on the announcement of troop deployments from European countries to Greenland.

Several European NATO countries announced last week that they’re deploying small numbers of military personnel to Greenland to participate in joint exercises with Denmark, drawing ire from Trump. Danish diplomats had briefed the US in advance of the public announcements. A Danish official told CNN that the deployment was not just communicated in advance, but pre-coordinated within existing European and US military structures," - CNN.

🇺🇸🇬🇧⚡- "Shockingly, our “brilliant” NATO Ally, the United Kingdom, is currently planning to give away the Island of Diego Garcia, the site of a vital U.S. Military Base, to Mauritius, and to do so FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER.

There is no doubt that China and Russia have noticed this act of total weakness. These are International Powers who only recognize STRENGTH, which is why the United States of America, under my leadership, is now, after only one year, respected like never before.

The UK giving away extremely important land is an act of GREAT STUPIDITY, and is another in a very long line of National Security reasons why Greenland has to be acquired. Denmark and its European Allies have to DO THE RIGHT THING.

Thank you for your attention to this matter," - President Trump.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇬🇱⚡- "If Western countries want to talk to each other on their own terms - that's their choice, but it's hard to see that discussions about Greenland would call into question the survival of the NATO bloc," - Sergei Lavrov, Russia's Foreign Minister, at his annual press conference.
