The president has made his view clear, and we have a different position.
They leave empty-handed.
You have NATO allies of Denmark, France, and the United Kingdom pledging to send small numbers of troops to Greenland as a show of solidarity.
Things are really ratcheting up, and suddenly this is a genuine full-blown crisis.
And at that point, President Trump
re-enters the fray very directly and says to Europe... A new threat from President Trump and the standoff over Greenland.
If you're not willing to back off,
I will reopen the trade deals that I made with each of your countries and with the European Union and slap new tariffs on top of the existing tariffs.
And so what had been a diplomatic and geopolitical crisis now is also a full-blown economic crisis.
Well, if the hope of the people waiting in that room was to be reassured, I think that President Trump let them down quickly and let them down pretty hard.
This was Trump at his most swaggering, his most menacing, really delivering in perhaps the purest form we've seen a message that he's been articulating for months, that this is a world in which the strong survive and the weak have to learn how to deal with it.
He said he wants Greenland.
He wants the United States to take ownership and control of Greenland.
But notably, he also took military action off the table.
So he came in and at one level he said, look, I'm not going to use force to take over this huge hunk of ice in the North Atlantic.
But I want to have immediate negotiations and I want you Europeans to be compliant.
If we can do a deal, I'll be most appreciative.
Or you can say no.
Or you can say no, and we will remember.
So it was a deeply unsettling and menacing message delivered with Trump's trademark mix of contempt and vitriol.
