Trump’s calls to seize Greenland ignite fresh criticism from Republican party
AI Summary
Donald Trump's renewed interest in the U.S. acquiring Greenland has drawn criticism from within the Republican party. Senators Thom Tillis and Lisa Murkowski, who recently visited Denmark to discuss Greenland, have voiced concerns about Trump's proposed tariffs on European countries, including Denmark, if the U.S. is not allowed to purchase the territory. They argue the tariffs are punitive, harm U.S. alliances, and benefit adversaries like Russia and China by dividing NATO. Former Vice President Mike Pence also expressed concern that Trump's stance threatens the U.S. relationship with Denmark and other NATO allies. Republican House member Michael McCaul echoed these concerns. The Republicans are worried about the economic and diplomatic consequences of Trump's approach.
