That's how it is today. And that's how it will be in the future." In a March 2025 address to a joint session of Congress, Trump declared, “One way or another, we’re going to get it,” signaling a firm stance on taking control of Greenland.
He further stated, “We will keep you safe. We will make you rich, and together we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before.”.
