Trump Open to Military Action Against Greenland & Panama
Trump won’t rule out military action against Greenland and Panama.
A reporter asked if Trump would rule out “military or economic coercion” to put the US in charge of Greenland and Panama.
He said, “No, I can’t assure you on either of those two. But, I can say this, we need them for economic security. The Panama Canal was built for our military. I’m not going to commit to that now … it might be that you’ll have to do something,” Trump continued.
He added: “The Panama Canal is vital to our country. It’s being operated by China, China, and we gave the Panama Canal to Panama. We didn’t give it to China, and they’ve abused it.”
