US vice president JD Vance said that he is joining his wife on a trip to Greenland, suggesting in an online video that global security is at stake.
“We’re going to check out how things are going there,” Mr Vance said in a video posted to social media.
“Speaking for President Trump, we want to reinvigorate the security of the people of Greenland because we think it’s important to protecting the security of the entire world.”
