News Xplained | Why Trump is obsessed with Greenland and what's his next move?

Why is Donald Trump obsessed with Greenland? 

Greenland, the world's largest island, almost entirely frozen, has suddenly become a geopolitical hotspot.

Greenland is a former Danish colony and today an autonomous territory under the Kingdom of Denmark. It's massive, about 836,000 square miles, and for most of modern history, it's barely been noticed in global politics.

What are Trump's next moves regarding Greenland, and what does it mean for NATO and the EU?

In this episode of News Xplained, we'll find the answers.
