Trump is right, NATO chief reacts to US claims on Greenland

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte agreed with US President Donald Trump regarding Greenland, particularly on the issue of defense, Bild reports.

"When it comes to defense in the Arctic, Trump is right. What I think is very good is that the Prime Minister of Denmark immediately began negotiations with President Trump. Essentially, it was about the high relevance of defense in the far north," he said.

According to Rutte, this applies not only to Greenland but also to Iceland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Canada.

"We all need to work together to protect these territories. And Trump is right," emphasized the NATO Secretary General.

Nothing against Denmark. But they cannot adequately secure the waters and airspace around Greenland.

LOL Greenland will be a US territory. I can’t wait until I see Greenland territory at the political conventions.

There is more up there than people know about. It is a very strategic location and very necessary.

Untapped potential like much of the US once was as well as strategic value.

Imagine the “Greenland Rush” that would occur if it became a US state.

This helps a lot, especially with the American public who may not be taking this seriously.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Indeed.
Simply because Russia is taking over all of the Arctic in FULL expansion mode. It has become a direct threat to America.

Rutte is saying anything he can, to try and stay in Trump’s good graces.

NEVER FORGET, globalist Rutte is one of ‘der Führer und Reichskanzler’ K(louse) Schwab’s WEF operatives. Never forget what he did to Dutch farmers! He is just as slimy as Justin(e) True-dolt. After election defeat, he, somehow, slimed himself into a cushy job as head of NATO.

This is one SOB, not to be trusted!

The security point of Greenland is that, while Russia fronts on fully half the Arctic circle, the other half is fronted by Alaska, Canada and Greenland. That’s why Trump is making noises about both Greenland and Canada. The North Pole is the new frontier.
