President Trump’s recent message to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store has sent shockwaves throughout Europe and the West, scathingly accusing the country of losing the plot amid America’s increasingly imperialist intentions.
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America,” the president’s text read.
The message was first reported by PBS News’ correspondent Nick Schifrin.
President Trump’s opening line takes a blatant swipe at the Norwegian Nobel Committee, which inexplicably gave last year’s prize to Maria Corina Machado, the leader of the Venezuelan political opposition.
In the president’s reported note, he also took a swipe at Denmark, another NATO member, for being incapable of protecting Greenland from Russian or Chinese incursion.
“There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also,” the president said, referring to what he perceived as Denmark and Norway’s inaccurate claims to ownership of the massive, icy island.
He continued, “I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you!”
As reported by LindellTV, President Trump has aggressively turned his attention to taking Greenland for the United States following a successful U.S. military strike on Venezuela that resulted in the successful arrest of Nicolas Maduro.
The United States has effectively taken control of Venezuela – and its corresponding oil reserves – and postured itself to potentially take action against cartel activity in Mexico and Cuba, expanding its imperialist intentions at a shockingly rapid clip.
Over the weekend, President Trump also took another bold step to curb NATO opposition to the U.S.’s intentions to acquire Greenland by announcing that he would impose tariffs on all countries that sent contingencies of troops to the island.
“This is a very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet. These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable,” he warned on Truth Social.
The president added, “Only the United States of America, under PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, can play in this game, and very successfully, at that!”
The governments of Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom issued a joint statement on Sunday further responding to President Trump’s steely response to the deployment of foreign troops to Greenland, claiming that such action “poses no threat to anyone”:
“As members of NATO, we are committed to strengthening Arctic security as a shared transatlantic interest. The pre-coordinated Danish exercise ‘Arctic Endurance’ conducted with Allies, responds to this necessity. It poses no threat to anyone.
We stand in full solidarity with the Kingdom of Denmark and the people of Greenland. Building on the process begun last week, we stand ready to engage in a dialogue based on the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity that we stand firmly behind.
Tariff threats undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral. We will continue to stand united and coordinated in our response. We are committed to upholding our sovereignty.”
