Investing.com — At a recent press conference, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump did not rule out using military or economic measures to address his concerns over the Panama Canal and Greenland. When asked if he could guarantee not to use such tactics to take control of these regions, Trump refused to give any assurance.
In his response, Trump said: “I can’t assure you – you’re talking about Panama and Greenland. No, I can’t guarantee anything for those two. But I can say this, we need it to our economic security.” This statement indicates that the incoming president views these two regions as vital to the economic security of the United States. However, the specific strategies or actions that could be employed to secure these interests remain unclear.
