At a press conference held at the White House, the Vice President of the U.S. JD Vance talked about three pressing points of concern in the international arena. He covered the issues of Greenland, protesting people in Iran, and the situation in Venezuela. His comments were inclined to the US national interests and world peace.
Greenland and US Security Issues
- JD Vance asked the European leaders to give serious consideration to the statements made by President Donald Trump regarding Greenland. He asserted that the Greenland issue attracts the attention of enemy states which would endanger the US and the whole missile defense system.
- He cited that Greenland is a key location for US state security. In Vance’s view, the European nations should prioritize their security even more. If they don’t, then the US might have to take measures.
- Vance further revealed that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is scheduled to meet the Greenland and Danish leaders next week. The meeting is intended to articulate the US stance on the matter clearly.
US Stance on Iran Protests
- Vance made it clear that peaceful protestors in Iran have the backing of the United States. He said that the Iranian government should pay attention to its people’s needs.
- He further added that President Trump is likely to make a statement in the coming days about the possible courses of action concerning Iran. Vance made it clear that the US is with all people globally in their fight for rights.
US Situation Review in Venezuela
- Vance reported on Venezuela that he is doing daily review meetings under President Trump’s direction. He added that the US is on time with developments in the country very closely.
- He told that to ensure the new government's alignment with US interests in Venezuela, certain measures are being taken.
