Blinken on US taking over Greenland: 'Not going to happen'

The article discusses U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's response to a question about the U.S. potentially taking over Greenland. During a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Blinken humorously dismissed the idea, stating, "I think Greenland is quite happy being Greenland, and we are very happy with our relationship as it is." This statement was in response to a query from Senator Lindsey Graham, who jokingly suggested that the U.S. might consider annexing Greenland, referencing past discussions under the Trump administration about purchasing the island. Blinken emphasized the strong partnership between the U.S. and Greenland, focusing on cooperation in areas like climate change, resource management, and security, rather than any territorial ambitions.
