Trump’s obsession with Greenland explained

At this week's NATO summit in Turkey, Donald Trump was once again talking about wanting to take control of Greenland.

So why does the US President keep talking about the country, could the US really try to take it, and what and what does it all mean for Australia?

In this bonus episode of The Briefing, we revisit Tara Cassidy's chat with defence and security expert, Jennifer Parker, who explains why Greenland has become such a fixation for the US president, and why this isn’t as unprecedented as it might sound. Jen explains the strategic value of the Arctic, the role of NATO and Denmark, and why Trump’s rhetoric is alarming key allies.
