The 51st state of America? No way

Let&#39;s recall that US President Donald Trump called on the US to take control of that Danish territory.A survey conducted by the Verian agency, and requested by the Danish newspaper &quot;Berlingske&quot;, showed that only six percent of Greenland&#39;s citizens are in favor of joining the US, while nine percent are undecided, &quot;The Guardian&quot; writes.The poll came as Denmark&#39;s prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, said Europe must &quot;stick together&quot; in the face of changing relations with the US, during a tour of Berlin, Paris and Brussels.&quot;I want to make sure that Europe is united, not only in relation to the Kingdom of Denmark, but also more broadly,&quot; Frederiksen said after a meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.Since his re-election, Trump has often reiterated his interest in taking over Greenland, which is controlled by Denmark but has a high degree of autonomy.In a statement on Air Force One on Saturday, Trump said he &quot;thinks he&#39;s going to get it,&quot; claiming that Greenland&#39;s 57,000 citizens &quot;want to be with the United States.&quot;Meanwhile, Trump refused to rule out the possibility of using military force to take over Greenland, which is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, which still controls the island&#39;s foreign policy and defense.Last week, Denmark announced plans to strengthen its sovereignty in the Arctic, including acquiring new ships and drones, to demonstrate its ability to defend Greenland.
