- Greenland's prime minister responded to Trump's offer of a US hospital boat by stating Greenland provides free healthcare for all citizens, unlike the US.
- Trump had announced on social media that he would send a hospital boat to Greenland, claiming many people there were sick and not receiving care.
- Greenland's PM emphasized the importance of direct discussions rather than social media announcements for cooperation with the US.
- Trump has previously expressed interest in Greenland but conceded he would not take it by force after international pushback.
- The context of Trump's post remains unclear, though it followed a medical evacuation from a US submarine near Nuuk.
- Details of Trump's proposed 'framework for a future deal' with Greenland remain vague, with no clear progress reported.
