Francesca, as you mentioned, Trump also took aim at NATO in the speech, which Denmark and U.S.

are both founding members of.

From his first term, we know that Trump was never happy with what NATO members were spending on defense.

Because of Greenland's location close to the U.S., but also close to the Nordic countries, its defense is key to NATO security.

What did he say there and how did Denmark respond?
