Investing.com — In a recent press conference, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump did not dismiss the possibility of using military or economic measures to address his concerns related to the Panama Canal and Greenland. When questioned about whether he could guarantee not to apply such tactics to gain control of these regions, Trump declined to provide any assurance.
In his response, Trump stated, “I can’t assure you – you’re talking about Panama and Greenland. No, I can’t assure you on either of those two, But I can say this, we need them for economic security.” This statement indicates that the incoming president sees the two regions as vital to the economic security of the United States. However, the specific strategies or actions that may be employed to secure these interests remain unclear.
