On January 21, US President Donald Trump spoke at the Oval Office about various topics, including immigration, international relations, and Greenland. He expressed support for legal immigration, stating, "I like it," and emphasized the need for people as companies move to the US to avoid tariffs.
Trump discussed the potential normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia, suggesting it might happen in the future. He referred to the Abraham Accords, agreements that normalized Israel's relations with several Arab countries during his first term in 2020. Saudi Arabia has delayed plans to normalize ties with Israel, citing the need for a Palestinian state.
Regarding Greenland, Trump described it as essential for international security due to Russian and Chinese presence in the region. He mentioned that Denmark, which oversees Greenland, might agree to US interests as it is costly for them to maintain. However, Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and Greenlandic Prime Minister Mute Egede have stated that "Greenland is not for sale."
