Bloomberg News is reporting that Mark Carney is considering sending Canadian soldiers to Greenland, in the midst of U.S. President Donald Trump’s continued pressure to acquire the island for U.S. interests. The report made it clear that Canada’s prime minister hasn’t made a decision yet. U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer told Trump on Sunday that the U.S. tariff measure was “wrong.”The plan is to meet in Brussels on Thursday. On Sunday, Carney said Greenland’s future is for Denmark and Greenland to decide, and that he’ll reiterate that message to Trump if they speak about it. Over the weekend, Trump linked his claims on Greenland to not being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, in a letter he sent to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store.
