US Envoy Denies Trump Wanted To Invade Greenland, Calls Him Unreliable Speaker
U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Andrew Puzder stated that the American president’s discussions regarding Greenland’s annexation were misunderstood and should not have been interpreted as threats to territorial integrity or an intention to invade. Puzder explained that President Trump’s repeated suggestions of annexing Greenland, even without excluding military force, were primarily intended to highlight the island’s strategic significance. Attendees at the Brussels Economic Security Forum were advised by Puzder to “focus on the coffee and not on the froth” when considering these remarks.
