The US president has escalated his rhetoric on Greenland in recent days, threatening several European countries with punitive tariffs until the United States buys the island.
Now he is repeating his claims that Russia poses a military threat to the island.
"NATO has been telling Denmark for 20 years that 'You must remove the Russian threat from Greenland.' Unfortunately, Denmark has not been able to do anything about it. Now is the time, and it will be done," Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday night, local time in Sweden.
Trump has previously claimed that the waters around Greenland are full of Russian and Chinese ships, a claim refuted by researchers the Danish newspaper Politiken spoke to.
