Trump says “we have to have” Greenland, ahead of Vance trip

US President Donald Trump ramped up his claims to Greenland Wednesday, saying ahead of a controversial visit by Vice President JD Vance that the United States needed the Danish island for international security.

"We need Greenland for international safety and security. We need it. We have to have it," Trump told podcaster Vince Coglianese. "I hate to put it that way, but we're going to have to have it."
