## Transcript

My relationship with NATO because Greenland doesn't help Denmark. Denmark doesn't spend money to really help Greenland. But it's an important part for the United States. And it's surrounded by China ships and Russian ships. And that's not going to happen. The ships is it's not going to happen. It was Greenland that in my. And it continues to be. That should be controlled by the United States, not by Denmark. And when they wouldn't go along with it, and with all the money we spend to help them with Russia, and we don't have to spend any money. We could remove all of our soldiers out of Europe because, as you probably noticed, Europe's a very different place than it was 20 years ago.

A lot different, much different. It's a much different. And they've got to be careful with immigration and energy. If they're not careful with those two things, you're not going to have a Europe anymore.
