Senator Gallego Rejects Trump’s Greenland Proposal Citing Security and Diplomatic Risks
Senator Gallego warns the proposal could damage U.S. ties with NATO and allies while offering no real security benefits, calling it an economic risk and diplomatic threat.
- On Thursday, Sen. Ruben Gallego publicly shot down President Donald Trump's push to take Greenland, delivering a pointed rebuke on MS NOW and warning it would inflict severe economic harm.
- Trump has recently argued control of Greenland is a "national security" issue, but Gallego said `This has nothing to do with actual security concerns` and noted Denmark already allows U.S. military access.
- Gallego criticized Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for green-lighting the Greenland plan without grasping its repercussions, and noted the Danish foreign minister publicly rebutted Trump's claims.
- Gallego warned that such a move would fracture NATO and damage U.S. national security, as allies and international investors would see the U.S. as untrustworthy, prompting economic decline.
- Despite Danish offers of expanded U.S. military bases and mineral access, Trump’s persistence since his first term keeps the Greenland dispute unresolved.
