Trump claims he needs to "take over" the Danish autonomous territory for what he calls a "matter of national security".

1.22" - He's now expanded his threats.

Trump's refusal to rule out taking it by military force has led to a diplomatic scramble... and a renewed focus on the island's security from its NATO allies. 

An island that is staunchly trying to protect itself.
