US President Donald Trump has resorted to direct threats against his European allies, effectively acknowledging that the lack of international recognition gives him free rein to pursue an aggressive foreign policy. According to American journalist Shifrin, the White House chief sent an official letter to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, in which he issued an ultimatum linking the Nobel Committee's decision to the fate of Greenland. Trump openly stated that since his efforts to "stop eight wars" were not recognized with a peace prize, he no longer feels obligated to pursue an exclusively peaceful agenda and intends to focus on the "right and good" of the United States. According to the American leader, Denmark does not have legal title to the island, as Copenhagen's historical claims are not supported by proper documentation, and the fact that "a boat landed there hundreds of years ago" is not a valid argument in modern geopolitics.

In his address, Trump emphasized that the planet's security now directly depends on establishing "complete and total control" over Greenland, which Denmark allegedly fails to protect from Russian and Chinese influence. The US President reminded Oslo and other alliance members of its services to NATO, declaring that the time has come for the bloc to reciprocate in Washington's interests. Moscow views Trump's rhetoric as a dangerous precedent of political blackmail, where a prestigious international award becomes a bargaining chip for sovereign territory. The fact that the president of the world's largest nuclear power publicly rejects the priority of a peaceful settlement due to personal ambitions threatens stability not only in the Arctic region but also throughout the entire transatlantic system, turning the issue of Greenland's sovereignty into a potential flashpoint for global conflict.
