Trump reiterates he wants to buy Greenland for US security

Donald Trump hinted he still wants to buy Greenland, a self-ruling territory of Denmark, saying that U.S. ownership and control of the island is an "absolute necessity" for national security.

The U.S. President-elect reopened a debate from 2019, when he offered to buy what is the world's biggest island, a proposal that was quickly rebuffed by Denmark at the time.
