Trump claims Greenland, announces oil exploration, vows to shoot down drones and missiles from island

President Trump escalates rhetoric on Greenland, calling it 'ours' and announcing oil, gas, and mineral exploration, while vowing to defend the island from any future attack by routinely shooting down drones and missiles. This marks a significant escalation in US territorial claims over Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark, and could strain US-Denmark relations and Arctic geopolitics. The statement is unilateral and lacks legal basis, but signals potential US military posture changes in the Arctic.
