A: Hey, did you hear anything crazy in the news today?

B: No! What’s up?

A: So, remember Trump? He really wants Greenland!

B: Seriously? Still? I thought that was old news.

A: Yeah, well, US officials met with people from Greenland and Denmark in Washington.

B: Wow! What did they talk about?

A: Trump says he needs Greenland for, like, US security reasons.

B: That sounds a bit… intense. Denmark isn't having it, though, right?

A: Exactly! They’re saying no way. They called the meeting "constructive" but also said they still disagree.

B: So, are they gonna fight about it?

A: Not exactly fight. They're setting up a special team to try and understand each other better.

B: A working group! Fancy.

A: It gets weirder! Denmark is doing more military exercises in Greenland. Germany is sending people too!

B: Whoa! That’s a big deal. Are other countries getting involved?

A: Totally! France is opening a consulate there, like a mini-embassy.

B: Why would France do that?

A: To show Greenland wants to stay independent. They don’t want to be part of the US, at all.

B: Canada too? Everyone wants a piece!

A: Yep! Canada’s opening a consulate soon as well. It’s all pretty wild, huh?



B: Definitely! Greenland is suddenly very popular.
