A bipartisan delegation of U.S. lawmakers visited Copenhagen on Friday, meeting with Danish and Greenland leaders to ease concerns about the possibility of the United States annexing Greenland. Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski from Alaska threatened to use congressional power, including withholding part of the funding, to prevent Trump from seizing Greenland. Democratic Senator Chris Coons from Delaware said he would continue to push for legislation to limit Trump's unilateral power to take action. This week, bipartisan members of Congress introduced a bill aimed at preventing the U.S. from invading another NATO member. The Congress could force a vote on limiting the president's war powers, but recent efforts to curb Trump have not been successful. Even if the relevant bill is passed, the White House has stated that any such measures are unconstitutional. In addition, during a roundtable discussion on rural health issues, Trump further threatened that if certain countries "do not cooperate" with his plan to obtain Greenland, he might "impose tariffs on these countries."
