Dem Rep: Trump Wants These Three Countries After Greenland

Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton warned that President Donald Trump could target three countries for “take over” as he ramps up calls for the U.S. to control Greenland as a matter of “international security.”

During an appearance on CNN Newsroom, the Massachusetts congressman agreed that there is a national security argument to be made about Greenland’s proximity to Russia’s military “bases up there.” However, Moulton said America should be working with the autonomous territory of Denmark as an ally, adding that Trump’s “dumb way” of conducting foreign is putting “our national security at risk.”

“The way America has addressed serious national security concerns for decades is to enlist our allies’ help,” said Moulton. “We don’t have the forces to put everywhere around the globe.”
