The letter was reportedly forwarded by the National Security Council staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington.

Several other media outlets, such as RT News and PBS news also reported about Trump's letter.

What Trump's letter to Norwegian PM stated?

As per News Hours reporter's post on X and a copy of the letter shared by RT news, Trump's letter to Jonas linked the former's claims on Greenland to not being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

The purported letter stated:“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.”

"Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a“right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents; it's only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also," The letter read.

'It is time' - Trump tells Greenland

Earlier in a post on TRUTH social media, Trump wrote,“NATO has been telling Denmark, for 20 years, that 'you have to get the Russian threat away from Greenland.'"

“Unfortunately, Denmark has been unable to do anything about it. Now it is time, and it will be done!!!,” Trump wrote.

Last week, President Trump was also asked if he would pull out of NATO if it didn't help him acquire Greenland. According to AFP, Trump appeared to question his country's core role in NATO over Greenland, while adding that Washington was "talking to" the military alliance about the issue.

He had warned: "We're going to see. NATO has been dealing with us on Greenland; we need Greenland for national security very badly."

"If we don't have it, we have a very big hole in terms of national security, especially in terms of the Golden Dome," Trump was heard saying.
