Trump's Greenland Hospital Ship Proposal Rejected by Denmark
What Happened On social media, President Trump announced plans to send the USNS Mercy hospital ship to Greenland, claiming that people there were “not being taken care of” medically. The proposal came without prior diplomatic consultation with either Greenland’s autonomous government or Denmark, which handles Greenland’s foreign affairs. Both Greenland and Denmark swiftly rejected the offer. Greenland’s government emphasized that it has adequate healthcare infrastructure and prefers proper diplomatic channels over social media announcements.
