In recent months, US President Donald Trump has repeatedly spoken of wanting to take control of Greenland, which is largely autonomous but part of the Kingdom of Denmark. He has also not ruled out the use of the military. In the course of the controversy, US Vice President J.D. Vance traveled to the American military base Pituffik in northern Greenland at the end of March. Greenland and Denmark have clearly rejected Trump's demands. They received support from Germany, France and other EU states.
