According to White House insiders,\u00a0President Trump\u00a0planned on cutting up the agreement that firmly established the U.S.-Canada border. The insiders alleged the president was considering the move during the frantic\u00a0months that Trump considered\u00a0making it the 51st state.<\/p>\n<p>Trump began flirting with the idea of annexing Canada in late 2024, referring to then-Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as the &#8220;governor&#8221; and even joking that he would use &#8220;economic force&#8221; to achieve his ends. Things got serious when, after being replaced by Mark Carney, Trump began\u00a0phoning the prime minister, issuing serious threats.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ReadMore_readmore-container__D0vBC\"><span class=\"ReadMore_readmore-prefix__xS44r __className_9aada9\" data-testid=\"readmore\">READ MORE:\u00a0<span class=\"ReadMore_readmore-link__eF9pN\">Donald Trump branded &#8216;master&#8217; of &#8216;magnifying&#8217; personal points of pain<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ReadMore_readmore-container__D0vBC\"><span class=\"ReadMore_readmore-prefix__xS44r __className_9aada9\" data-testid=\"readmore\">READ MORE:\u00a0<span class=\"ReadMore_readmore-link__eF9pN\">Donald Trump&#8217;s power grew over Iran war despite anger brewing at home, says author<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">It was alleged in one call that Trump had allegedly threatened to tear up the Boundary Convention, which was signed in 1908 by both the U.S. and U.K., which handled Canada&#8217;s foreign interests. Trump reportedly told Trudeau that he didn&#8217;t care for the treaty&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">&#8220;I tear that up, and your whole country unravels,&#8221; Trump allegedly said.

The Daily Beast reported that even if the U.S. attempted to withdraw from the agreement, the border would still exist as established in earlier treaties, including the 1818 and 1846 agreements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">However, the act could trigger a diplomatic crisis as tensions between the U.S. and its northern neighbor are still simmering.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said her country was prepared to defend its territory and backed Greenland&#8217;s right to decide its own future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">She said: &#8220;We are ready to defend every inch of NATO, including our own territory.&#8221; Frederiksen added, &#8220;We hope that all, including all allies, will respect the Greenland people&#8217;s right to self-determination. Greenland is, of course, not for sale.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">Trump doubled down on his position, saying Greenland was &#8220;very important for the United States&#8221; but &#8220;not important for Denmark&#8221;. The U.S. president&#8217;s renewed comments threatened to overshadow a gathering intended to demonstrate unity among Nato allies, with leaders instead facing fresh questions over his ambitions for the Danish territory.<\/p>\n<div class=\"BoxStyles_box-container__Qk3WH BoxStyles_commercial__Wo6Z4\" data-testid=\"commercial-6\" data-position=\"8\">\n<div class=\"sc-8cd46d9c-0 hNSrwU\" data-tmdatatrack=\"non-content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"commercial\" data-tmdatatrack-index=\"6\" data-tmdatatrack-id=\"placeholder\"><span aria-live=\"polite\" aria-busy=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">Iceland\u2019s Prime Minister, Kristrun Frostadottir, said Greenland \u201cbelongs to the people of Greenland\u201d, and called for unity in the face of Russia, which she called \u201cthe biggest threat\u201d. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte sought to shift the focus back to the alliance, insisting the United States remained fully committed to NATO despite the renewed tensions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">The summit had been expected to center on defense spending and support for Ukraine, but Trump&#8217;s latest remarks once again put Greenland at the heart of the discussions.\u00a0Greenland is the world&#8217;s largest island and a self-governing territory within the Kingdom of Denmark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" data-tmdatatrack-visible=\"true\">While it manages most of its domestic affairs, Denmark remains responsible for its foreign and security policy. Trump has long argued that the United States carries more than its fair share of NATO&#8217;s defense burden and has repeatedly called on European allies to increase their military spending.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Insiders within the second Trump Administration revealed that President Donald Trump allegedly planned to nix an almost 120-year-old agreement between the U.S. and Canada.
