Amid ongoing geopolitical tensions, a new wave of speculation has emerged regarding former U.S. President Donald Trump's previous statements about buying Greenland.

President-elect Donald Trump’s interest in buying Greenland mirrors the U.S. acquisition of Alaska in 1867 for $7.2 million. While the Alaska deal faced criticism, it proved successful after the Klondike Gold Strike. Trump’s proposal would require negotiations with Denmark and compensation for Greenland’s 57,000 residents. The last U.S. territory purchase was in 1917 with the Danish West Indies, and acquiring Greenland would likely involve economic incentives or treaties.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shared a powerful video on X showing Canadian firefighting planes battling the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. The video, captioned "Neighbours helping neighbors," highlights the collaboration between Canadian and American efforts to combat the ongoing crisis. Quebec’s CL-415 planes and Coulson Aviation’s helicopters, including their Chinook fleet, are actively involved in the firefighting operations. The fires have forced the evacuation of 70,000 residents and caused widespread destruction. The video comes amid renewed attention to former President Donald Trump’s controversial proposal to make Canada the 51st US state, adding political tension to the international collaboration.

In a bold move, Keith Kellogg, an incoming aide to President Donald Trump, has revealed an ambitious plan to end the Russia-Ukraine war within 100 days of Trump's inauguration. Kellogg emphasized Trump's goal of restarting direct negotiations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. While Trump has vowed to protect Ukraine’s sovereignty, he aims to mediate a resolution that could involve freezing current frontlines as part of the peace negotiations. The plan seeks to resolve the long-running conflict swiftly, but questions remain: Will both Putin and Zelensky accept Trump's terms for peace?
