The Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez warned that a US invasion on Greenland will “legitimise” Vladimir Putin’s full-scale war on Ukraine.
Sánchez warned that if there is a military invasion on the Arctic island that this will be a “death sentence for NATO.”
In 2017 the US President revealed his desire to want Greenland, Donald Trump said at the time he would pay $600 million a year for life to use the country.
When Trump returned back to power in 2025 he then raised the question of acquiring Greenland, then at the start of 2026 he doubled down and has said that he “want it now.”
The Spanish Prime Minister warned, “If we focus on Greenland, I have to say that a US invasion of this territory would make Vladimir Putin the happiest man in the world.
“Why?
“Because it would legitimize his attempt to invade Ukraine. If the United States uses force, it would be a death sentence for NATO. Putin would be doubly pleased.”

Landry said he is planning to travel to Greenland in March and made it clear that Donald Trump “is serious” about having the island.
Speaking to Fox News on Friday, “I do believe that there’s a deal that should and will be made once this plays out.”
He added, “The president is serious. I think he’s laid the markers down.
“He’s told Denmark what he’s looking for, and now it’s a matter of having secretary [of state, Marco] Rubio and vice-president JD Vance make a deal.”
On Saturday evening the US President threatened an increase of 25% in June if by that month America has not take control of the country.
Trump wrote on his Truth Social, “These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable.
Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken so that this potentially perilous situation end quickly, and without question.
Trump added, “Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America.
On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland.”
The US President insists now is the “time for Denmark to give back,” he warned, “China and Russia want Greenland, and there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it.”
