The United States has no current plans to increase its military presence in Greenland, the U.S. embassy in Copenhagen said on Thursday, after President-elect Donald Trump expressed renewed interest in acquiring the vast Arctic island.

Donald Trump says that the U.S. having control over Greenland is imperative for U.S. national security and is not ruling out using military force to take it. Ivory Coast and Senegal have announced that France will withdraw from bases in their territories.
