And I'm John Feiner.
And we're the hosts of The Long Game, a weekly national security podcast.
The episode's out now.
Search for and follow The Long Game wherever you get your podcasts.
So I'm John Henley.
I'm the Guardian's Europe correspondent, and I'm based in Paris.
Well, the context was that the two foreign ministers from Denmark and Greenland had asked for a meeting with Marco Rubio to, as they said, kind of really look the American side in the eye.
and kind of talk some sense about what the situation really was in Greenland and to put their position across.
Essentially, Donald Trump has been saying for several weeks now that the US has to have or take or gain control of Greenland, which is, you know, a huge Arctic island.
It's really strategically located.
It has a lot of kind of very valuable minerals on it.
If we don't take Greenland, Russia or China will.
And I'm not letting that happen.
And Trump has been saying that he absolutely has to have it for kind of national security reasons.
And there's a lot of problems.
with those statements from the Greenlandic and Danish points of view.
And the second problem, obviously, is that Greenland is a largely self-governing territory of the Kingdom of Denmark.
The Kingdom of Denmark is a sovereign country.
It's a member of NATO.
It's a member of the European Union.
