Delivering a much-awaited speech at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland’s Davos as the world braced for another dose of ‘America First’ rhetoric and a doubling down on Greenland, US President Donald Trump did not disappoint on Wednesday.
Terming Greenland "our territory", Trump said the US wanted the country, but would not use force to acquire it. At the same time, he issued a veiled threat: "You can say yes, and we will be very appreciative. Or you can say no, and we will remember."
Beginning the address with a jibe, saying he was happy to be in beautiful Davos to join "so many business leaders, so many friends and a few enemies", it did not take long for Trump to extol the progress in the US under him while criticising Europe, stating unequivocally that it was not heading in the "right direction".
Coming to Greenland, which has driven a rift between the US and the European Union, Trump called the country a "big, beautiful piece of ice". Reiterating that no one other than the US could defend Greenland, he lamented that the country was "stupid" to give it back to Denmark after World War II, only to get ingratitude in return.
