President Trump speaks with reporters on Air Force One on Sunday while returning to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland. And Denmark risks U.S. intervention, as well, because “we need Greenland,” President Trump said. At a Security Council meeting Monday at the United Nations in New York — called by Colombia, a long-standing and major non-North Atlantic Treaty Oranization ally to the United States — Trump’s moves were widely condemned. “If the United States decides to militarily attack another NATO country, then everything would stop,” Denmark’s prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, told local press. It also caused unease among some Trump supporters, who remembered his pledge to get the United States out of “endless” military conflicts for good.
