The Trump administration's reckless and immoral rhetoric (and potential action) to take over Greenland is outrageous. Where is the oversight of the U.S. Congress to reign in the violent domestic and international behavior perpetuated by the Trump administration in the last few weeks? If Greenland is as strategic as it seems, we need strong diplomatic relationships that value both the needs of Greenland and its people, as well as the United States. Stop the violence!
