US Vice President JD Vance Calls for Greenland to Come Under US Control Amid Rising Tensions
JD Vance has declared that the United States must gain control over Greenland to counter the growing threats posed by China and Russia. The US vice president, speaking to troops at Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, sharply criticized Denmark’s handling of the Arctic territory, asserting that it had "not done a good job" in securing the island or investing in its people. Denmark's leadership has failed the people of Greenland, and their bullying tactics won't change that. Investment in Greenland's security is in America's best interest, and it will continue under President Trump. "Our message to Denmark is very simple: you have not done a good job by the people of Greenland. You have underinvested in the people of Greenland and you have underinvested in the security architecture of this incredible, beautiful landmass," Vance said. He made it clear that the US did not hold an issue with the people of Greenland but rather with Denmark’s leadership. "That simply must change," he added. "It is the policy of the United States that that will change." According to Vance, Greenland would be safer under the US "security umbrella" than under Denmark’s protection. He argued that Denmark was failing to shield the territory from "a lot of very aggressive incursions from Russia, from China and other nations." Upon landing in Greenland, Vance, accompanied by his wife, Usha, and senior US officials, emphasized his focus on Arctic security. "As you all know, it’s a big issue and it’s only going to get bigger over the coming decades," he told troops. Braving temperatures of -19C, he joked that it was "cold as shit here." Back in Washington, Donald Trump reiterated his belief that the US must control Greenland. "I think Greenland understands that the United States should own it," he declared at a press conference. "And if Denmark and the EU don’t understand it, we have to explain it to them. We need Greenland. Very importantly, for international security, we have to have Greenland." He insisted that "Chinese and Russian ships [are] all over the place," reinforcing his argument that US control was essential for world peace. Meanwhile, Greenland’s political leaders responded by forming a broad four-party coalition government as a direct rejection of US efforts to claim the island. Four of the territory’s five parties signed an agreement that states on its first page: "Greenland belongs to us." Tensions between the US, Greenland, and Denmark have intensified in recent weeks. The Danish prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, accused the United States of exerting "unacceptable pressure" on Greenland and Denmark, vowing: "It is pressure that we will resist." Trump, however, doubled down on his position, saying, "We need Greenland for national security and international security. So we’ll go as far as we have to go. We need Greenland. And the world needs us to have Greenland, including Denmark. Denmark has to have us have Greenland. And we’ll see what happens. But if we don’t have Greenland, we can’t have great international security." From Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin took note of Trump’s ambitions, stating that "geopolitical competition in the region" was increasing. Speaking at Russia’s Arctic Forum in Murmansk, he remarked, "America’s plans in relation to Greenland are serious. These plans have deep historical roots. And it’s clear that the US will continue to systematically pursue its geo-strategic, military-political, and economic interests in the Arctic." However, he distanced Russia from the issue, saying, "As for Greenland, this is a matter for two specific countries. It has nothing to do with us." With the US pushing aggressively for control of Greenland, tensions in the Arctic are set to rise further, as Greenland and Denmark push back against American ambitions while Russia watches closely.

Using an Agent to renew Australian Passport using an Agent
LOL If you read my reply properly, I said I didn't know much about CM Immigrations process but did say I heard it was onerous. I was commenting on all of your other whinges. I don't believe for 1 minute it took you 5 hours in the bank to update your passport. As for the other stuff you mentioned, it's just so you can have a gripe I guess. -
