Trump's Greenland Push, Caribbean Concerns, and Musk's Role

Greenland faces rising anxiety over US interest in its territory, highlighted by visits from US officials after Trump reiterated his desire to annex the island. Greenlanders fear this could impede their path to independence from Denmark. Trump sees Greenland as vital for US national security, particularly for Arctic access and its strategic military base. Meanwhile, in the Caribbean, US Secretary of State Rubio's visit to Jamaica, Guyana, and Suriname aims to advance US foreign policy, focusing on immigration, crime, and Haiti's challenges. Concerns exist that Rubio will pressure CARICOM states regarding their relationships with Cuba and Venezuela. Domestically, Elon Musk, acting as a cost-cutter for Trump, was praised at a cabinet meeting. Officials noted significant contract cuts, with Trump lauding Musk as a patriot despite protests against him.
