GOP senators and House members view the prospect of the United States taking over Greenland as particularly outlandish.

The idea of resuming direct U.S. control over the Panama Canal also seems unlikely, but some GOP lawmakers say the U.N. has a national security interest in protecting the canal’s neutrality.

Sen. Chris Coons : “I find it hard to take his comments on threatening to try and reclaim the Panama Canal and try and acquire Greenland seriously seriously” Greenland Prime Minister Múte Egede : Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale. We must not lose our long struggle for freedom,” he said.
