Guaranteed human. What prompted you to take military off the table for Greenland? We'll all see what happens. The military's not on the table. I don't think it'll be necessary. I really don't. I think people are going to use better judgment. They'll use their best judgment, and I don't think that will not be necessary.

You're listening to the 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
Unknown 0:27
Good Thursday morning. Nice to have you with us on the 47 Morning Update. And we've got one big story. Donald Trump and Davos doing exactly what the media said was impossible. Get a deal done over Greenland. They said he was going to start World War III. He was going to invade, killing innocent people, and that the sanctions were going to destroy the economy. Well, guess what? The sanctions are off the table. A deal has been done that the president says will be for forever. So will they correct the record? We've got all of what they had to say, and we called them out. It's the 47 Morning Update, and it starts right now. Story number one. President Donald Trump has announced there is a deal. Yes, the Democratic Party and the media claiming that Donald Trump was going to invade Greenland, go to war and just start killing innocent people.
Unknown 1:19
Yeah, they were lying to you. It was not actually on the table. And this is exactly what they do every time they have a chance. So what actually happened?

How does the deal aim to enhance Arctic security and counter adversaries?

Unknown 1:29
Well, the framework for a future Greenland-Arctic deal has been reached, something Democrats and the media also said was not going to happen this week. President Trump announced that after a very, quote-unquote, productive discussion with The U.S. and NATO allies have agreed on a framework for a future deal related to Greenland and the broader Arctic region. Trump described this framework as something that could be a great one for the United States of America and all NATO nations if it is successfully finalized. The president talking about this deal with CNBC had this to say.
Donald Trump 2:10
Well, we have a concept of a deal. I think it's going to be a very good deal for the United States, also for them. And we're going to work together on something having to do with the Arctic as a whole, but also Greenland. And it has to do with the security, great security, strong security and other things.
Unknown 2:28
the market 600 points, getting back a lot of some of the nervousness we had in the last couple of days. The tariffs are off, nothing happens on February 1st?
Donald Trump 2:37
No, we took that off because it looks like we have pretty much a concept of a deal. A deal of ownership, a deal Well, it's a little bit complex, but we'll explain it down the line. But the Secretary General of NATO and I and some other people were talking, and it's the kind of a deal that I wanted to be able to make.
Unknown 2:56
Where does Denmark—did they weigh in on what they want, what they would agree to?
Donald Trump 3:01
Well, I assume they did, because he very much represents—he's a strong leader. Mark, you know Mark. Yeah. And I assume he's been speaking to them.
Unknown 3:10
He's been speaking to all of them. Are mineral rights involved? Is ownership involved? Did the Golden Dome sway people? I don't want to say yet. The Golden Dome was very compelling today when you talked about that.
Donald Trump 3:21
Yeah, the Golden Dome. They're going to be involved in the Golden Dome. And they're going to be involved in mineral rights and so are we.

What reasons are given for denying military intentions regarding Greenland?

Unknown 3:29
It's not specific enough to know at this point how long this lasts? Forever. Forever?
Donald Trump 3:38
It'll be forever.
Unknown 3:39
For Greenland at this point? Yeah, forever. That's staggering.
Donald Trump 3:44
That's better than a 99-year deal. This is, what, two hours after? It's better than the Obama deal with the famous Iran nuclear deal with a nine-year deal. No, this is forever.
Unknown 3:57
forever which is exactly what the president united states of america wanted to accomplish why because russia and china were clearly looking at doing the exact same thing they wanted to have the reach to be able to come after the united states of america china had publicly said back in 2009 and again in 2016 very clearly that they wanted to have dominance in the arctic
