European leaders expressed their confusion and pushed back Wednesday against President-elect Donald Trump's refusal to rule out using military force to take over Greenland. His remarks came in a media conference as his son Donald Trump Jr. visited Greenland's capital, Nuuk. That said, “the simple fact is that Europe depends on the U.S. for the foreseeable future and it will have to live with Trump either way,” he added.

Carlos Barria | ReutersU.S. President-elect Donald Trump's ongoing pursuit of Greenland may have raised the hackles of Denmark, which retains sovereignty over the Arctic island, but his territorial ambitions seem to be gaining traction in an unlikely quarter: Russia. On Tuesday, Trump doubled-down on those comments and said he would not rule out using force to take Greenland, as well as the Panama Canal. Other pro-Kremlin pundits on the panel said Trump's ambitions validated Russia's decision to launch its own "special military operation" against Ukraine. That sentiment was reiterated by Greenland following Trump's comments in December, with Prime Minister Mute Egede saying: "We are not for sale and we will not be for sale" and that "Greenland belongs to the people of Greenland." Hours after Trump's comments in December, Copenhagen announced it would increase defense spending on Greenland to give it a "stronger presence in the Arctic."
