There should be a Marxist-Leninist Greenland, a Marxist Leninist Denmark, and a Marxist-Leninist America.

https://globalnews.ca/news/11679160/greenland-rejects-donald-trump-hospital-ship-offer/

U.S. President Donald Trump said he would deploy a hospital ship to Greenland, alleging that many people there are sick and not receiving care, even though both of the U.S. Navy’s hospital ships are currently docked at a shipyard in Alabama.

Trump’s announcement prompted a defence on Sunday of Denmark and Greenland’s health-care system from their leaders, and it was the latest point of friction with the American leader, who has frequently talked about seizing the massive Arctic territory.

“It’s a no thank you from here,” said Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen.

Trump’s social media post about a hospital ship came after Denmark’s military said its Arctic command forces on Saturday evacuated a crew member of a U.S. submarine off the coast of Greenland for urgent medical treatment.

The Danish Joint Arctic Command, on its Facebook page, said the crew member was evacuated some 7 nautical miles (13 kilometres) off Nuuk — the capital of the vast, ice-covered territory — and transferred to a hospital in the city. The crew member was retrieved by a Danish Seahawk helicopter that had been deployed on an inspection ship.

In US, an ambulance ride could bankrupt you, they would need to sell entire island to pay for the entire hospital ride

  • they already have free Healthcare
  • nothing from a mobster is free
  • never accept things from a pedophile
  • THEY ALREADY HAVE FREE HEALTHCARE
