Golden Finance reported that at a press conference held at Mar-a-Lago, U.S. President-elect Trump made a number of shocking statements in just one hour and escalated his remarks on sovereignty issues related to Canada and other countries. He called for the use of economic means to absorb Canada as part of the United States, and did not rule out the use of force to seize the Panama Canal and Greenland, and asked NATO countries to increase defense spending to 5% of GDP. He also vowed that "the Middle East will descend into chaos" if Hamas does not release the Israeli hostages before he takes office. In addition, Trump also promised to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America." He did not explain how these seemingly impossible promises would be achieved, other than threatening to impose tariffs on uncooperative countries, including Denmark. In response, many parties responded to Trump's relevant remarks. Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau said that Canada could not become a state of the United States. The country's foreign minister said that he would never retreat in the face of threats; the Danish Prime Minister reiterated that Greenland is not for sale; the President of Panama responded that he would not back down under Trump. Before taking office, he commented on Trump’s remarks about the Panama Canal. Foreign media commented that these words of Trump are consistent with a bolder posture, that is, Trump believes that he has been authorized (by the people and the Electoral College) to speak and act almost as he wants.
