  • This is not a joke," Rubio said "The Megyn Kelly Show" on SiriusXM. "This is in our national interest and it needs to be solved."

The article from Just The News discusses Senator Marco Rubio's perspective on former President Donald Trump's interest in acquiring Greenland from Denmark. Rubio emphasized that Trump's proposal was not merely a jest but a serious strategic consideration. He highlighted the geopolitical importance of Greenland, noting its strategic location and the presence of a U.S. military base there. Rubio suggested that while the idea might seem unusual, it reflects a broader strategic interest in the Arctic region, where countries like Russia and China are also increasing their activities. He also mentioned that the U.S. has a history of such territorial acquisitions, referencing the purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867, which was initially met with skepticism but later proved to be of significant strategic value.
