“You’ll Find Out”: Trump Teases Takeover of Greenland

HeadlineJan 21, 2026

Ahead of his speech at Davos later today, President Trump teased how far he would be willing to go to acquire Greenland, telling reporters Tuesday, “You’ll find out.” Amid tensions with the U.S., Denmark has sent additional troops and military equipment to Greenland. Meanwhile, in the U.S., lawmakers from both parties promised to bring legislation to block President Trump’s tariffs against eight European countries, including Denmark, the U.K., Germany and France. Republican Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina said, “This response to our own allies for sending a small number of troops to Greenland for training is bad for America, bad for American businesses, and bad for America’s allies.” It comes as President Trump posted an AI-generated image on Truth Social Tuesday depicting him seated in the Oval Office surrounded by European leaders, all gazing at a map that showed the territories of Greenland, Venezuela and Canada as part of the United States. Meanwhile, Canada announced a trade deal with China, agreeing to cut its 100% tariff on Chinese electric cars. On Tuesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney received a standing ovation at Davos after a speech in which he declared that the U.S.-led international order was breaking down.

Prime Minister Mark Carney: “Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition. Over the past two decades, a series of crises in finance, health, energy and geopolitics have laid bare the risks of extreme global integration. But more recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as weapons.”
