A: Hey! Did you see the news about Venezuela and… Greenland?! Crazy, right?

B: No way! What happened? Tell me!

A: Basically, Trump is, like, threatening Venezuela’s acting president. He said she’s going to “pay a big price” if she doesn't do what he wants.

B: Wow! That sounds intense! What about Maduro?

A: They tried to grab him with a military thing! But he got away. Trump said the price for the Venezuelan president will be bigger than what Maduro would face. He thinks Venezuela is a total mess.

B: Seriously? That’s a bold statement. And… Greenland? What’s that about?

A: I know! He also mentioned wanting Greenland! He said it’s surrounded by Russian and Chinese ships.

B: Haha! The Prime Minister of Denmark said it doesn't make any sense. And the Prime Minister of Greenland thinks it's disrespectful!

A: Totally! Apparently, Greenland isn't for sale. It's a bit of a weird situation, huh?

B: Definitely! It's all so complicated. I need more coffee to understand all this!
