President Donald Trump has said the U.S. will revisit its stance on Greenland in the coming weeks.

Asked if he expected to take action on the territory, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday: “Let’s talk about Venezuela, Russia, Ukraine. We’ll worry about Greenland in about two months. Let’s talk about Greenland in 20 days.”

He added: “We need Greenland from a national security situation. It’s so strategic.”

      I’m not sure if he’s smarter than Putin, but I guess if I had to hang out with one of them, it would be Xi.

          Putin isn’t dumb? He underestimated how Europe and Ukraine would handle his invasion, but domestically he’s proven plenty adept at doing the job of kleptocrat.

          Xi was also a nepobaby, for what it’s worth. Putin’s life trajectory involved more good luck at the very least, if not actual competence.

            Nepobaby word really became popular recently, isnt it? Xi has better education, better in science, politics, shows better results economically ecologically. Better country in r and d. People in China live better than in Russia. Putin is just a thug who is lucky to be in right place right time.

              Yeah, that was a conversation with Xi.

              China’s a stronger country, no doubt. Mostly because of people who came before Xi.

            Did he? I’m not by any stretch a Putin supporter, yet I fail to see how he’s not 1) strengthening his support at home, and 2) winning the war of attrition in Ukraine
