Trump has insisted that the U.S. Should control Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark. He said that anything less than the Arctic island being in U.s. Hands would be “unacceptable” Trump had not previously mentioned using tariffs to force the issue. European leaders have insisted it is only for Denmark to decide on matters concerning the territory. Lisa Murkowski says Greenland needs to be viewed as our ally, not as an asset. The tone contrasts with that emanating from the White House. Trump has sought to justify his calls for a U.S. Takeover.
