The race features around 37 mashers and 444 dogs, and Vance’s office offers what it calls “an incredible display of speed, skill and teamwork.” The statement said Vance and the delegation were “thrilled to witness this monumental race and celebrate Greenland’s culture and unity.”
During this week’s trip, Greenland and Danish media outlets reported that Vance will be accompanied by Trump’s national security adviser Mike Waltz. The White House and the National Security Council did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Trump had been thinking about buying the world’s largest island during his first term as he claimed that NATO ally Copenhagen was not on sale.
Since returning to the White House, Trump has said he has repeatedly said that the US will come to control Greenland, but he argues that he supports the idea of strategic national security reasons rather than turning to American expansionism.
“I think we’ll get that,” Trump said of Greenland shortly after he began his second term on January 20th. The US already has military bases for Greenland and the president’s son,Donald Trump Jr.,Visited in January.
