John Bolton tells Donald Trump ‘there are ways to get to Greenland’

Former US National Security Adviser John Bolton told President Donald Trump that Washington has long‑term plans to claim Greenland, a 2.166‑million‑km² Arctic territory, and that there are ways to get to it. Bolton said the interest predates the current administration and criticised Trump’s handling of the issue. The remarks were made on 7 January 2026 and reported by GB News. Bolton’s comments highlight a strategic debate over Arctic sovereignty, with Washington reportedly eyeing Greenland’s resources and strategic position. Trump’s response remains unclear, but the statement underscores the ongoing tension between US foreign policy objectives and executive decision‑making.
