In a revealing interview, former President Donald Trump has suggested that NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg was behind the efforts to annex Greenland, a plan that was ultimately rejected by Denmark. Trump’s comments add a new layer of complexity to the diplomatic saga surrounding the acquisition attempt.

“It wasn’t just my idea,” Trump remarked, implying that Stoltenberg and other NATO officials might have quietly endorsed the concept of acquiring Greenland as part of a larger strategic objective for the U.S. and NATO in the Arctic. According to Trump, Stoltenberg’s concerns about Russia’s growing presence in the region made him a silent advocate for the proposal.

While Stoltenberg has refrained from commenting directly on the idea of Greenland’s annexation, Trump’s suggestion raises the question of whether NATO’s leadership was quietly supportive of U.S. efforts to expand its influence in the Arctic. The region’s geopolitical significance has grown in recent years, and NATO members have repeatedly voiced concerns over Russia’s military activity in the area.
