The Kremlin is monitoring Donald Trump's renewed bid for Greenland following his controversial comments about potentially using military force to claim the Arctic island. Trump asserts that acquiring Greenland aligns with U.S. economic and national interests. Pro-Kremlin figures in Russia view Trump's ambitions as a potential precedent for Russia's expansionist goals in former Soviet territories. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed Russia is closely observing the situation, calling it a matter between the U.S. and Denmark. Denmark has responded by increasing defense spending and emphasizing Greenland's significance.
