President Donald Trump has doubled down on his Greenland ambitions, declaring there is “no going back” as he shared leaked text messages and AI-generated mock-ups to bolster his case.
At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Trump unveiled digital renderings of Greenland under U.S. control, alongside private communications that appeared to show European leaders resisting his plans. He argued that Greenland’s strategic Arctic location and mineral wealth make it indispensable for America’s future security and prosperity.
The move has sparked outrage in Europe, with EU officials warning of trade retaliation if Washington continues to pressure Denmark. Analysts say Trump’s use of AI imagery marks a new frontier in political messaging, blending technology with geopolitics to shape public perception.

Critics accuse Trump of undermining diplomatic norms and escalating tensions with allies, while supporters hail his boldness in pursuing what they see as a historic opportunity. The controversy underscores how Greenland has become a flashpoint in transatlantic relations, intertwining questions of sovereignty, trade, and technological influence.
