PALM BEACH, Florida, Dec 22 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said the United States needs to have Greenland, not for critical minerals but for national security.
Trump named Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry on Sunday as his special envoy to Greenland, drawing renewed criticism from Denmark and Greenland over Washington's interest in the mineral-rich Arctic island.
