The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman urged caution over President Donald Trump’s announcement that he has a “framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland,” which he has repeatedly said he wants to seize for the U.S.
She warned that key questions remain unanswered and tensions with European leaders are far from resolved.
Haberman, appearing on CNN, told anchor Anderson Cooper that it’s still unclear what Trump’s supposed agreement actually contains and whether it will add any new benefits to the existing U.S. agreements with Greenland, dating back to 1951, which allow military installations on the island.
“There’s a lot left unsaid. The president didn’t answer this,” Haberman noted.
“As of now, based on what they’re talking about, it looks as if they’re talking about something that is already in existence,” she added.
