President Donald Trump’s new Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, confirmed during a Thursday interview that the commander-in-chief’s intentions to buy Greenland from Denmark are genuine and “not a joke.”
Rubio, a former Florida senator, told SiriusXM host Megyn Kelly that Trump’s desire to purchase the Arctic autonomous territory is based on national security concerns for the U.S. and the rest of the world as China increases its activities in the region.
