Trump sending hospital ship to Greenland ‘to care for the sick’

The US president has taken a swipe at the Danish authorities, claiming many of those unwell are not being treated

US President Donald Trump said he is sending a hospital ship to Greenland, the Danish autonomous territory in the Arctic he has sought to annex.

He announced the plan on Truth Social on Saturday, saying he was working with Jeff Landry, his special envoy to Greenland, whose appointment in December Copenhagen condemned as a diplomatic breach.
