Full story

Vice President JD Vance will join his wife, Usha Vance, on a weekend trip to Greenland.

JD and Usha Vance will travel to Greenland on Friday, March 28, which is one day later than initially planned. National Security Adviser Mike Waltz will no longer accompany the second lady on the trip.

“Speaking for President Trump, we want to reinvigorate the security of the people of Greenland because we think it’s important to protecting the security of the entire world,” JD Vance said during his Tuesday, March 25, announcement.

The visit comes as President Donald Trump has repeatedly talked about annexing Greenland or taking it under American control.

Greenland’s government posted on Facebook Monday night, March 24, that it had “not extended any invitations for any visits, neither private nor local.”

JD Vance will visit the U.S. military base in Greenland, which will erase some questions about protocol.

Greenland is now regarded as a strategic territory and gateway to the Arctic and North Atlantic, attracting interest from China and Russia. Officially, it is a self-governing region of Denmark, the world’s largest island, rich in minerals.

  • Not enough coverage from media outlets in the center to provide a bias comparison.
  • Media outlets on the right presented the visit as a necessary assertion of U.S. interests, using phrases like "last laugh" to portray Vance's actions positively and highlighting Denmark's condemnation of U.S. "pressure."
