The principal contractor for the same would be RTX Corporation (NYSE:RTX).\nMeanwhile, Trump, speaking from his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida on Monday, emphasized the significance of Greenland to U.S. defense interests. He pointed out the presence of Russian and Chinese ships along the coast as a reason for the U.S. to secure the territory.\n\"We need Greenland for national security, not for minerals,\" said Trump. “We have to have it,” he added.\nTrump further stated that Denmark has spent “no money” on Greenland, and they have “no military protection.”\nTrump’s comments come in the wake of Denmark and Greenland’s opposition to the remarks made by the newly appointed special envoy for Greenland, Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry. Landry had stated his intention to make the Arctic territory “a part of the U.S.” Lars Lokke Rasmussen, the Danish Foreign Minister, expressed his objection to the appointment of a special envoy and his statements, calling it “completely unacceptable.”\nSee Also: Trump Media Stock Gains After-Hours As On-Chain Data Shows Company-Linked With President Purchased Bitcoin Worth $40 Million\nTrump’s renewed interest in Greenland has been a subject of debate. In January, it was reported that Denmark had announced a $2 billion Arctic defense upgrade, highlighting the strategic value of the island that hosts America's northernmost military installation and holds vast mineral wealth. This development was seen as a reason for Trump’s call for the acquisition as an “absolute necessity” for national security.\nHowever, despite Trump’s push, a poll conducted in February revealed that nearly 90% of Greenlanders reject the U.S. proposal to acquire their island. This widespread opposition has been echoed by Rasmussen, who stated that “Greenland is Greenland,” firmly rejecting Trump’s suggestion of using military force or tariffs against Denmark to acquire the territory.\nREAD NEXT:\nImage via Shutterstock\nDisclaimer: This content was partially produced with the help of AI tools and was reviewed and published by Benzinga editors.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
