(Adnkronos) – “For the purposes of national security and freedom around the world, the United States of America believes that ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity.” US President-elect Donald Trump reiterates on Truth his aspiration, already expressed in 2019, to take possession of the huge autonomous territory that is part of Denmark. The occasion was the announcement of the appointment of Ken Howery as the new US ambassador to the kingdom.
“I am pleased to announce Ken Howery as the United States Ambassador to the Kingdom of Denmark,” Trump wrote on social media. “Ken is a world-renowned entrepreneur, investor and public servant, who served our nation brilliantly during my first term as US Ambassador to Sweden, where he led efforts to increase defense, security and economic cooperation between our countries.”
“As co-founder of PayPal and venture capital fund Founders Fund, Ken has transformed American leadership in innovation and technology into global success stories, and this experience will be invaluable in representing us abroad. For the purposes of national security and freedom across the globe, the United States of America believes that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity. Ken will do a great job representing US interests. Thank you Ken and congratulations!”
