‘Make Greenland Great Again Act’: The US bill that could allow Donald Trump to buy the island

Firstpost  

US President-elect Donald Trump’s plan to buy Greenland has now taken a legal turn. This bill is titled the ‘Make Greenland Great Again Act’ If passed, the bill would authorise the President to start negotiations with Denmark on January 20, when Trump officially takes office. On Monday, House Republicans introduced a bill enabling President-elect Donald Trump to initiate negotiations with Denmark to acquire Greenland. The offices of Republican representatives Andy Ogles, who is leading the bill, and Diana Harshbarger told Reuters that it has been named the ‘Make Greenland Great Again Act’. According to a report by Reuters, the draft of the bill states: “Congress hereby authorises the President, beginning at 12:01 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on January 20, 2025, to seek to enter into negotiations with the Kingdom of Denmark to secure the acquisition of Greenland by the United States.” It further reads: “Not later than 5 calendar days after reaching an agreement with the Kingdom of Denmark relating to the acquisition of Greenland by the United States, the President shall transmit to the appropriate congressional committees the agreement, including all related materials and annexes.” Trump has also indicated that under his leadership, the US would not hesitate to employ military and economic pressure to persuade Denmark and Greenland if they decline the option of a buyout.
