493 | Denmark Confronts Trump Administration over Greenland

Denmark has done something almost unheard of: it hauled in the top U.S. diplomat in Copenhagen to demand answers—after uncovering evidence that people tied directly to Donald Trump have been running secret influence operations in Greenland. The allegation? That these operatives tried to stir up a movement in Greenland—a territory of Denmark—to break away and open the door to U.S. control. Danish officials call it “completely unacceptable,” likening it to planting a fifth column inside an allied nation. Niels Fastrup, who broke the story for the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, joins us. And we hear from Pipaluk Lynge, a Member of Parliament in Greenland.
