From Venezuela to Greenland, Trump is using US power to rewrite the rules
AI Summary
The United States, under the Trump administration, has been taking actions in Venezuela, Greenland, and elsewhere that suggest a strategy of asserting its influence and rewriting international rules. Actions in Venezuela, initially framed as law enforcement against narcoterrorism, shifted to safeguarding oil revenues and preventing Chinese and Russian influence in the region. The administration invoked the Monroe Doctrine to justify its actions in the Western Hemisphere. A renewed focus on Greenland stems from its strategic importance for missile defense and its wealth of critical minerals. These actions, including tariff threats, signal a US intent to police the Western Hemisphere and deter rivals in the Arctic and Caribbean, securing strategic footholds in energy and infrastructure sectors.
