Greenland is no laughing matter for Europe
Christa Case Bryant
Andr茅 Gattolin, a former member of Parliament in France, met with disregard for Greenland when he started writing papers about its strategic importance more than a decade ago. 鈥淓verybody told me I was ridiculous,鈥� he says.
Greenland is no laughing matter for Europe today, as President Donald Trump ramps up talk about taking control of the Danish territory, which sits in the increasingly important Arctic region and is rich with mineral reserves. We鈥檝e got that story for you right after our briefs, as well as pieces on Iran and Venezuela鈥檚 oil.
