White House: 'All Options on the Table' for Greenland, But Diplomacy First

The White House has confirmed that President Trump is considering various options regarding Greenland, including the potential purchase of the territory. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt stated that the first priority is diplomacy and preventing aggression from Russia and China in the Arctic.

The European Union, through the President of the European Council Antonio Costa, assured that it will support Greenland and Denmark and will not tolerate violations of international law.
