Landry thanks for the award, writing on the X platform that it is an honor to take on the volunteer mission alongside his job as governor, and to make Greenland part of the United States.
President Trump has repeatedly said over the past year that he wants to take control of the strategically important and mineral-rich Danish island of Greenland – and has not ruled out using force.
“Jeff understands how crucial Greenland is to our national security and will strongly advance our country’s interests,” the president writes on his social media platform Truth.
Former congressman and police officer Landry is an outspoken Trump loyalist. He is known for his tough stance on criminals and his opposition to abortion, and has signed a law that forces public schools to display the Bible's Ten Commandments.
