  • Donald Trump is stoking geopolitical tensions in the Americas with his claims to Canada, Greenland and Panama. Trump is thinking of US interests and previously stated that he almost considered Canada the '51st state of the United States'.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's interest in Greenland, Canada, and Panama, highlighting his unconventional foreign policy approaches. Trump's interest in Greenland stems from its strategic location and potential for resource development, although his proposal to buy the island from Denmark was met with rejection and ridicule. In Canada, Trump's focus has been on renegotiating trade deals like NAFTA, which was replaced by the USMCA, reflecting his "America First" policy. His interest in Panama relates to the Panama Canal, where he has expressed concerns over its management and security, suggesting a desire for greater U.S. control or influence over this critical trade route. These interests reflect Trump's broader strategy of leveraging U.S. economic and military power to secure strategic advantages, often bypassing traditional diplomatic norms.
